September

This past week was our first full-Fall week. All events that will weekly take place for the Richmonds were in full swing this week. Sunday - church a.m. followed by church p.m. Monday - work/kids in school, Zachary at soccer practise at 5:15pm. Wednesday - kids in school, Brooklyn in tap/ballet at 4:55pm. Friday - kids in school, Zachary at hockey at 3:40pm. Saturday morning - Zachary playing soccer at 9am. It turns out there are officially no more sleep-in days at our place.

And how do we feel about all this? Frankly, I had forgotten we did all this stuff last year. Theory about September - the natural light goes down, the activities go up and people are walking about in states of stress and flu. Vitamin C - I'm stockpiling it and making my kids have them at breakfast. Zachary had stomach flu last Wednesday night and I do NOT want to repeat that 11pm to 5pm shift again this winter.

On a happier note - there are more reasons than ever to put the kettle on and there are some really cute sweaters at Winners.
