Dear Summer,

     I really like you.  You have only just begun, but I'm already extremely thankful for what you give.  I am thankful for the carefree attitude you stir, the impromptu ice cream nights with friends, and most of all the 'free' time you give.  
Thank you for the time to get projects done.



Thank you for the time to teach my girls how to help around the house.


Thank you for the time to read books


and spend hours outside working in the garden.


Thank you for the time to be spontaneous,


for picnic lunches,



and time to celebrate- like baking cookies on 
'National Peanut butter Cookie Day'
 
 and eat them on the porch on a rainy afternoon.



Thank you for late nights and sleeping in mornings.  Thank you for trips to look forward to and days with  nothing on the calender.  
All this to say, Summer, I really dig you!

Your Pal,
Amy
