Am I actually a really lame mom?

Every day my kids ask me about going to school. The older one says "When do we get to go back to school?" and the little one just plaintively wails "Schhooolll. Schhoool. I wanna go to school!" And every day, I say cheerful as can be "In the summer it's a vacation from school. We do fun stuff together, go to the playground, to the library, play with your friends...." And they just ask again about school. So, I offer up the big things I have to offer over school - we can go to the zoo! Grandpa's beach-house! Out for ice-cream! And still, they just want to go to school. Which makes me have to wonder, is it really that bad hanging out with me? And, more to the point, is it time I called their school and asked them if they have two spaces for the last three weeks of camp?
