What Do You Love About Summer?
user
by Risa Green (
Tales from the Mommy Track)
I love summer.
I love having nowhere to be, no carpools to drive, no schedules
to stick to.
I love the smell of sunscreen mixed with Popsicle juice.
I love drinking sangria with friends while the kids swim in the
pool. I love doing laundry that consists entirely of towels.
I love playing family domino tournaments until ten o’clock at
night, then sleeping in until nine. I love going out for chocolate
chip pancakes at ten.
I love watching fireworks on July 4th. I love cold watermelon on
a hot day. I love the sound of the ice cream truck as it jingles
through the neighborhood.

I love the feeling of freedom and the beauty of it all. Flowers ,sunny days.Lazy days of relaxation. Breezy evenings, eating outdoor,I think it is heaven. Summer is the best time of year.

Summer reminds me of falling in love with my husband and all the fun we have together. I love the smell of sunblock and swimming with friends and family, and the late nights sitting on the porch with the summer breeze.
