nothing like birthday season

(aka, june) to get me too busy to write, run, sleep...

last weekend we held a barbeque for j, and it was a really special day. there is something that always moves me about old friends from different pieces of your life meeting each other and enjoying each other - it feels a little bit like telling a secret, a really extra delicious secret. and j's birthday was a marvelous secret-telling, friend-sharing, remember-all-the-extraordinary-things-i-love-about-that-man kind of day.

and then after everyone left, and we'd done the dishes, fed the dogs, and tidied up, we noticed how pretty this is. and j, always thinking i'm pretty, which is very fortunate for me, took this little photo, and i think it does a very nice job of capturing how lovely that day, and our life, is.



love,
j

ps. dear jacob, i am so glad i was able to make your birthday a little extra special this year. to me, you are the one wonder of the world. there is nothing in this life (or any others) that beats your lovely self.
