Where’d July go? Blink.<\/p>\n
Apparently (I venture to guess) many children are saying this too, since School begins this week or next week, for many. Yikes!<\/p>\n
It’s not affecting MY children, they learn at home, and we don’t do things according to public or private schedules. We won’t get heavier into things until, well, not until we do.

As it goes, I’ve never seen such a quickly fleeing July, it being the month that is MY month, with my bday, sister, dad, hubby, and more, in it. It never was fast per se, even in adulthood. This year it went fast –I will guess due to hubby business travel.<\/p>\n

It seems earlier and earlier by and by. When I was young school didn’t begin until after Labor Day. Later it began the last week of August, then in another place it was the third week of August, but never earlier.
