For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1, NLT
Watermelon slices, later evenings riding bicycles and digging in dirt. Swimming all day and going to bed exhausted. Getting our work done earlier so we can play later. Vacation Bible School and road trips. Popsicles and homemade ice cream. Good books and popcorn movie nights. Worms and fishing holes. Sandy shoes and car floorboards.
These are the things of summer.
We are enjoying our summer break already. Last night, I found my son sound asleep in his Spiderman costume. Our daughter recently learned to ride her bike all by herself and doesn’t want to come inside…or stay inside too long.
So the saying goes, the days are long, but the years are short.
These are the joyful activities of summer. How are you spending your summer? How are you making memories with those you love?
