Monday.

A work-from-home morning walk.

It’s already so warm that I need to ditch the jacket.

Her. Her face and her smile and the ways her eyes twinkle. For having the space to do some truth-telling.

I tell her that this is one of the reasons I need a little bit more freedom. To be able to prioritize walks like these.

I survive the mall and buy everyone a cup of mall pretzels.

Waiting for emails.

Everyone looks so good in the pictures. Our first real family photo ever. Only took 15 years.

I see a little bit of a smile on his face.

School starts in two days.
