Summer holidays are here so that means the oldest is home for two months.
When it was just her and during this time of year while my husband worked, I had no issues filling up her day with activities to keep her busy. Now she is a teenager and finds what the three year old wants to do uncool. Heck even things I suggest are uncool.
When it was my oldest and the little dude it was also easy to plan activities to keep the little guy busy. The oldest was not forced to participate in the activities, but was encouraged to help out.
This year I am drowning. I have the moody teenager, the busy three year old and now a three month old. All with very unique needs and forms of entertainment. I am thankful that the little guy is going to daycare three times a week so he can get away and play and be with his friends.
Next week my oldest is heading off to camp for two weeks. She may decide to stay up with her grandparents for longer though. Only time will tell.
Is it sad that I am hoping for summer holidays to be over already?
