Butterflies.Bubbles.Kittens.

It's hard to do much these days without breaking a sweat. Dog days of summer are here. Tonight, we enjoyed trying to catch some butterflies, bike riding, blowing bubbles, and holding our kittens. And my parents kept supplying us with produce. Tomatoes. Peaches. Blackberries. Plums. We are eating like kings, folks! Fresh from either our garden or mom and dad's. It's been a tasty month despite the intense heat and humidity. Next week at this time, we will put our second grader to bed who will then wake up in the morning, a third grader. His kid brother is starting Kindergarten the following afternoon. And baby sister is headed to preschool in a few weeks. Out with the old. In with the new. It's time for another transition. May we all be given the grace we need for the new season coming. I know I need an extra dose of it! But for now, here's to one more week of summer play. No schedules. No homework. No rushing. Ahhhhhhh....
