X- eXtension cords. (I know, that's pushing it) We have an entire blue bin of them that we put away very tidily and wrapped perfectly. And the following year, they're in complete disarray again when it's time to take them out to put the Christmas lights up. I blame gremlins.
An appreciation for each of you who participate and share your joys, struggles, challenges and successes with the rest of us. You truly give us reason to be here and to stand tall. THANK YOU!!
E- Evening light. When the sun hits the horizon and everything is washed in a warm light- this was the time my child found it easiest to speak to me about the things they did that day and the things they were contemplating. I will always associate this time of day with connection and a feeling that my child and I were insulated from the world a little bit.
