What Joy Looks Like




Sitting next to an open window.  The breeze in the trees is delightfully noisy.  David is on the other side of the window painting and doing fist pumps because he just "finally got something right."  Roast in the oven tricking my nose that it is the holidays.  Magnolia is playing make believe with her bunny in front of me on the floor.  Actual make believe.  Such a soft, quite, creative spirit.  Bon Iver just came on pandora - Holocene, my favorite.  I could cry I'm so happy.  In fact, I think I will...
