Scenes from the weekend

There was beauty
and the promise of a new season.

There was generational continuity

and creatures great


and small.

There were girls...

lots of funny, bright, inquisitive, beautiful girls.

celebrating a birthday.

There was good food
and cake... 'cause all princesses love cake!

There were male children, both stoic

and silly.
It was a comfort.

Back to the day shift... and our lives without either the obligations with my mother or the joy of Jack.

This brief break helped with the transition though - and I'm grateful.
