In South Carolina, we welcome the fall in shorts and flip flops. But the lack of chill in the air doesn't stop us from raking up piles of leaves, rolling down hills, and breathing in some crisp balmy 78 degree fall air. Earlier this week we had a "blustery" day and it got us all in the mood. I love the fall and all of my children apparently inherited the same gene.
Tonight, we sandwiched a warm dinner of carrot soup (fallish, right?) in between hours out of doors. I loved being outside with the kids... There's just something about cool(er) evening air and what it does to the psyche. Watching them roll down our hill (er, bump) in the back yard flooded me with so many memories of being their age. It is such a joy for me to give them the gift my parents gave me - wonderful times together just being a family.
