In The Wee Small Hours


A sweet baby sleeping, a cool breeze blowing, tomorrow's dinner marinating, Diana Krall singing, a fragrant candle burning, the evening sun setting, and a daughter soon returning. This moment of quiet solitude and bliss is rare and worth remembering.

Have you read anything by Annie Dillard, specifically An American Childhood?

Kenna, no but I want to. Do you want to mail it to me?
Vanessa, hang in there with the move
Lynette, the moment was fleeting and another tsunami came quickly behind and knocked me over again, so yes we have to appreciate what we can
