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.
