My Tuesday Muse

Posted on | April 12, 2011 | 9 Comments

This boy and I get to spend Tuesday mornings together, and how I love this time. He is my muse, this little one. He reaches for the world, grinning, offering joy, laughter, and his face upturned for kisses, cheeks jammy, eyes sparkling. How I love him.

Also–My guest post is up over at 3six5 today. Go take a peak. It’s such a cool blog–and just got nominated for a Webby!

    Such a beautiful kid you have there! You can almost feel his spirit coming right through the screen.

    I clicked on over and read your post at 3six5. I loved it. Such a wonderful essay. And, what a cool idea for a website project! I don’t have time to read it right now…but summer is coming!

    Thanks for passing along the 3six5 link—neat blog. I was able to secure a date for myself in October!

    Congratulations on your new book; I hope there are more in your future! I am an avid reader of yours but mostly lurk instead of commenting.
