Swimming pools, oh god we are behind on swimming lessons. Scary rickety windy fire towers. Sunsets. Fireflies. Blooming zinnias from seed! Backyard blueberries. Homemade pizza, worth the effort? Tiny baby turtles. Horse camp and bunny obsession. Camping! and we slept! Not enough time in the woods. Butterflies and endless days in the creek. Neglected garden still provides. AND cousins swooping in to bring the big kid magic. Slip n slides and dead chickens. Zinnia fields and unripe peaches. Crawling towards a finish line. Panic under the surface.
