“1. September is the time when kiddos go back to school and the parent who has stayed home during the summer, now has the ability to pick up a job to make up for the increased burden on families. I can see a rise here.”

Was there a similiar bump last year in sept? or is there a history of such bumps in sept?

Good question. I’ll have to take a look.
