"little miss sunshine" glasses found at st. vinny's
after a great day of teaching
reconnecting with your family is icing on the cake
namaste
you know how I love my jumping photos
so when mattresses are left on a street corner
well can you even imagine the fun
?
when you see a giant rocking horse
you rock
her hair and shoes
I totally covet
oh...and her eyes, too
walking around the pond eating gelato
signing the cottage guest book
posing for me because I asked
~
smiling and laughing because that's what she does best
waiting for our lunch at lazy jane's
I know there should be a part two to my part one
but right now you'll have to forgive me for being out of words
~~
I think all the smiling and laughing I did these past few days
did something to my ability to think straight
or
even see straight for that matter
~~
I know
most of you are laughing right now at the thought of me
"chatty cathy"
being out of words
but it's true
~~
I can only hope you know how much these past few days have meant to me

ReplyDeleteHi BETH, BEAUTIFUL, just sneaking a moment at my sisters to say hi and tell you I am thinking about you.
