Fired off my now annual email about summer break for the girls.
There's 11 weeks this year because we had no snow days. I'm off 3 1/2. XW is off 2. D13 is going to go to one overnight camp and another theater camp. D9 wants to go to three camps.
That means there are 3 1/2 open weeks for D13 and 2 1/2 weeks for D9. D13 keeps saying she'll be fine sitting home by herself. I think it's lazy parenting to do that. Plus, she's 13, boy issues have been paramount and I just don't like leaving her alone that much. There are several friends that have their kids home during the summer that we could approach about having her stay there.
This sparks an annual argument. So we'll see how that goes over.
Both of our sets of parents had stay at home moms so we could go anywhere and do anything, but the parents were home.
