Oh what do you do in the Summertime...

We play at the park.


We ride around the neighborhood on a brand new scooter dressed as a Ninja.



We play games with cousins, like dressing up baby Benjamin.



We take rides in the jeep.



We eat S'mores for FHE.


We sell lemonade.

We feel proud to be a mom.

(Ray still can't pronounce the letter "L" so today he asked me if he could make a "wemon" stand...not a lemonade stand...a wemon stand. He sold 2 pitchers of lemonade and made $8.25! I was SO proud of him. It was so sweet and when the customers would walk away he'd yell, "Enjoy your wemonade!!" Totally one of those moments that make motherhood the best job on the planet.)

That's what WE do in the Summertime....how about you???

This is such a touching post Shannan. I'm so proud of you and grateful for your good example. We all need reminders that motherhood is meant to be fun and a role to be proud of. Thanks for this post! :)

So fun! Anna's been begging me to let her do a lemonade stand but it's been hard to justify with temperatures in the 60's. Maybe next week...
