Sarah: Goodbye and thanks for everything
As I move to college this week, I am moved to take a moment to acknowledge the things that were great about this summer:
The totally cute kids (albeit sometimes crazy-making) that I nannied over the summer, and their mothers who are incredibly well-balanced and dedicated to their children. Nannies are not only for overworked, negligent parents. Thanks to these mothers for being fabulously normal.
The opportunity to spend time with my totally rockin' sister and bask in our one-brainedness. Also, hanging out with her AND her husband. I think they're both great, and I'm glad that they are such close friends.
Spending time in my parents' house, realizing how much they care about our family.
Getting in touch with friends from high school that like me, despite incredible ditziness on the subject of sticking to plans made.
Not to beat the family horse to death, but I enjoyed spending time with my brothers, who have turned into cool people, despite sometimes skeptical opinions on my part.
Friends from home, I'll miss you! It's back off to college I go. See you all on the flip side.
