The summer break will be over for us this week. Classes at the high school began Monday for Sarah and Matt. Remy's first day of his last year in college began today, and Chris flies to Oklahoma City on Friday before heading back to the seminary the next morning.
Things will be quieter at home during the day, but I expect the level of school-related activities evenings and weekends to rise. For example, band activities include 10+ football games and 9+ band contests/festivals/performances, all before the Christmas break. Then there's the work Chuck and I will do as Co-Treasurers of the band boosters this school year. Yes, a husband and wife team now manage the budget for a band booster organization!
We may be busy now, but our time raising kids is winding down. I'll be teaching religious education classes next month and hopefully, for years to come, after being away from it for several years. I'm looking forward to using my gifts of teaching, writing, and crafting to lead young people closer to God as I enter the next phase of my life.
