Summer Love





Right now we are on our summer assignment in Bar Harbor, Maine. One of my favorite things about our summer assignments is the opportunity to spend extended amounts of time with wonderful friends that live all over the country. And now that many of us have kids our children also get to enjoy spending lots of time together. You might remember that we spent last summer living across the hall from our good friends the Kidds. Lily and their daughter Libby became such good friends last summer and it was so fun for me to watch. This summer there are a few children around Lily's age, but I think that she has developed a little bit of a crush on our friend's son Jack. She just loves being around him. Today on our first day off we decided to hit the beach and when Jack and his parents happened to be there too Lily was thrilled! The two of them had a great time playing together in the sand and water and even chasing ducks (and each other). So I know that as a parent you can't control these things, but on the off chance that in the future my Lily's little summer love turns into something more...well then I'll have the pictures to show where it all started!:) In the meantime I'm thrilled once again to watch Lily really enjoy these little summer friendships.

Jack's parents would be totally thrilled if the romance continued =] And we are firm believers in older women marrying younger men =] The pictures are SUPER cute!!
