:: Thankful for grandmas who show little girls how to sew skirts all by themselves and make them feel super proud ::
:: Very touched that Mathilde is learning to crochet with her great grandma ::
:: Still moved by the powerful words of Eckart Tolle (A New Earth), read by a friend before a meditation session together ::
:: Getting ready for Hélène and my dad's wedding in August (the girls are counting the days!) ::
:: Delighted that my daughters could read the storybooks I created as a child and that my dad carefully collected in an old suitcase ::
Right now, I am very appreciative of the words of love I received after my last post from people close and far.
Right now, I am thinking of Nini and her boys that are in Costa Rica, 5 minutes from where we lived last year (a total fluke, they had no idea!). I imagine them on Playa Ventanas, at our favorite waterfall and at the Feria de Uvita. I also think about the emptiness she is feeling from the husband she is grieving and it makes my heart ache.
Right now, I am so incredibly grateful to share my life with such a wonderful and loving man.

Right now, the rain is falling on our tin roof.
It's one o'clock, but I feel like writing.
