I'm Going To Miss Summertime. . .

Sometimes I'll tell Elise that I want to live in the Philippines. It's not because I don't like the people here or that I want to live far away from family. It is because it would be hot and humid all year long and we would live close to what I think are the most beautiful beaches in the world.

I love kids. I love them because I can stick two baby pools in our front yard (our backyard is still dirt and weeds) and they're as happy as can be. If only I could regain that innocent joy for even one day then I'd be happy.
