Egad! Where did July go? Hello? Did it get stuck in the laundry chute? Did it get tossed out with the pizza boxes? Who skipped July and set us on a collision course for August?

I know I slept late, but give me a break!

School starts August 19th. And although it cheers the heart of many a parent to have the new year get underway, I still remember what it was like as a kid to face the dreaded end of summer. I feel for my kids, I really do. This summer has gone by way too fast.
