home

I am missing my family so much today. They are in Florida and I am so far from home. If I were there right now, I would curl up on the couch with my head in my mom's lap while she worked on a sudoku, or we would be drinking coffee and playing duker, or eating dad's popcorn and listening to his laugh as we watch a movie together. The way that I feel when I am there is as if the whole house has its arms wrapped around me. It is comfort, it is laughter, it is tears, it is hope, it is connections, it is peaceful, it is chaos, it is home. And no matter where we go, a huge piece of my heart will always be there.

  1. Oh friend, take heart, you will see them soon. Trust me, the holidays are around the corner and if you don't believe it, come work with me and you'll feel like you are on a speeding train that is out of your control. Speeding toward Thanksgiving and Christmas. I am here if you need to chat.
