THE FIRST PHOTO WAS A MOMENT I DIDN’T WANT TO FORGET. ’stop! i need to grab the camera!’ i said it many times on saturday. it was one of THOSE days. pleasant, sweet, lovely, nice, perfect. i don’t want to forget this.
tommy woke up with wren and let me sleep until 10am. i treasure him! i cannot even tell you the last time i slept that long. a year and a half? two years maybe? he then made me breakfast – cheesy eggs with parsley, toast, coffee, delicious. i adore him! then came presents. a beautiful shirt and the most divine candle that has filled our entire home {now a scent memory, a sweet reminder of the day}. i am blessed by him! next, phone calls full of love and happy day wishes, the fun yellow dress with the birthday necklace, and an hour long back-and-forth whether to heed the tsunami warnings and stay away from the beach. hesitant, then with disregard, we went. imagine this for one moment: driving through the mountains, pouring rain, sun peaking just enough to bedazzle the atmosphere with rainbows, and the Sundays play on the radio. serious? come on. this was made for movies. pizza for lunch {pleasure pizza, my friends, pleasure!}, a stroll in capitola, admiration of the miracle of large waves, mr. toot’s for coffee, and sushi for dinner. a rarity. overindulgence. a special, special day. i love him! and most importantly, HIM for blessing, after blessing, after blessing. another year HE has me on this earth.
