Love the heat!

Is it bad if I admit that I look at the date and get scared of winter coming in a few short months? I hate winter with little kids. Summer is so much easier! I dont have to put on coats, shoes, socks, or hats. Instead we wear as little as possible to stay cool! Scott hates the heat and I must admit I used to as well, but now that I have little kids (and a pool next door) I love the heat! I love that the playroom is barely messy because the kids spend most of their day outside. I love going swimming most days at the neighbor's pool. I love that it doesnt get dark until 10pm. I love that bath time is so much shorter than in the winter because there are so many better things to do than play in the bathtub. I love watching Caleb crawl as fast as he can anytime he hears a door open so he can explore the outdoors. I love finishing dinner and the girls being able to play out back on their awesome swing set while Scott and I finish eating and talking without kids around about our day. I love watching Bekah do crazy acrobatic things on the swingset, baby slide thing, and really anything her arms or feet can dangle from. Oh yes, lets no forget I love the ice cream from Mrs Curl, going to the park, teaching Bekah how to ride a bike, watching Ryan imitate everything that Cailou did that day on tv, watching Caleb eat bugs, rocks, leaves, and grass, playing red, grean, yellow, purple, orange, and pink light with the girls (I can give you the rules to the Moon's version of red light green light when you are dying to try it out), I love seeing my handsome husband come home from a hot day with his Sexy tan, and finally all the squeels and laughter from all three beautiful little ones God has so blessed me with! So for those reasons yes I am so sad when each days passes and winter is a little bit closer to ruining my fun!

PS. I even wrote this while taking care of a 9 1/2 month old with 103 fever from either hand, foot, and mouth disease or Roseola. Let's just say that he is miserable and I was in the weaning process which has definitely been halted since he was becoming dehydrated. So I guess this means even through the tiring times I still have so much to enjoy!
