Hello, August! We’ve walked away from July and into your arms on a high and we’re having way too much fun already.
We’re ready to continue going on ice cream dates and long strolls through the parks. We’re ready for evening walks, checking in on our ever growing brood of cygnets.
We’re ready for PB&J sandwiches and salty potato chips for lunch while we watch an old episode of “Bewitched” or “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”. We’re ready for afternoon movie dates with popcorn. We’re ready for lazy afternoons on the balcony perfecting our chess game or playing cards while records spin from inside.
We’re ready for cold iced tea and crackers smeared with pimento cheese as a late afternoon snack while we slowly start work on dinner. We’re ready for date nights with Mr. Michie’s glorious cheeseburgers, with thick slices of heirloom tomatoes and fresh corn on the cob oozing with butter.
You’ve already started our month with sunshine and a cool breeze, you know our heart’s desires and all that we are ready for you to bring us this month before school starts again in the fall.
Hello, August! Our cup runneth over!
