This has been our first truly slow summer. Yes they have their one or two summer. Amos for church, and we did a one week vacation. This summer I decided no reading lists, no weekly plans, no must haves, just every day sleep in (or wake up early), plays, explore, swim and just enjoy our summer. No homeschooling, no summer school, no weekly play dates, just enjoying our slow down.
So far our kids have been calmer, happier, and overall less stressed. Sometimes we need to remember to just slow down and let them be kids. Let them get bored. Most of all, let them be loved.
So here is so slower summer, more popsicles, more swimming, and more family time.
I pray that our kids remember these sweet lazy days as fond memories.
Later I’ll post more of our vacation adventures!
