Happy Not-Back-To-School Day!

Most of the public and private school students head back to class tomorrow. I plan on enjoying a late morning in bed, maybe a bit of hot cocoa. :)

Since we began homeschooling, DD's schedule has slipped back a couple of hours. Compared to her public school friends, she's up late and sleeps in late. However, her schedule seems to be much closer to what recent research suggests is the healthiest one for kids her age, so I'm good with us being a bit different. Since I have evening classes, it all works out perfectly for us anyway. :) No stressful mornings trying to get her up and off to school hours before her body wants to be awake, no missing out on time with her since she's in school all day and I'm at class all night.......

Sometimes, it's the things we *don't* have to do that are the most sanity-making.

So, whether your family is up at 5 am or still snuggled away under warm blankets at 10, here's a cocoa-toast to the freedom to work on our own personal schedules!
