Mac’s summer break started today. Three weeks before Patrick and me. When I picked him up, the two of us went to lunch. He was in a rotten mood, rude and grouchy. Finally, in an exasperated tone, I said, “What is wrong with you? Why are you so mean?” He just looked down. Then it hit me.
“Are you sad that school is over and you won’t see your friends anymore?”
“Yes.”
He LOVED his teachers, his classmates and the activities.
I know he’ll be bored this summer. 🙂
