today is friday. the sun is out again. i did a bit of pruning this morning. to clear a path. i go see mom on fridays. we go shopping and have coffee and chat and tell stories old and new. we check the garden and we laugh. sometimes, well quite often, mom digs through some old things and uncovers little treasures from the past and shares what she remembers about them. it is a gathering of many lifetimes. almost a party even though it is just the two of us.
i have been gathering a lot of the tiny things i have collected in my lifetime. gathering them all in one place so i can allow them to meet and interact. a little game playing. some sort of ceremony. they are small but the keep big dreams.
i have selected a few stories to share with mom today. she loves to know what is happening with me.
...of course i am usually stitching all the while we are together and i am taking one of the stepping stone pieces today. a couple of stray bits and pieces have begun to solve this crazy puzzle. yes!
