This is the life!

I know stay-at-home mom's can get a bad rap and it may not be the glamorous job but, I want to say how much I love it! Raising my kids is the hardest and most fulfilling work I've ever done (and you know how much I love photography :) Having them in my care and knowing that they are at a stage of life where they need me and I'm here to serve them! Having said that...I did spend three days at the club lounging at the pool! I got tons of freckles and even a very little tan! I'm a 50+ sunscreen-er and my poor daughter (even though she has her daddy's skin) has to bathe in it too!

Hope you're having a wonderful summer. Take time to close your eyes and feel the sun and wind! Then open them to see all the amazing beauty everywhere. Summer is gorgeous. When I was in my 20's I used to make a list every summer and try to do everything on the list before the summer ended. I knew it would go by too fast! Sit outside...look for flowers...listen to kids playing...splash in the water...lay in the grass and look at the stars...forget to put on your make-up...let your sunglasses hold back your hair...smile!

What's your favorite part of summer? Give the rest of our readers ideas for what to do in the next couple of months.
