Emma and I went up to stay at Mom and Dad's for a few days, like we usually do once school's out for both of us. The four of us went up to Lakeside, a town on Lake Erie, to spend a day digging in the sand, strolling through the shops, and (unexpectedly) watching a gorgeous sunset along a beautifully landscaped lakeside path. Along the way we also stopped at an art studio where childrens' book illustrator Jodie McCallum produces her work and Emma created a picture for HER!
The next day we stayed closer to Mom and Dad's place, relaxing on the front porch, browsing in the library, and strolling around at Malabar Farm.
While we see Mom and Dad a couple times a month, this tradition of paying them a few days' visit in June gives us all a chance to enjoy one another's company in that laid-back kind of way you can only find this time of the year.
