Summer...day 22...ice cream, movies and memories--this is what summer is made of..

I watched joy fill my son's eyes when his Daddy told him that they were going to see the Superman movie.  An unexpected blessing and a thrill for my son. Boy time..............Dad, son, and a friend time.  A time that my son will most likely remember forever.  As joy filled his face and excitement filled the air, my heart skipped a beat. These are the things childhood is made of.





Then I took the girls for what girls do best...........a sweet treat.  A 50 cent ice cream cone from Burger King, in all its creamy goodness. Girls eyes lit up like Christmas trees and them saying........okay Mommy........let's talk.  So we did, we talked about ice cream and summer and giggled and laughed and had a blast.  It doesn't take a lot to make them smile, to see the magic of childhood glowing in their eyes. My kids are going to remember these things...........the fun times............the silly times.................the good old, let's just have a good time ..........times.  This is what summer is made of. Little girl giggles, sticky hands slipped into mine, ice cream covered smiles............yes......this is what summer is made of and my heart is full and glowing and I am so thankful to God above, for great is His faithfulness.
