this is summer...

...where I respond to names like "Boudreau" and "Banan." This is summer, where I spend my nights playing the piano while my family tries to sing along. This is summer, where at any time I have at least 3 Wikipedia tabs open on my computer, along with at least one Google Doc on something new I am trying to learn. This is summer, where I can't tell you that I've wasted any time, but when asked what I did with my day, I really don't have an answer. This is summer, where I memorize things like airport codes and flower names. Where I drive barefoot. Where my hair sometimes resembles a lion's mane. Where I watch Disney movies with my brothers. Where I cook chicken and rice and steak and potatoes and make snow cones and brownies and ice cream and cake. This is summer.
