I can hear my grandfather saying the same things...and yes, where is the common sense. I too, love summer. Benjamin got out on Thursday and we both are so excited. It is different from when I home schooled, not better, just different. We are ready for a different type of learning...........nature will be the biggest part of our summer. Enjoy, enjoy your family and those grandchildren, reading and creating.

I remember walking to a small "mom and pop" store for snow cones, during the summer. And if we didn't have money for a snow cone - no worries - we passed a cemetery on our way, we would collect any glass bottles that were tossed along the road. They were valuable and we turned them into the little store to retrieve their "deposit" money. Always enough for a snow cone or two !<br />Loving summer !<br />RoseThree Sheep Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16206854154222498852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-50545294059615010012016-06-02T18:30:05.508-07:002016-06-02T18:30:05.508-07:00I'm like Cathy, mid 80's are enough for me...I'm like Cathy, mid 80's are enough for me.

I grew up in a small town and my summers centered around the outdoor public swimming pool. Loved it. Five of my eight grands live in the country and they appreciate all those little nature-ly things. The other three townie grands still are pretty observant of nature and the great outdoors. <br /><br />Your mom sounds like she was a wonderful, thoughtful woman who was in love with her children. You are blessed. ~JodyGumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-74564314159389654012016-06-02T17:20:11.719-07:002016-06-02T17:20:11.719-07:00I could not take that heat I love the warmth but 8...I could not take that heat I love the warmth but 80's are good for me.<br />Cathyacorn hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503414190541111706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-73993558538104960022016-06-02T14:56:38.865-07:002016-06-02T14:56:38.865-07:00i am glad you enjoy the heat because it sounds lik...i am glad you enjoy the heat because it sounds like you have plenty.TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-5263603054268504232016-06-02T14:38:42.683-07:002016-06-02T14:38:42.683-07:00Oh Kim!

You are a good writer, you know that don't you? I remember climbing onto the book mobile in the summer, it's one of my fondest memories. I had good summers too when I was growing up. Not everything was good that happened in my life, but there were some memorable events that kids now days won't get to experience. We spent most of our time outside, playing in trees, playing with pets, roaming the woods, playing in a creek. For me, the last day of school was like being freed from jail! And when I'd see the yellow school bus in September, I could have just cried. I loved being home with my mom. Your flowers are really pretty, and yes, I noticed people think wild animals will react just like tame ones... not so.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15471639876072617577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-77650735127174582052016-06-02T12:58:27.041-07:002016-06-02T12:58:27.041-07:00Your wish for your grandchildren would be my wish ...Your wish for your grandchildren would be my wish for me.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219479223227928561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-58322264143333603722016-06-02T12:16:40.756-07:002016-06-02T12:16:40.756-07:00Yay for summer pleasures!

I am sad kids now will never know summers as such. It is nice to have air-conditioning though. Your flower pictures are so pretty. The zinnias knock me out.
