980 | Better This Week: Your Summer

0:01I absolutely love summertime.

0:04It is my favorite time of the year.

0:07We look forward to it all school year long.

0:10But real talk, that is something that I experience now that my kids are older.

0:17I remember when they were little that I would see all of these things on Pinterest or Facebook back in the day of like having the best summer ever.

0:26And I remember my sister-in-law was always talking about how much she loved when the kids were out of school and how much she loved being at home.

0:34And I remember thinking like, is something wrong with me?

0:37Because this is hard to go from having your little kids who go to school during certain hours or even preschool for half the day to suddenly not having them in a school structure was really hard for me.

0:52And I want to start today's episode by saying that if you are in a season that makes summer difficult, it is really helpful to just acknowledge that.
