The one and only good thing about the New York City school year going so late into June is that we don’t have to start thinking about ending summer until Labor Day!  So while I am completely enjoying all the First Day of School pictures from the rest of the country, I am happy to say that at 10:45 this morning Huck and I are still in our pajamas trying to figure out what to do with the rest of our day.  Oh, don’t get me wrong: it won’t be non-stop fun.  There’ll be a few hours spent at the church while I do some work and Huck entertains himself, and most likely I’ll drag him around town to run errands.  There will probably be a grumpy mood and several arguments and more than a little boredom.  But there will also probably be a popsicle and a trip to the playground and some Phineas and Ferb and no bedtime in sight.

And THAT’S summertime!
