That’s a snippet from the Phineas and Ferb theme song. We love Phineas and Ferb around here! And we also love summer vacation!

As each of our children have done at some point, our 16yo daughter has recently shifted into high gear when it comes to friends. She has always been social; she has reached a developmental step where she is paying more attention to her friends than her family. And this is perfectly ok. It’s just a difference from a few months ago.

So, Kepler and I will be spending a great deal of time together this summer, one on one. We started today with the great library adventure of 2015. There are 41 branches of our public library system and we are going to visit all of them this summer.

His delight at a new branch was  palpable. He couldn’t quite take in all these new books and new DVDs to choose from. It was great fun. With my new movie making skills, I’m compiling photos and video to make an epic film of our adventure later on this summer.

Great start to the summer!
