Tomorrow is the first day of school. Tomorrow I become the mother of two high school students. Tomorrow my younger son begins his high school experience and my older son faces the last year of high school. Tomorrow I will have the house to myself by 7:00 a.m. Tomorrow I will begin a new exercise routine. Tomorrow will be the start of a year full of beginnings and endings. Tomorrow another school year will start that flies by to quickly.
Today it is still summer vacation and is filled with summertime plans; maybe a movie, maybe a hike and later a neighborhood cookout. Today I have two carefree boys with only thoughts of friends, the next meal and maybe another opportunity to play computer games. Today I am surrounded by family from the moment I wake up. Today I'll eat bar-b-q and cake. Today is the end of a summer that has passed by much too quickly.
