Why I Wake Early - Mary Oliver
Hello, sun in my face.
Hello, you who made the morning
and spread it over the fields
and into the faces of the tulips
and the nodding morning glories,
and into the windows of, even, the
miserable and the crotchety –
best preacher that ever was,
dear star, that just happens
to be where you are in the universe
to keep us from ever-darkness,
to ease us with warm touching,
to hold us in the great hands of light –
good morning, good morning, good morning.
Watch, now, how I start the day
in happiness, in kindness.

He likes me to unwrap the little maple seeds around here. Then he takes it somewhere, calling it his lucky seed.
As we were out walking this morning, "We're seeing lots of special things. It's a special day."
"How fascinating."
"Mommy say it again about Ga-a (his fast way to say his name now) ji-destion (digestion)."

So wonderful! Love all of these pictures! Thanks for keeping the daily updates rolling. Hard to believe it's already approaching a whole year. You'll be so glad you kept this blog updated, with the little man growing up so fast. Tell Fraser that he is greatly missed at NIST. (Poet and don't know it.)
