Oh I wish we were starting! DD has two more weeks and she's driving us all nuts. It doesn't help that the public schools start this week and everything is about "back to school." We are trying to use the time to transition into having some discipline, organization, and structure (for all of us, this summer has been kind of slackerish).

Plus she's reading a book about a girl starting middle school (which she would be if she were at grade level) so there is much drama about missing out on the experience. I've been suggesting that starting her first high school classes might be a similar change... but she's not having it. I know part of this is just nerves about the more difficult (we hope) classes but the next two weeks can't pass fast enough.
