He Was Really In First Class

I haven’t been posting every day lately, mostly because it is the end of the school year and I am feeling pretty wrung out. Parents, you know what I am talking about. Non-parents, you can get a good idea from this awesome piece by blogger Jen Hatmaker that went viral a few days ago. Here is an excerpt:

We are limping, limping across the finish line, folks. I tapped out somewhere in April and at this point, it is a miracle my kids are still even going to school. I haven’t checked homework folders in three weeks, because, well, I just can’t. Cannot. Can. Not. I can’t look at the homework in the folder. Is there homework in the folder? I don’t even know. Are other moms still looking in the homework folder? I don’t even care.

Amen, sister.

I do have a piece on Frugal Travel Guy today, so if you would like to read a travel story about when I was a new mom traveling with Bird, here it is.

And I am trying to gather my energy to write a real post in the near future. I promise.

  1. Thank you for the reminder that some people are awesome. I’m motivated to be one of them.

  2. hang in there Pixie, summer is almost here and then your fabulous family travels! Love the post on the guy in first class, appreciate a parents perspective (I don’t have kids). As you and your kids race to the finish line of this year of school, I think back on my own childhood and that incredible feeling of summer vacation starting. Such a memorable magical feeling!
