Here Comes The Sun
Oh the roads we have traveled. And oh, those we have yet to travel! They stretch out before me in my mind. They’re sometimes long and winding, but more often, lately, so straight and fast that I can see the endpoint like a sudden, bracing hug and it takes my breath away. That place on the horizon where the road blisses out is bursting with warm sun, calling me.
There is so much going on right now, a flurry of to dos and plans and please let this work outs, that I can’t even begin to tell you about it all. I want to tell you. Of course, I will. In just a little while. My thoughts are racing along so far and so fast, ahead of me on that straight-shot road, being drawn to the place where my heart lies in wait. When it all snaps together just right, I’ll calm down, take a deep breath, and let my fingers do the work of spilling the proverbial beans here.
For now, my feet are getting tangled under me as I dart this way and that in nervous anticipation and fervent getting readiness. It’s quite a dervish of a whirlwind that’s whipping me around currently.
Luckily, in the breaks between spinning and racing and running around with far too much to think about and much, too much, to do, Braden and I have private dance parties to the music of The Beatles in our living room. There is generally an abundance of giggling. (You can dance really stupidly when there’s no one but a 3 year old watching, and it doesn’t matter.) Often, there is falling down on the floor silliness to be had, as well. And sharing a moment or two of just being.
Life, contrary to what you may have heard, is good.

I love that song.
Sillyness is great. My toddler likes to dance to Twist and Shout. She’s learning how to twist right now. It’s hilarious. Your son is gorgeous.
Good taste in music

Oh how I miss those days, dancing around to “my” music and showing him the differences between guitars. Name that tune in the car….and him getting it right! Cherish these days, they are so special. I will never forget them!!

hey lotus! I know John is still traveling, but who is he playing with? I didn’t think Chris Cagle was touring much right now.

Yes, indeed, life is good.. Even when there are clouds, storms, and drought. Change is good. Life it good. And it’s good to have sisters to be there with you, through it all.
Love.
