My oldest child finished his school year yesterday. My youngest closes her year next Friday. So, from where I sit, the biggest disruption on the horizon is a rotating scramble over the next several months of getting children to and from a host of camps, interfering with a now finely honed schedule of making it to our Philadelphia office on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. (I’m not complaining. I’ll save that for the Philadelphia city employees who found out two weeks ago that they would be expected in the office five days a week starting July 15—their own summer camp plans be damned.)
