Thirty Days Hath September

Dearest Darling Readers,
September is my favorite month of the year! October, November, and December are all tied for second, and VERY close to first...but September is and always will be my favorite month.

Why, you may ask (not that you care)?

Well, September is not only the month of my birth, but it is also the month of my brother's birth, my dad's birth, my close aunt's birth, and my parents' wedding anniversary. It is a jam-packed month! But with all of these family celebrations, my family is always closest in September, which is really nice, because we are not exactly the closest family.

Also. In my opinion, September has great weather. It's still warm from the summer, it's getting cooler. Now, I DO love when it's colder out, and November is probably my favorite weather month, but September is nice cause it comes in warm and comes out cool. And. Leaves begin to change colors. Enough said.

Apple picking. AKA one of my yearly opportunities to relive my childhood. Before moving to Sweden, I lived just down the road from a farm, and every fall, I go back to that farm and go apple picking and buy an apple-shaped cup of apple cider. It's one of my favorite traditions. Despite my constant changing, I am big on certain traditions. I love traditions.

School starting. Okay...technically that's August...but shh. And okay, maybe this isn't most people's favorite thing in the world, but my excitement for school to start extends beyond the first few days. I am a nerd. Deal with it.

There are a million reasons why I love September, more that I could list here, and some that I can't really explain in words.

Now come, September.
With your inhale and exhale,
metamorphosis.
