“Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.”—Henry David Thoreau
Today I realized that our summer vacation was half way over. And I wanted to cry. (I doubt I’ll ever really grow up.)
Have they breathed the air? Tasted the drink? And felt the influence of summer?
Have they breathed the air? Tasted the drink? And felt the influence of summer?
I hope so, and if not I still have the entire second half of our vacation waiting for us to slurp more snow cones, make homemade ice cream, sleep with the windows open, and feel the warm sun on our skin before it’s back to sweaters and school.
Have an excellent weekend. Drink some lemonade and slather on the sunscreen. These days won’t last forever. Let’s enjoy them while we have them.

I’m only 1/5 into my vacation – and I intend to just BE – to fully enjoy the season – it’s so short here in Norway – but we will love every second of it. Tone

Our summer is flying by as well. I just can’t get over how fast time has been going lately.
