My Favorite Day of Summer

Every year,

on this day,

 I thank God

I get to

stay at home

and

take the boys

to water day.

This is what

every kid's summer

should include.

Eating outdoors.

Water.

Friends.

Lots of laughter.

Exercise.

A little relaxation.

Then, run them ragged.

Until their little bodies just can't take it anymore.

Only 364 days until the next water day!

 Congratulations, Rob!

 Goodnight, boys.
