Let me list why I love summer:
sleeping in
exercising when I feel like it
hiking
sleeping in
coffee
reading leisurely
doing tasks I can not usually get to
making time for friends
playing Amish horseshoes in the front yard
laying by pools
having good conversations with friends
sleeping in
having a choice about what my day is going to look like
being alone
trying new things
sleeping in
ooh ohh staying up late
which leads to sleeping in
camping
farmers markets
In summation: I love summer, and therefore love being a teacher because it provides me with a summer.
