Given the unexpected and challenging things we are facing this year, I have even greater appreciation for how the change in seasons provides stability. We’re still about a week from the official start of summer, but I’m thinking about it today.
In many ways, summer can be miserable around here. I live on the Texas Gulf Coast, so our summers are full of heat, humidity, bugs, and the threat of hurricanes. Nevertheless, there are many special and enjoyable things about summer.

Oh I do just love summer! The longer, lighter days, the time spent outside, warm weather & sunshine, lazy laid back schedules, and yummy foods. Thanks for sharing with us at Encouraging Hearts and Home. Pinned.
