A solstice is something to smile about!

It's the summer solstice! I don't quite know why I'm so excited about this but I am! I like the fact that it's the day with the most light in it, it just makes things seem more cheerful to me. Plus according to the World Health Organization (as of 2007) approximately 1 billion people don't get enough vitamin D. If you do get enough it can help prevent heart disease, type 2 diabetes and colon, breast and prostate cancers. So if you haven't already, I hope you can go out and enjoy some extra sun!
