Goodbye Summer

My kids have not stepped foot in a school since March.
While some children would probably be chomping at the bit to get back to routine- not my kids.
They loved being quarantine.
They love summer.
They love home.
They remind me of simpler time when our young hearts were not quite weighed down with all of the problems in the world.
Tonight we say 'Goodbye' to watching movies late at night, 
to "car" birthday parades,
sleeping in while the fan blows cool air, 
swimming in the heat until too tired to suntan, 
ice cream dinners, 
walks on the trail,
napping with Maggie Cuddles, 
cooking hotdogs on the grill under the stars, 
splashing in the swirly creek, 
giggling with cousins on a weeknight...
Goodbye Summer
