The Glorious Days of Summer

Ahhhh... summer.  Staying up late, taking life at our own pace, sleeping in (by about 20 minutes... but you know...), trips and swimming.

The glorious days of summer stand out as special this year more than any other because we're on legitimate summer break for the first time ever.  After 9 months of homework, early bedtimes, and getting to school before the tardy bell, we are best able to appreciate the pace of life that summer allows us.

Some days we pack full of activity.  But no worries; if we're tired the next day, no one's grades or conduct will suffer.  Some nights we stay up way past our usual bedtime.  Some days we take life super slow and hang out at home.  The beauty of summer is in the flexibility.  And the togetherness.

First grade is coming for us, but not before we squeeze a lot more summer out of these last few weeks.   Summer is glorious, and we're going to use up every last bit of it while we can!
