I’m noticing that as I get older, I don’t dread the end of summer nearly as much and it’s not just because Fall no longer means a new school year is starting for me. I think I’ve just come to appreciate the simpler pleasures and to make the best of whatever comes my way. I know how fortunate I am to have this life, so it would be a waste of time and energy to groan about my cold feet and noisy radiators (they’re not on yet, but soon!).
Here’s to fuzzy blankets, fireplaces burning, crunchy leaves, hot mochas, warm socks, pumpkin patches, hiking in the woods, movie nights, baking cookies, sweaters, and snuggling.
We’ve still got some warm days left, so enjoy those flip-flops while you can!
I’m with you, Jill – gotta love and appreciate the little things. The last day of summer is today I think, so happy fall to you as of tomorrow! (Love those summery images though!)
