Cure for the Summertime Blues

So, it's a few weeks into summertime. My kids are over the "fun" part of being together all the time. I'm over the "fun" part of being together all of the time. I have found that they are irritated with each other and with me and vice versa! (Only being honest here...) In addition, Kevin has been gone 14 of the last 17 days (which is irritating to all of us) and the days are long. 

What's my point?

Well, my point is that I've had grouchy times over the past few weeks. So, when the boys complained that they were so hot playing outside, I went over and turned on the sprinklers for them to run in. You would have thought it was Christmas morning by the joy I saw in their eyes. 

It didn't take much to have a good time and cool off (our tempers and their body temperatures!) and we all felt a little better about our summer so far!
