Summer is almost here! Time to have adventures, make memories, and tell more stories!And I'm not just talkin' about the children. Sound like too much work? C'mon, folks, play! Blow bubbles in the backyard, take a walk around a local park or children's section of the library, watch a sunset and talk about it, mix ice cream flavors in a big bowl, play a game, read a book together, laugh as loudly as you can for absolutely no reason, make up a silly story,...create memories that will last beyond the summer and into a lifetime of joy.
