Your kids’ toes now hang over the edge of the flip-flops you bought them in May, but you can find only winter boots at the store.- You are billing the tub of Parmesan cheese and the lone pickle floating in the jar at the back of the fridge as a snack.
- Your vacuum bag is filled with sand and those little pink and blue plastic playing pieces from the game of “Life.”
- When you found a picture of the snow cave the kids made last January, it sent you into a fit of giggles.
- It appears that you have redecorated the bathroom in Early Swimsuit.
- There’s smoke coming out of the Wii.
- The kids are dreading homework. You are dreading the task of matching up socks.
- Uttering these two words can send panic throughout the house: “book report.”
- Your car smells like summer (i.e. wet towels, potato chip crumbs, dried pink lemonade and bait.)
- Yesterday, you swung around expecting to see the school bus, only to discover the UPS truck. And then you cried. Just a little.

Love it! You know how to crack me up. Every day I check the Home Access Center to see if they’ve posted my seventh grader’s schedule yet. Is that obsessive? And I had to match up a couple of pairs of socks on the weekend because the boys’ grandmother took them sneaker shopping.
So funny! Because it’s all so true
Ah, Jen, you nailed it. I keep walking into Target and feeling a tiny surge of delight in seeing all the school supplies… Love, love, love my kid, but I’m READY!
This list is so hilarious! Thank you for brightening my afternoon.
