Sunday in the Park

Donned coats and rain boots.
Went for a stroll in the arboretum.
Wondered at buds, blossoms, and tiny flowers on the ground.
Switched gears and ran laughing home for movies and popcorn.

I am so in love with Forsythia this year. Everything is grey and brown but the blasting yellow is gorgeous with promise of the next thing.

Sitting on a sofa seeing across the house. Gifts given, dog playing, people laughing and a tea party. A couple of us stop to admire paint on the walls.

A great guy from a great family of old friends. Gone too soon. Brought boundless joy to this place.

Snowy Dawn

Three year old peeks out the window at the blue-white world. She asks to make a snowman. Quietly we go downstairs and put her snow pants on right over the nightgown. Our front yard friend is built and accessorized before anyone else wakes up.
