Summer vacation has begun! The kid’s last day of school was yesterday. My son graduated the 5th grade. I sat in the hard plastic bleachers and watched him (and 117 others) walk across the stage and shake the principal’s hand. The 3 of us grabbed lunch afterwards, as they had a half day. We did an early dinner (4:00 pm) with my parents, as my Mom likes to “beat the rush”. Then we went bathing suit shopping for my 12 year old daughter. If you’ve never done that before, pack your patience. My son was antsy after the 2nd store (took us 5 stores before she found one she liked). We have a pool party in our neighborhood this afternoon. I’m living the dream. It ain’t the fancy launches or the Stripe screenshots, it’s the messy lunch, sitting in the bleachers at 9:45 am on a Friday, the dressing room chaos, and my Dad cracking the typical Dad jokes at Yardhouse. I find the stuff that doesn’t make the highlight reel, is ironically, the highlight reel. Go be present this weekend with your family. Whatever that looks like for you. YOU GOT THIS 🙌 In your corner, |
