six months

Our first and our last are runs because it's been a while since we've been on the hill. It gets dark enough that we use the light and begin slapping hands and saying, "You got this."

"You're amazing."

Tadpole says, "I'm fast now."

"Yes."


Today I am grateful for six months ago yesterday, for a book and a choice and some kids and a hill.
I am grateful for enough good food and plenty of good will.
