summertime....

summer days...lie ahead of us here...and this is the time, you loved the best, such happy and fulfilling memories of you and all of your friends, enjoying the bliss that previous summers offered...the floats down the river...the endless get-togethers...the foods of summer...the concerts...and baseball, oh you and your Yankees...you thoroughly would partake of all that summer offered you...summertime...the best time of the year...the reconnecting of those who were away at college all year, now would resurface back into town...your gift to many was the blending you did so well...to get people together...to create the good times...to navigate the tour of summer fun...this summer will be different, not only for me, but to those whose lives your loss has affected...I hope when your friends ride down the Lehigh, they take memories of you with them each time...I hold hope that with each Frisbee thrown, little memories of you are held inside their thoughts...as a mom, I simply want YOU remembered...you'd been such a special gift to so many...and this summer cannot be the summer is was...without you here with us...perhaps it's summer time each day in Heaven...I love you...forever
