.... a child simply receives the promise of adventure
they live with an open heart, a sense of wonder,
& experience the joy of a day full of anticipation.
Open your hearts up with expectation again.
best things....
mom's call to sing Happy Birthday first thing this morning
chatting with my Dad
seeing him next week
a phone call from brother
opening the gift he sent while connected
an inside joke &
a very warped best memory as kids...
laughing so hard my abs are toned
my stepdad finds my birthday written on a slip of paper
while he's cleaning his desk
realizes it's today
calls to sing Happy Birthday
first time he's sang to me
a hilarious operatic happy birthday sung by an old friend
left in my voicemail
a perfect fall day...apple orchards and pumpkin patches
apple cider that made my mouth so happy
the rest of me followed
an orange bird trinket
the orchard girls named nugget
nugget's now in my living room
exploring someplace new
my kiddo on speaker phone
talking wedding plans
sending him pictures
of the clouds
horses, goats, pigs, cows, sheep....
children playing, laughing & exploring in awe
dinner at an old favorite...
Mexican restaurant
pregnant with my kiddo last time I ate there
nostalgia
an old jute box on the wall
digging a quarter out of my purse
so hubby could play a song
he picks
"Crazy by Patsy Cline"
fall ice-cream flavors
a double scoop
one eggnog one pumpkin
on a waffle cone
eggnog on top
a beautiful sunset on the way home....
dark orange, purple, and blue
feeling loved
a perfect day
be well...
xoxo

"Relax wild one. It's not your job to be everything
everyone needs, and you don't have to be impressive
to be loved. Stop trying so hard.
Just show up and be real with the world.
That is enough."
"It is said that nothing lasts forever, but there
are moments in our lives when we think something will,
and it is the memory of those moments that lasts forever."
"Finally I realized I was never asking too much.
I was just asking the wrong person."
