“What’s your favorite season?”  For whatever reason, I have never really liked that question.  I think it’s because I always felt conflicted among Spring, Summer and Fall (Winter would never make my list).

I felt like I should say Spring, because it was the long anticipated break from Winter (I lived in fairly cold and snowy climes from age 5 to 21).  I felt like I should say Summer because of baseball and fishing.

In my heart, I really knew Fall was my favorite.  That acceptance and realization that I could actually say it came the Fall after I turned 19.  I was in Indiana and the leaves were had turned and were starting to really cover the ground.  I happened to hear the song “California Dreamin’” and it seemed totally appropriate.

So, I’m really enjoying my favorite season.

This is my 3 year-old son.  This picture signifies a number of things: the swimming season has started; my son is a little worker; and I must be getting older, because I was so happy he wanted to try to clean the pool himself.

Let summer begin!
