{14} our outside lights, finally fixed. brighter than before, illuminating each fabulous tree.

{15} a new meditation mantra: in God, i move and breathe and have my being.

{i love that.}

{16} my breath suspended watching her dream come true.

{17} the incredibly delightful gift of crisp pink + white striped jammies.

{18} spring break.

 

{19} the thrill of her first roller coaster ride. with a 150-foot drop.

 

{20} and for my brother who rode with her

{21} over and over and over…

{22} cardinals. and seeing them wherever i go. perhaps they follow me?

{23} normal test results. healthy thyroid, happy me.

{24} the subtle transformation of a little nook.

 

{25} polaroid happiness. like little bubbles from an ordinary day.
