I’m determined to make this summer feel different that the “school” year did. We all know this year is going to be so weird and one that we will for sure remember, but I want my kids to look back on it with good memories. I want them to remember the connection, family time, simple moments and laughter. I have a very low bar when it comes to summer planning this year, but I do know that because of that it’s going to make me more present and available and that’s just what my kids and I need.
