A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)  

Wednesday Wisdom-Cherish every moment

Hanging out at Myrtle Beach


“Cherish every moment with those you love at every stage of your journey.” ― Jack Layton 
A friend sent me a link to day to send me a video message on my phone. Because I have like 7,000 photos saved, not including the videos and applications that I have on it, I was unable to install this new app and was unable to see or hear her video message. Well, I want to be a good friend and want the message. So, I have been looking through my phone to identify things that I can delete and/or transfer. During my project, I found this photo from our trip to Myrtle Beach last month.

Since it was overcast skies, cold and rainy in Pittsburgh, seeing this photo of a sunny day at the beach was a nice treat!

It made me smile and helped me get over the hump called Wednesday. I remembered the sweet vacation memories. I remembered running along the beach, jumping the waves, breakfast by the ocean and sandcastles... I remembered ice cream for dinner, seafood for lunch, and abundant fresh fruit. I remembered not having to make my own bed for nearly a week. I remembered paradise! The smile you see above captures all of that. I decided to share it with you in case you also needed something to boost your spirits.

Happy Wednesday!!!
