Summer time

Sunflower

Four Red Kites sitting in the tree,

Eight nice sunflowers growing in the garden,

One yellow sun shining in the sky,

It’s summer time now,

Let’s play!

    Emily…you have a way with words! You’ve captured so many of the things we like the best about Summer….being outdoors, taking in Nature’s beauty and just generally having fun!
