And now you're all thinking of Christmas carols, let me remind you that it's only May! But, there are only four more days of school, the rain has made the grass green, the trees are budding, the sun is shining and summer is just around the corner!!!
Summer. Some people say Spring is the start of something new, but summer is just as much of a fresh start. Some people will start this summer with a move, or an engagement, or a wedding, maybe even a baby. Some people will be closing one chapter of life, while beginning to write an entirely new one.
This summer should have some great adventures ahead, but I do hope to connect with more people. Last week I had the chance to Skype with an old friend. It wasn't until after we had talked for two hours that I realized he really was an old friend, my oldest friend. People come and go in life, but it's always a blessing to be able to reconnect.
I hope this summer, whatever it may entail for us all, is a summer of adventure, excitement and relaxation. Take some time to laugh, to love and to live. I promise you it will be worth it, and in the end, we'll all be able to enjoy the simplicity of a clear summer night with the ones we hold closest to our hearts.
