It's been a long, lovely summer. The kids and I have swum in the ocean (from beaches in two states), the Long Island Sound and the largest lake in Connecticut. We've visited family and friends, and have attended about three hundred separate parties and events.
But now it's over, and it's time for fresh sneakers, sharpened pencils and that "new backpack" smell. 'Cause I've had it with all of the fun and insanity, and if these kids don't go back to school soon, I may just "happy" myself right into a psychotic break.

I love the happy holiday snaps... your children are beautiful.
I remember those wonderful long school holidays and I loved them.
My parents used to have a holiday apartment in Bournemouth on the south coast and we spent most of our summers there, my dad and their dad joining us at weekends... it was idyllic, but nothing lasts for ever...
I always wanted time to stand still when they were little, to capture each special moment... but now they're grown... aaaaaaaaahh
Cherish your little treasures and let them be children for as long as you can.
lotsa luv ann xxxxx
I'm right there with you - mine start school this morning and I am counting the minutes to the bus! Great pictures - your children look as though they had a wonderful summer!

Time to go back to school....And may I just say....God bless teachers!!
You are such a wonderful mother. The pictures are wonderful. Look at those happy faces. Em has been back to school for a few weeks. It is wonderful! :)
Great pix, Grace. Thank you for sharing them.
And don't worry... It'll be the Christmas holidays soon...
It makes me so sad to say goodbye to summer :0( I love to swim, and am going to try to get a few more dips in the pool before it's "officially" over. The shots of the kids are great :0)
Gorgeous snaps, babe!
You're lucky, South Africa's about to hit Summer and I dread every second of it (being Celtic-blooded). The temps here just soar and I don't exactly have an ass to dress skimpy, you know!!!! LOL!
