I am a girl still holding on tightly to the wonderful meaning that was our trip while breathing in this wonderful hot summer air and hoping, always hoping that the next turn in life is good and beautiful. xo

in this moment, i am bold, at peace and tingling with excitement and anticipation. i am jumping, leaping...the net is there. i am taking the first steps...i am feeling.

you ARE a sunset streaked wave

a love

sometime's polkadot love
sometime's rainbow
sometime's soaked in lemondade
with a sprig of mint

but
always love:)

I am tired and wobbly like a new fawn, and yet I am more than I have ever known myself to be. I am.

(Love your self-portrait! and yes, you are always brave.)

I am climbing inside of your banner to eat cherries and take a nap with a smile on my face...

and pause...
i am waiting
and breath withheld...
i am quiet.
