It's Summertime! Being a "yes" Mom!

Well!  We finally made it - summer is officially here :o)  We're at the trailer (we love it here!) and are totally chillaxin' as grampa would say.  Even the dog is chillaxin' too.

We had a campfire the first night we were up and the stars in the sky were absolutely beautiful.  It is so peaceful up here - even when it's busy.  Then on Sunday night the park slowly empties and it gets quiet.  And that is amazing too.

My ambition this summer?  Have fun fun fun!  And more fun!  I decided a few years back (well, I think it was last year really) to be more of a "yes" mommy.  As opposed to a "no" mommy.  And you know what?  It was a great summer.  The kids were happy and so was I.  My husband is totally a yes kind of guy - sometimes to the point of being annoying - you know the type.  Everyone loves him and everything comes so easily and naturally to him.  Hmmph.

I have some time to myself right now - usually my daughter has her friend hanging around for most of the day but they are out tubing with the yes man (aka daddy).  And our son is on the boat too.  These quiet moments are sometimes hard to find.  This is an ahh-haa moment :o)

I'm looking forward to bingo night - it's kids bingo actually - and it's a hoot!  This summer promises lots of action packed days and campfire nights.

Keep smiling!
