5/7 May-be

Dear Mom,
I hope you are having a good time on your cruise to Alaska.  Thank you so much for the use of your home for my “crafty ladies retreat” day.  The weather was incredible and so we were able to be out on your deck making a mess!

Sarah painted some gingko leaves with glue for a batik and Sandy, Deanna and I got busy making Sharpie tie-dye scarves with the silk I ordered.  It was a blast and so easy!

We’ll have to schedule a day like that when you are home because I know you would love to join right in.

See you soon, Amelia

5/6 May-be

we..
sitting on the sofa,
backs on opposite arms,
feet in the middle,
wine glasses on the table

we..
talking face to face
gesturing in the air
hugging our knees
laughing
crying
sighing

we…
digging deep
exploring  vulnerability,
courage,
wonder,
asking,
what’s it all about, Alfie?

we…
grieving loss of time
the energy of prime bodies and minds
at the same time
celebrating grounding experiences
and wisdom

we…
are powerful women
thoughtful travelers
caring friends
truly thankful
for precious time
together

so we..
can go back into our separate worlds
and be the other half of a “we”
with someone else we love
