Last super-relaxing school morning

The end is here. And I am not at all happy that my sweet, blissful, super-relaxing school mornings are over. This school year, Gracie and Sarah were "late birds," which meant that they started school at 9:45 every day. So on my non-working days, I would have the sweetest mornings. After showering, I'd get in my comfy-cozy sweats, get the girls breakfast, pour my coffee, get my own breakfast, sit at the table and read the newspaper while sipping my delicious cup o' joe and eating my usual breakfast of oatmeal. After perusing the paper, I'd get onto my computer and surf around the net and check email. Then around 9am, I'd start getting the girls ready for school, and we'd head out for our quiet walk to school around 9:35. Oh how I loved my mornings. And I'm so terribly sad that it will never be that way again.

Starting next year, the girls start school at 7:50am. The traffic is dreadful. It's hard to cross Van Buren Street. And we're not going to have any time to relax, drink coffee, read the paper, or the like. Boo hoo.

I will always have warm fuzzy feelings for my super awesome kindergarten mornings.
