Blessed



Far away. Worth every hour spent getting here
Family. Important Family.
Family that never leaves your heart. Never leaves you
You go there with two of the kids Beauty and Bear-a great mix
Vegetarian tacos and lasagna and pita pockets with cucumber, tomato, feta and olives. Iced sparklibg tea with lemons, lots of chocolate covered almonds and kettle popcorn.
Long nature hikes with frogs and snakes and screams
Two decadent massages (yes two as were so good we had to go back!) Wet hot towels and arnica
Long walks with Pretzel
Bear and Auntie Sandy running
Two girls dancing dancing and dancing
Eyeshadows and lipsticks
Beautiful music coming from upstairs
Trading book titles and movie titles
Riddles at the table and naming all the USA states
Indian “breakfast” with my bro and good talks
Warm rain
Relish and antiques
Fudge and Candy and lots and lots of popcorn and salt water taffy
Signing of book and talking about all the writers in the family
Bonding. Cousins. Love
Roller-skating disco
Candles chosen over whiskey
Sweet smart kind good girls
UnderwearJ
Crickets, blood on carpets and blocked toilets in the middle of the night
Reading time, naps, tea and wasabi peas
Planning SpainJ))
Just  good old blessed. To have such a brother. And a sista and such sweet, smart and kind nieces.
Simmering in love
Baked in happiness
Like the layers of the delicious lasagna-the unfolding and layers of so much we all have. So much More.
Life is Good.

PS-so many great pics to add and not working! Come back and look later this week for this addition
