summer nights

These long, lingering days of summer feel so luxurious after a long winter here. Being able to really take advantage of the whole day, making room for work and play and a little more play and just one more romp in the moonlight mama please?

Naia announces sunset each night, "The sky is turning pink and red and owange!! So beautiful!" And she is starting to figure out the cycle of the sun reminding me that the sun is going bye bye to grandma and grandpa's house in Hawaii but it will come back in the morning.

Staying at the marina pool until closing time, evening cart rides around the marina, chasing and catching fireflies, and of course very late bedtimes too. It's all part of the blissful abundance of summer.
