walking to the candylady's house
kicking my shoes (jelly sandals) up into the sky as high as possible until 1 shoe landed on the roof
As a child, I remember never wanting summertime to end...
...but I'm over that now. The heat has long since cured me of that longing lol!
These days I'm more into embracing the season that I'm in...
What do you love and remember most about summertime?
