The 2008-2009 school year came to an anti-climatic close Thursday when I turned in my classroom keys for the summer. I felt like I should celebrate an end of hard year... but I didn't really feel like I had a lot of success on my part to celebrate. And I need to go back to tie up loose ends in the next week. I then got in the car to meet up with Lindsey to go to ATL for a mini AOPi reunion (which I will post about later.) I am not sure that the fact it is summer has sunk in. Perhaps tonight when I fall into bed and don't set an alarm. Or tomorrow when I kiss Adam goodbye and he leaves the house instead of vice versa. Or maybe Wednesday when I still at home playing with Noah and Charlie. To say I am excited is an understatement! I do have big plans for toddler art and play, organization, decorating, getting fit, cooking for my husband, encouraging friends, studying God's Word, but most of all I plan to RELAX! I thought I'd make a brief list of things I love about summer:
long lasting daylight
sleeping past six thirty
guilt free lounging
drive in movies
fireworks
sounds of children playing in the neighborhood
fresh produce
grilling out
pools
sprinklers
cooling off
cool whip and fruit
slow pace
watermelon
day trips
sun
running the ceiling fans
bright colors
rest
What do you love about summer?
