I have only a short time to write this morning. I didn't get much sleep last night so as a result I overslept this morning. I am trying to jumpstart with some coffee but so far no luck. The root of this poor sleep, having a senior in the house! Looming scholarship deadlines, essays, college applications, senior trips, college visits... The list goes on and on and on. I spent the evening (well, after a wonderful time with my awesome Waters Edge Community Group!) helping Belle finish some scholarship essays. This was not a wonderful, bonding moment. It was stressful and painful for us both. We approach writing very differently and this leads to many confrontations. By the final essay and at almost 10:00 PM we were both in the just write anything mode. That isn't really where you need or want to be. So, my friends with middle schoolers, just start now!
