Sunny Saturdays

As summer is nearing to an end and fall soon to be upon us I am taking every opportunity to let the kids play outside. Summers seemed to last forever as a kid. Now experiencing them as a mother they whizz by just like every other part of the year seems to. I'm sensing a theme for this blog-- the eeriness of time passing progressively faster and faster, hmmm... Although time seems to be slipping through my grasps, inching further and further out of reach, I'm sure time is always hanging around my kids, as it seemed to do with me not so long ago. So I try my best to slow down and make their long lasting moments the best they can be. While I may not have the opportunity during the week to do as much with my kiddos, I sure try to make up for it on the weekends, (although we are trying to implement a family game night with the classic Candyland. More to come on that in another post, although). Ahh yes, sunny Saturdays are made for riding bikes, creating temporary sidewalk art with chalk, and of course eating ice cream. The nostalgia I hope to create for my children is that of summer filled with family fun and togetherness. Here is just a glimpse of our fun day in the sun.
As times seems to last as long at the chalk artwork on my cement, here's to sunny Saturdays and precious time spent with the ones I love the most.
