Be the one who goes under because you know wet hair is a small price to pay for rapturous giggles.
Be the one who looks for snakes under rocks and flings your bathing-suit-clad self on the Slip ‘N Slide and hopes for survival because you are making memories.
Dear Mama: This Summer, Be the One
Be the one who knows some of the best afternoons are filled [with] scraps of paper, dabs of glue, sprinkled glitter, and a kind heart because those are the ones you will tuck away so as to remember.
