Summer

Summer officially started almost 3 weeks ago but it didn't even occur to me to to make a blog post about it.  Then I thought about it and realized how important it is to me, and here we are.  Summer can be interpreted many different ways by each individual.

 

1. For the kids in elementary school it means no more homework, no more worries, just playing with their buddies without a care in the world.

2. For the junior high to high school kids it could mean sports camps, jobs, young love, family trips, etc.

3. For the college kids (my age) it means a time of growth, an opportunity to give it your all in everything you do, a time to laugh, love, and enjoy the company of your loved ones. It means travel, adventures, risks, boating, swimming and fun.  

The only downside to summer is that September comes too fast (even though it's a great month, JDR) Before we know it we are back into the school/work grind, the sun starts to set earlier, and we realize that the summer dream has come to an end. Until next year. 

Fortunately for us we still have another 2 and a half months!  Carpe Diem!
