Hurrah for Sunshine!!!

I love spring. I love the sun. I love the green leaves on the trees I love not wanting to put a coat on when the wind blows. Outside the sun is shining and even though the wind is slightly cold it feels like spring. I am so excited for summer. I love not having school and swimming. I love jumping on the trampoline in the sprinkler for hours on end. I love how my freckles get darker and my hair lighter. I love walking around in the summer air at night, being outside in a t-shirt. I even like sunburns. They are painful, but it is all about summer. I love the smell of sunscreen. I love laughing as I run around the yard play games with Nathan, Allison and Sarah. I love suprising Beth by jumping on the trampoline when she is laying on it. I even like hearing the ice cream truck go by playing those songs over and over again. I like wearing shorts and feeling the wind on my legs. I love wearing sundresses on sunday. I love everything about summer, and spring. I love looking forward to it during these months when it rains. Hurrah for the sun! Hurrah for butterflys! Hurrah for the promise of spring we see every time the sun comes out. Hurrah for Sunshine!!!

wow - this post basically sums up all my unwritten feelings about summer. thanks Katie - you are amazing my dear!
basically after Valentine's Day every year, I just wish summer would come. it's incredible that I have one more quarter of school...I just want it to be over. but I have a ton to do between now and August, so I guess I shouldn't complain.




oh one more reason (the most important for me) - summer is when we buy tons of fruit all the time. and fruit is fantastically amazing. :) fruit + sun = happy girl.

Dorothy said...

poor lucy and lindy. how warm will it get when summer comes?

Katie said...

I love fruit to!!
Rasberries and Strawberries and blueberries. We have this awesome desert that is made out of fruit and a cake thing.

Katie said...

I think I need to put a new post soon.

Yes it is time Katie.

Last summer was unusual here, so I've heard. There only like 5 days that got above 70 degrees. Hopefully this summer will be better. But even if it is not, we will get our fair share of heat when we go down there.
