day 37

*slept in for the first time in months. ooo la la...feels so good

*the whole family lounged around the table and four spoons dug into a gallon of ice cream. i'm already lovin' summer...

*took buddy back to the old abandoned homestead to film again

*mom: "i saw something in your face the moment you stood up to play yesterday, heather."
me: "what was it?"
"you had a determination to play flawlessly. it was written all over your expression. you put every ounce of your focus into being proactive and chasing success. out of all the things you've put your mind to do, i've never seen you try so hard than for this one..."
easily made my whole week. mothers always know exactly what to say.

*found some old lyrics i'd scribbled on a taco bell napkin last year and bran found a tune that was stuck in his head. for barely trying at all i'm pretty sure we've just written our best song yet...


wage a battle against embitterment and take part in 365 days of Grace in Small Things.
