Dec 10 - Summer Break
Each June, I feel the excitement of the upcoming summer break.
As a kid, summer break meant long days spent at the pool, catching fireflies in glass jars at dusk, and a trip to the beach with my family. It was 10 weeks of possibility and freedom!
These days, I don’t have a summer break that is as long as I had when I was a kid, but I still try to capture and hold on to the same feelings of possibility, freedom, and excitement that the summer season holds. I try to spend as much time outdoors as possible, create a less structured schedule for my family, and make sure to take a nice vacation out of town.
This piece makes me think of summer break. It’s full of the same excitement and possibility that I continue to feel each year as the days get longer and the last day of school approaches.
