There are pros and cons to summertime. Things I love, things I don’t. See if you can relate to any of these.
LOVE
Not putting winter coats on the kids
The whir of a lawn mower
Burgers on the grill
The smell of suntan lotion
Smores on the fire
Lightning bugs in a jar
Flipflops
The ice-cream truck
Sidewalk chalk
Picnics
Dining at an outdoor restaurant
Ice-cream cones
State Fair
Outdoor concerts
Flowers in bloom
Baseball games
Pedicures
DON’T
Sunburns
Bikinis
Applying sunblock to squirming children
Humidity
Flies and swatting them
Telling kids to close the door to keep those flies out
Explaining to those same kids why it’s not dark, but they still have to go to bed
Ants and mosquitos
Bugspray
Hearing ‘I’m bored’ from the kids
When it ends.

If I have to listen to one more "I'm bored" I think I'm going to take all electronics out of the house and then see how my 11 year old feels. Kids today don't know how good they've got it. Oh geez, did I really just say that? Now I just sound like my mother!Love ya, DebMichellewww.moxiemomma.com
