1997.

just went and saw my old house with mom today.
i haven't been able to stop crying for the past hour.
my room is so different, my kitchen, my backyard.
i grew up in that house for 11 years. it was mine.
it was one of my clear memories. one of my good memories.
don't think i've cried this much in so long.

i thought i could handle it. apparently not.

shine through the stars.

the summer sends its love to you. the same as every year.
–sherwood

today is love. i've got some burnt cheeks, mom found some good songs for summer, our little baby birds have hatched, found an old home movie of mom and dad making up dances out on the pier. [hilarious]

come in with the rain.

first bad storm of summer.

hince by the look of the bed,

mom was called in,

and we kinda had

a rough night C: ha. somtimes mom

doesn't realize other people

are sleeping beside of her.

or the fact that dad is

the only one she's

allowed to kick.

welcome to the fam.

meet the newest member of our family...

abigail.

micah 6:8

he has showed you, what is good.
and what does the Lord require of you?
to act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.

sweet summertime.

surprising lunch C: whew. i'm happy.

this summer is turning out to
be much better than expected.

fiftynine.

happy birthday old mann C:

too far.

i think i'm becoming a

touch obsessed with

taking pictures.

another good night watching

movies with mama by the fire.

without this rational yet haywire element, she wouldn't be learning, or growing, or finding herself. that's all she is trying to do. is to find herself.
that's the beauty of this journey.
