the summer of oh-ten

At some point during this summer I realized that I wasn't really giving this ol' blog of mine much attention. And then I rationalized that my life really wasn't that exciting. Each day started with sweet little nephews, and ended with sweet little nephews. Rinse. Repeat.

And it was heaven.

So I thought I'd do a wrap-up of the summer. But then I realized I didn't really do anything.

So I thought I'd list some life-lessons I learned this summer. And then I realized that there was really only one.

I love my family.

I am so incredibly blessed to have these amazing people in my life. A sister who is my best friend. Who is so incredibly generous to me. And these sweet little boys of hers. Ugh. How do I even describe how wonderful they are?

Everyone we meet tells my sister how lucky she is to have me -- how they all wish they had sisters who could take entire summers to help them.

But in the end, it's me that's the lucky one. Because I have this wonderful family.

It's the night before I go back to school, and I'm that little kid that doesn't want to get on the bus. Don't make me, please.
