Somehow, it’s August already.
You can feel it in the breeze—just a whisper of fall starting to creep in. But before the school bells ring and the backpacks come out of storage, there’s still time for what summer is really about: family, fun, and those little moments we’ll talk about for years.
August is the last big exhale before the busyness of fall. It’s the season of:
🌴 Family vacations where everyone squishes into a rental car, sings too loud to road trip playlists, and bonds over ice cream and sunburns.
🏖️ Beach days with sandy toes, sunblock battles, and the best kind of tired at the end of the day.
🏊♀️ Pool parties where the kids’ laughter echoes across the water and the grown-ups finally get a minute to sit back and breathe.
🎣 Fishing trips, backyard BBQs, impromptu picnics, campfires, marshmallows, and stargazing.
Because let’s face it—summer’s not just about escaping routine. It’s about reconnecting.
Our lives are busy. But these moments? They’re the ones that matter.
And if you’re anything like us, you’re trying to squeeze every last drop out of August. Whether it’s one more beach day or one more round of cards with Grandma, there’s still time to make memories.
It’s also a great time to reflect on them. 💭
Our Mom and Dad Life Story Journals were made for moments like these—when the stories are fresh, the laughter is easy, and the family is close. Use them to ask about your parents’ favorite summer memories, what vacations were like when they were kids, or the things they loved most about back-to-school season.
Because someday, your kids might be asking you the same questions.
August won’t last forever. But the stories can.
Wishing you one last cannonball, one last marshmallow, and one more reason to laugh before the school shoes hit the floor again.
📘 Grab your journal, ask the questions, and capture the stories while the sun is still shining.
