when you were younger did you ever think aboutwhat it would be like when you were older?
not what you would do
but what it would be like
how it would feel
how you would feel
about a month ago
perfectly warmish coolish day outside
brian
in the garage/woodshop making a bookshelf
me
in the kitchen starting dinner
front door
sliding glass door
garage door
every door
open
& the kids
running
in & out
around & through
sunflowers from the farmers market
on the counter
&
there it was
that feeling
just right
exactly where we were supposed to be
exactly right
:)

:) your blog made me smile
My eight-year-old just expressed this very sentiment yesterday.
"I wonder what it feels like to be grown up..."
We talked about it for a little while, and she was wondering exactly what you're talking about. It wasn't "what will I do?" or "who will I be with?" but "what's it like... this thing called life?"
Awesome post, Em. I think I'll show it to her :)

I smiled too...when I see sunflowers I always think of 1993...our room, you, Lesley and Sunny...happy!
Thanks!
That is so lovely...the flowers, the writing! Love it! Janna
