Summer Days!!

It has gone too fast, kids being home for summer. I know a great deal of parents are truly excited for their kids to start school again, and I must say, I'm not.

I love having them at home, love to see them enjoy eachother, love our "lazy days" together, love our schedule we've created, love the freedom of teaching them whatever I want, exposing them to things that are important to our family. Love the memories we are creating. I know I am blessed to never miss one of them.

Everything seems just as it should be with them here with me, how they grow so fast, how yesterday is gone and tomorrow isn't promised. I hold fast to these fleeting moments!

So, here they are in their treehouse, on a warm summer day, under the cool shade of protective leaves, atop pillows they secretly took from their room, enjoying this moment.

100% boys, doing what boys do, creating this private little world just their own...

Isn't this what it's all about?
