I can
imagine the sinking feeling in the pit of their stomachs as kids see that sign.
And when they see the Back To School aisle at the local Target store, they have
to feel a little panic.
For me,
it was a reminder that we have only a few more months of nice weather here in
Minnesota. Time to get to the beach, borrow a friend’s cabin for a weekend,
take a drive with the bikes and explore a new trail, and vow to do more
grilling!
Instead
of looking at it as ‘summer’s half over,’ I’ll view it as ‘we have a whole
half-summer left!’
What
are you going to do with the rest of the season? Don’t wait too long - time
does have a way of slipping away on us.
Enjoy
the second half of summer!

Our kids go back to school the week before Labor Day! To me, fall means back to normal, but I know my girls are enjoying their freedom. I'm taking advantage of the beautiful weather to hike every day. Enjoy your summer, Laura.
My super-organized daughter (she didn't get it from me) has a Summer Bucket List for her kids--they had to contribute to it along with ideas from her. She posted the list in the family room where they see it each day and check off the things they've done. I wish I'd thought of that when my kids were young. Because the kiddies still take naps, the activities are usually morning only. So it isn't a go-go-go summer for Mom or kids.
Somehow I got a super-organized daughter too. Must skip a generation or two. September used to mean school clothes shopping. Now it means not so crowded at the Y. Things do change. I'm with Jannine. Nothing beats a summertime walk.
When I was a kid and spent every possible day at the beach, I used to hate the arrival of the 4th of July because it was the demarcation line that signified the official beach season was half over. When I read your headline, I thought, The summer can't be half over! It isn't yet the 4th of .... Oh wait, we just celebrated that last week, didn't we? :-) Wishing everyone a happy Summer Part II!
