From The Confessional: 'I Want To Go On A Vacation By Myself'

Summer vacation has arrived for most everybody in America by this point. So, quick show of hands: How many of you are already DONE? Let's go to the Scary Mommy Confessional for a quick check-in. One reader says: "Summer is not fun for stay at home moms." Another admits: "I am a yes mom all summer. Just let me enjoy it too." But some people live for these lazy weeks: "I actually love having my kids home all the time. I can't relate to the parents who dread it."
