School starts too early nowadays. As kids we could rely on easing into the fall gradually. We’d be weaned from the carefree summer nights by earlier sunsets until Labor Day arrived, and by then it just seemed right. There was something convincing about the Labor Day benchmark in time, it just made sense.
My kids started school last Monday, August 23rd. They launched right into the year no problem, so why am I still reeling?
I miss making dinner at 7pm-ish and riding bikes ’til dark. I miss our adventures. I miss my babies

I remember starting school after Labor Day!
My daughter started on August 16th, seems way to early to me too!!
