What is it about summertime?
What is it about summertime that makes us instantly relax and say, ahhh?

What is it about summertime that makes everything seem a little better, even if only temporarily?
What is it about summertime that makes everything seem easier and more relaxing?

Why are we so much more relaxed?
Why is it easier for us to just kick back even for just a short bit?

Why does reading seem more tempting in the summertime?
Why is reading on the beach or porch or under a large shady tree seem so magical?

What is it about that late afternoon siesta?
Why is it that we can relax and breathe easier?
Why do our worries, temporarily, seem less?

What is it about watermelon in the summertime?
Why do iced tea and lemonade taste so much better in the summertime?
Why do they go so well with a hammock and a book?

What is it about the songs of summer?
Why do they make us feel lighthearted and giddy?
Why do they evoke such happy memories?
Last summer I made this list of my favorite summer songs from my youth, click here for the link.

Here's to a relaxing summer Sunday to you all!
May you collect shells or find some sea glass,

or build sandcastles

or go for a swim, dip or dive...

May you enjoy the sand and the grass in between your toes...
May you find some time to curl up with a great book

and enjoy a nice iced tea... or lemonade!

XOXO,

Jessica
