It’s summer vacation for us. We have finished up school for a little bit and I am looking forward to getting some much needed writing done. I am also hoping to make my way through my towering TBR (to-be-read) pile.

As an adult, my mind is often on the business at hand. Even as I write this, I am thinking about what I will be making for dinner, hoping that my husband’s day is going well, listening to joyful laughter from the fort and trying not to think about bills that need to be paid or the upcoming birthday of our deceased son.

But I can’t wait for my husband to get home…
