Summertime

Dear Reade (or Read given your last post),

It's a beautiful summer evening. The temperature is cooling and I'm thinking about the day we have just been through. Sleeping late (hooray!). Blueberry pancakes (yummy). Church (good to be back). Lunch. Naps and craziness with the kids while you did homework. Playing in the water. Planting flowers. Snack-y supper. Family movie night. The eternal bedtime of overtired children.

Overall, we've had a weekend of balance. I feel good about the work we've accomplished, the ways that we have lived in thankfulness and the rest which we have taken. Thanks for the many ways that you have worked hard on family stuff and given yourself to your school work too.

Love to you,
Jennifer (of Jnnifer if you prefer)
