Sitting on the deck of our cottage, listening to the loons (and Tom and Jerry in the background) I am looking around at the lake and noticing one thing...
Summer is slowly on it's way it
The nights are colder
The days are getting shorter and I even saw some early leaves changing color on the drive up (gasp)
I'm not ready for summer to go...
I like the freedom of not having to be locked into a schedule
I like having both boys around (most of the time)
I love being able to be outside All day and night, the warm sun on my skin
So many things to do..biking, hiking, Swimming, exploring, kicking the soccer ball around, and seeing people... Every where, out and about
Since our move back to Vermont 2 years ago, after being gone and in the south for 15+ years..I'm not used to the fact that once the cold weather hits, everyone slips back into their warm homes and burrows deep into themselves to hibernate for the winter
I am not used to being stuck inside with 2 young boys alone all winter when it gets dark at 4 pm..limited in what we can do, mainly because of the sheer hassle of getting us all out of the house in our winter clothes
The long winter looms ahead looking gloomy to me, as I am still new to the area, and have yet to make any real friendships yet..and my husband still needs to be at the office, well basically all day and night ..
Hmmmmmmmmmm ..time for mommy to make some friends
For now I will go back to listening to the loons, enjoying a cool glass of Chardonnay, and relish in the fact that we have nothing to do all day tomorrow except play in the sun
