No school what?

Is it just me or does it seem as if there is a lot of days off for schools now days.  When I was in school it felt like forever since we had a day off or early release.  Having my seven year old in my home makes you realize how many days they actually get off.  I wouldn't go as far as to say I am complaining but you sure don't realize how much more work a seven year old is until you already have a houseful and add that age in.  It's worse when they don't have another child their age to play with.  Glad we have social gatherings with friends or family with children around that same age.  Granted it can be pretty entertaining the things that they can come up with.  But sometimes the kids can just be in your face.  If I think it's bad now wait until summer.  That will be another long 3 months.  Hopefully this summer will be more fun for him and he will hopefully be able to get together with friends near his age or make friends with our neighbor children.  God has a fun sense of humor when He wants to doesn't He.  If you don't think so feel free to hold a conversation with my seven year old any time you please.  I can almost guarantee you will be entertained.
