...just as hard. So how do we celebrate July 1, the new New Year? Is this the summer I learn to skate? Longer days lend themselves to long talks and long walks and cooking dinner instead of just defrosting it. There's a tag sale on every corner, a harvest of spring cleaning, as we clear out the attic so we can start over with a whole new generation of exercise machines we won't use. My husband and I will pick a great book to read aloud to our girls, not because they need it anymore but just because...
