Day 21 - Favorite Thing About Each Season

Day 21

Summer:  long days, lightning bugs, memories of King of the Mountain and playing out after dark, newly mowed lawn, cool house, light summah suppahs, no schedules, deep shade, caramel cake, late afternoon rain showers, shower baths, fireworks, ice cold sweet watermelon

Autumn:  bright blue skies, sweaters, hot soup, college football, new schedules, cool air, leaf showers, golden trees that look lit from within, dry leaves crunching beneath my feet, memories of new school clothes and the fall edition of Seventeen Magazine and new school supplies, lowered windows in the car and raised windows in the house, Thanksgiving

Winter:  quiet, snowy evenings, city shut down due to snow, s'mores cooked on the fire pit, sleeping under my feather comforter, hot chocolate, Sunday afternoon nap on a dreary day, memories of sledding down our hill and bonfires in the road, Sanibel, sunlight streaming through my den window filling the room with rainbows, woolen scarf from Scotland, mittens, Christmas, pot roast, bread pudding,

Spring:  forsythia, end of school, daffodils, thunderstorms, warm breezes, light jackets, Easter, dogwoods, myriad shades of green, new birth, deviled eggs and potato salad, memories of fancy Easter dresses and egg hunts, and family dinners, long walks, homegrown strawberries, dappled light on the front lawn, open windows,
