A Teacher Loves Summer

Soon to be peach preserves. Our neighbor gave them to us.










The little poem by Sandburg made me want warm, homemade biscuits immediately! Here they are!





I'm so happy in the summertime. I hate to admit it, but I always dread teaching in the fall. All the activities of the summer, even though it's my least favorite season, relax my soul and make me happy. Sleeping until 8:00. Staying up till 11:00. Spending hours tending plants or making delicious food. Reading for pleasure instead of a deadline. Enjoying my children. All these things are limited, or eliminated, during the school year.
