i am
passionate
emotional
adored
impatient
raising boys
i love
rainbows
fresh flowers
picnics on blankets
the paint department of hardware stores
all things apple
i dream
often
of becoming a midwife
of a house by the beach
of learning to play the violin
of finding a baby on my doorstep
i adore
holding hands
shoeboxes of photographs
pretty dresses
vintage things
springtime
i believe
in true friendship
that tea is best with chololate
that children are a gift
in the power of music
in happy endings
