What now?

My four kids have been in school for about 4 weeks now. They are all doing great. So by now, you would think every closet in my house would be organized, the bathrooms cleaned, all my digital pictures from the last 5 years put onto a portable hard drive, and several scrapbook pages completed. Unfortunately I haven't even touched all those "projects" that I have been putting off for years saying that I would get it all done when my kids go to kindergarten.

I can't even really account for most of my "kid-free" hours. I know several hours have been spent in kindergarten with my boys. Mario tells me to cut the apron strings. But I know that the teachers need lots of help. At first when they went to school, I wanted to be selfish with my free time and not volunteer more than once a week at the school. But as the days went by and I found myself volunteering more and more, I realized that is where I want to be. I want to be at school with my kids. The teachers appreciate the extra hands. So for now, I am content with pushing off all my projects and just spending lots of time with my kids in school doing whatever I can to make kindergarten great! I know that by fourth or fifth grade (maybe even earlier since they are boys) they won't want me to come close to their class. I may embarrass them with all my hugs and kisses in front of their friends.

So if any of you have been wondering what I have been up to since all my kids have gone to school......kindergarten and loving it!
