End of Semester Thoughts
With the end of the semester quickly approaching, we started thinking again, about just how hard the kids have worked over the past several months. The long hours presented each day comprised of class assignments, papers, projects and tests, special events, practices, weekend visits with parents and friends – and, oh yea, I almost forgot, those late-night parties. When you stop and think about just how busy they were you can imagine their relief as they wrap-up finals and prepare for a nice long Holiday break.
We spent the past few days preparing too – making sure the house is loaded with all of their favorite foods, that each and every TV remote has fresh batteries, and we’ve placed large comfy pillows in strategic places throughout the house for those “I need a nap� moments we’re sure will occur.
As the semester winds down and the realization that they did “ok� sinks in we will be reemphasizing just how first semester success has opened new doors of learning and that continued success will clear a path to better living.
Enjoy the break – enjoy the time with family and friends – enjoy those naps. Savor every moment of the Holidays – that next semester grind is waiting just around the corner for you to conquer it too.
Peace and Joy of the Holidays to you all.
