Can it be

Summer streams by too quickly in Illinois.
Perhaps it is the lack of a State Fair tradition ( oh they have one alright but it is not THE State Fair.)
Perhaps it is the constant coming and going all summer and the lack of any real down time'
Perhaps it is the acceleration of time that comes with aging.
Perhaps it is that summer is just too short.

Nonetheless, summer is over and Mackey is Back in School.
Back to her incredibly busy , very demanding schedule.
She is growing up too quickly
