Countdown to Summer

We are on the countdown... the countdown to Summer Vacation.  I am never sure if I should be excited or terrified.  I am in need of a break, so I am excited at the prospect of sleeping past 5:30 a.m., having time to plan and cook nutritious meals, attend yoga classes, organize my life and generally feel like a less-stressed out human.  On the other hand, I am facing long days with children who seem to have no purpose in life other than watch TV, eat and sleep for hours on end.  I have a funny feeling that by next week, I will be wishing for school to start up... at least for them!
