The First Day of Summer (Yesterday)

It's definitely summer around here. Last night, our daughter asked, "Mom, are you sure our clocks aren't wrong?" It was bedtime and still light outside....something very difficult for a child to understand. I laughed, and remembered that it was indeed the longest day of the year.

"In winter I get up at night and dress by yellow candle-light. In summer quite the other way, I have to go to bed by day."
~Robert Louis Stevenson
