My Summer Memories

When I look back on the summer of 2012, here's what I will want to remember:

life in the rental house...kowabungas in the swimming pool...boomerangs in the swing...time to explore a new backyard...


long bike rides/walks down by the creek or to GranGran and PopPop's...reading Harry Potter books to Philip and Daniel...picnics at the swimming pool...


Magic Tree House books...watching the Olympics...our trips to Walmart and the attention we inevitably attracted...the arrival of baby Campbell..
.

daily visits to our house to see the construction progress...lunches out with GranGran...trips to the beach...dance parties with DJ Master Daniel...



walks to Old Dutch simply because we hadn't left the house that day...time with cousins - both McCalls and Watsons...homemade playdough...breakfast at Krispy Kreme...


afternoon naps with William...our first missing teeth...watching Daniel eat, sleep, and live in his SPS uniform...watching JohnJohn outgrow everything in his closet (even newly made things!)...


reading Curious George to William only to find all boys in my lap...a gruesome work schedule that kept Daddy from missing lots of the fun...trips to the playground to let off a little steam...


Dearest little boys...what a pleasure it is to stay at home with you.  These memories will carry me for a lifetime...I hope they carry you too.
