Good Afternoon!
Hearing:
- birds singing
- dogs panting,
- wind blowing,
- the heavy breathing of a sleeping baby,
- the laughter of children
- and soft murmurs of the people celebrating in the house.
Seeing:
Smelling:
- the clean smell of the approaching summer
- the lingering scent of hamburgers carried with the wind.
Feeling:
- soft baby skin,
- sticky heat of approaching summer accompanied by the cool breeze that lifts my hair and cools my skin,
- puppy fur on my bare feet
- and sloppy dog kisses on my arm as they come to discover what this thing called "baby" is
Tasting:
- sweet Lullabys
- baby heads as I kiss them gently.
- The lemonade crime icing made from scratch
- sweet fruit
Today we celebrated my Great-Grandmother's 89th Birthday. It was a beautiful way to spend this memorial day weekend.,the day was pretty and the weather beautiful. Family time with the gang was a nice treat, the crazy cousins and sweet babies. I am so thankful for another year with my sweet Mimi and I pray for more to come.
Grand children, great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren. |
