Summer's End

It's a rainy day and school starts tomorrow for my three high-school age boys. College-age son heads back to school on Sunday and my little guy starts 8th grade next Monday. So summer is coming to an end -- camp, summer jobs, sleeping in late, watching too many reruns of "Simpsons" -- nearly over.

As much as I'm looking forward to getting everyone back on some sort of routine, it's a bummer. Right now, as I work in my office, I can hear three of my guys laughing together in the kitchen. It's a sweet sound. One guy is in the basement, yelling at a video game. The others are out and about until it's time to be fed again -- yes, we go through a LOT of food.

Somehow, they all got another year older. Mind-boggling.

So, for one more summer day, choose happy.
