The earth yawned. And in it's first inhale, it took the heat with it, and exhaled cool air. Yes, it is a reminder that summer is going to be a memory soon. We will be digging out our fall sweaters, pants, boots- making soups, heavier foods to keep us warm.
Some of us will be decorating our homes for Halloweeen and Thanksgiving this fall. Others will be decorating their apartments. We will all be preparing for the colder months ahead.
I will be enjoying these crisper mornings, taking walks with my daughter, kicking up leaves, talking about when the first snow will fall and how many snow people we'll make. One morning soon we'll wake up, walk outside, and see our breath.
But until the earth takes its' yearly slumber, I'll be enjoying the days leading up to winter.
