I am happy to announce that the warm and sometimes hot summer continues even in Belgium. So here are

13 quotes about summer

1. A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken.

2. I know that if odour were visible, as colour is, I'd see the buses inside in rainbow clouds.

3. Summer is the season when the air pollution is much warmer.

4. Summer is the season when a man thinks he can cook better on an outdoor grill than his wife can on an indoor stove.

5. Being a child at home alone in the summer is a high-risk occupation. If you call your mother at work thirteen times an hour, she can hurt you.

6. Do what we can; summer will have its flies.

7. Tears are the summer showers to the soul.

  4. I laughed at the "It's a sure sign of summer when the chair gets up when you do" my toddler was stuck to his chair today when he stood up. Poor little guy didn't know what to make of it for a few minutes. He just walked around looking behind him, then he saw me laughing and started laughing as well. So cute!

    happy Thursday!
