Every year, when the final bell rings on the last day of school, summer seems so full of promise. The possibilities are endless! You might go on vacation, meet a new friend or two, read a great book … who knows? But it always seems that when fall rolls around, you look back at your three months off and wonder, “What did I do?”

Maybe you slept in, lay by the pool or chatted on the computer, all of which is great – there is always room for some down time on summer vacation. But think about what you did to make the summer stand out. Does anything come to mind?

This year take a moment to think about what you can do this summer that will really make a difference. Then add a comment to tell us about it. Volunteer to walk the neighborhood dogs, start your own babysitting business, volunteer your time to a community project … it’s summer – the possibilities are endless!

Until next time,
Miss Maxi
