The Last of the Summer Days


August is really flying by. Making me realize that it will soon be time to trade in the tees for a hoodie, the shorts for jeans and the worst !! The flipflops for shoes ....
So until then , we're not going to miss one second of summer beauty ,
One second of heat from the blazing sun ....
We will make time ....
to fill up the water balloons ....
for one last water fight ....
to enjoy the beauty of the flowers ....
to wear those rubber boots as long as he can ....
before they have to be packed away until spring ....
to swing ....
and see our shadows ....
to lay in the grass before it's covered with snow ....
to enjoy the beauty that's all around us ....
for one last picnic ....
before all the bugs are gone for the winter ....
for sitting in the shade ....
 swimming with the cousins at least one more time ....
having fun splashing ....
and floating in the hot sun ....
So until the leaves start falling , we'll soak up those last few days of summer ....

To see your shadow! So true.. Those days are rare over this part of the world right now.. It's been so wet and cold. I couldn't have done it without my uggies!
