The first balmy days of this year’s Spring have happened, triggering the now-to-summer time warp like they always, inexplicably, do.
Things that made me cry in the past 24 hrs:
First perfect peonies bloomed in our garden; Kids greeted with bear hugs just for coming off bus #53; Father taught new-driver-daughter how to pump gas (she nailed it!); Blue sky overtook the grey at the exact moment middle school let out for the weekend; Fourth grade boy talked to me earnestly about nothing in particular.
So now, I brace myself against the familiar acceleration toward June, smile through the tears that come, and gratefully receive the reminder that the meaning of life is so plainly spelled out for me in these tiny, brilliant moments.
