dear summer mama,
when do you think?
when do you plan?
when do you prepare?
when do you make time to wash your hair?
asking for a friend.

discovery in the church parking lot
a night to remember
(and never forget)
ten
beach bliss
up + out
startlingly beautiful
grateful to be here
happy to be inside the car
(because of my bird phobia)
wondering how we got here so quickly
a gift from God
we weren’t sure that this boy
would ever make it out of my womb alive.
and here we are, celebrating his 16th birthday!
he is the very best birthday gift
that i have ever received.
i just made our flights
to drop her off at college.
so now there is this
flood of sadness
that has settled
deep within my heart.
i am so excited for her and so sad for us.
because the dreams
are getting mixed with reality
and this next chapter
is right around the corner.
that is all.
