more poetry on Wednesday

We are thinking a lot these days about learning and growth and change. Our poetry selection this week by Emanuel di Pasquale. (check out more at Kris')


The Sun Has a Tail

The sun has a tail
that reaches under the earth
and tickles seeds.
That's what grandmother
once told me.
She says things grow
in laughter.

Today the girls told a friend at co-op that their mom is "mad a lot lately". I have been. A lot weighing on my mind, so that last line of the poem was perfect for today. Sweet and to the point.

How's packing?

Glad you got the package. I was a little nervous it would not arrive in time. Definitely save it - it was meant to make the trip easier. Elia has another letter to send, but I don't think it will make it. Do you have another address? Or they can start internet letters - crazy, my 7 yo emailing someone!

Will will be praying for your trip and your transition. I know when we were little my parents made everything into an adventure. I had lots of fun as a kid. I'm sure it was hard for Mom and Dad, but we never knew better. I hope you can do the same for your kiddos. With Love from us to you.
