editing because I'm a big whiney baby!
Edited 7/22/2009 2:24 pm ET by stagemomx3
I know when I was in 1st grade, we were in school before Labor Day. I *know* this because my mom was pregnant (due in Nov), and I remember finding out the reason we were off of school (or maybe we weren't off of school, but the name of the holiday came up), and we were driving into the school parking lot and I was asking my mom if that was when she was going to have the baby. A happy memory...
Another happy memory from that time was she was able to drive again ON my birthday (I'm not sure why she had to wait 3 weeks to drive, but I guess that's how it was in 1980), but she didn't bring me to school--my grandpa did as he had been. But she came to school with cupcakes for my birthday and surprised me with her being able to drive. Sounds silly now, but I remember being happy about it...LOL. (And it wasn't because I didn't like my grandpa driving me to school, because I did---another happy memory...he died in 1983 and my mom died in 1985).
I figured it out.
I sent you a shout out Chel.
Heard a mom complaining about us going back so early. Because it's Louisiana and it's hot. Well, we can't just go to school when it's not hot...that would be only a few months out of the year. We hit the 100s in June! You can't have it both ways--out before it gets too hot (we hit up to 98 before school let out...early April is when it's last cool) and not back until it cools down (which would be late Oct).
