Life has been moving so fast the last few months that as we enter summer, I want to savor each day to the fullest. I want to enjoy all the sunlight of the day, play hard with the kids, listen to their stories, splash in the pool, be together as a family and soak up this time together.
This is our last summer before Collin officially starts school. As we move closer and closer to that time, I'm more and more grateful for the opportunity to homeschool him {and Emma} {and that's a whole other post}. But, it's also a bit bittersweet. I mean, how did we get to the school years so quickly?!
This summer feels like the perfect time to breathe. Breathe deeply of the summer air, the laid back schedule, the good {and the not so good} together...savor the moments.
Our church service on Sunday confirmed my desire to savor the moments this summer {and beyond} with not just my family, but with my Savior, too. To sit a little longer in His presence and just be with Him.
I'll be honest, I'm not entirely sure what this is going to look like in my life this month. But this is what's on my heart.
What are your thoughts? How do you savor the days? How do you slow down and soak up the beauty in each day?

Summer passes wayyyy too quickly. Savoring the moment is a GREAT monthly focus for June! I need to remember this also considering I spend so much time thinking about what's ahead, rather than the moment I'm in. Thanks for joining in, friend!
ReplyDeleteSummer is the best time to Savor moments. Any time is really, but summer just makes it more enjoyable :)
ReplyDeleteSavor is the perfect focus for summer! It always seems to go way too quickly and we need to hoard all those warm weather memories to get us through another long winter!
ReplyDeletePerfect focus for this month, I am so looking forward to summer and I would really like to slow down and enjoy it with our friends and family :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great focus! I'm looking forward to my life slowing down a bit this month so that I too can savor my time with family and friends, including you :)
ReplyDeleteAll so true! Perfect focus for June. I feel like I can't wait for summer and then I blink and it's gone. I'm gong to try and savor everything this month (and this summer) too :)
ReplyDeletesummer always go by so quickly and i have the best laid plans for an awesome summer and before i know it labor day is here and the summer was lost. thank you for sharing this today and helping me to refocus!
ReplyDeletesavoring the moments is something people forget to do so often -- so greta you're focusing on this!
ReplyDeleteI just love this! We have had a rough few days around here and I really need to remember this!
ReplyDeleteSavor is a great focus point as we roll into summer and many of us will have extra time with our loved ones as they are out of school, vacations happen, etc.... I think it's hard for us to just slow down and savor the day. I don't do it on a daily basis and I know that needs to change. For now, when life gets to chaotic, I take a lazy day to myself. Those are the best!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great focus! I definitely need to remember to savor the moments in life more often
ReplyDeleteI love this! Savor sounds like the perfect word for June & summer in general :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like your family's summer is off to a great start! Love that you are wanting to savor it all! You truly do inspire me. You remind me of the kind of mom that I want to strive to be! I hope your summer is an amazing one that you will remember always!
