Ten things that made me smile this summer

Another summer has flown by and school begins next week. We have a busy few days ahead of us with sneaker shopping, haircuts, organizing supplies and cleaning out dressers, but I did want to stop and reflect on a few things that made me smile this summer.
#1 - "Mom, can you believe I'm the only Jewish kid in the entire CCD class?" I hope the second grade teacher is prepared for this little girl!
#2 - Watching Jason's face light up when I suggested he take his motorcycle out to do some errands for me.

#3 - Watching my kids enjoy the lake where I spent my childhood summers.
#4 - Boogie boarding the perfect wave with the help of Jason's cousin, Luke.
#5 - Spending four days with my two nieces, Gina and Maddie, and seeing so much of my brother and sister in them!

#6 - Spending a grown-up evening out with Jason and my family for a wedding in Boston.
#7 - Watching the sun rise at the beach with Jason and the kids and then going out for breakfast.
#8 - Running the first PTO Board Meeting of the year and actually knowing what I was doing this time.
#9 - Spending time with my friends and laughing until my cheeks hurt.
#10 - Blueberries
