A few years ago my husband and I were talking about where we wanted to watch Fourth of July fireworks. He mentioned that he had seen fireworks before and did not necessarily need to see anymore. He did not take into account that he had seen them during his childhood and yes we are in the south and it is summer and it is ridiculously hot but it is now our daughters childhood. It is her only childhood and it is our job to make sure she has the very best one possible. Which means we get to pack up and go sit out in the horrible heat and make it the best experience we possibly can because you are making their memories right now. So try not to get caught up so much with what is better for us all the time and try to remember to be there with them and share in their moment.
