it started out that we went walking when there was some daylight left, but then had to turn back home to get dinner out of the oven (quiche). fragmented walk. the moon was out when we returned to our walk later. it was a half moon and it was october. and it is. we counted pumpkins. we put seeds in pockets. some of us had our pants on backwards. one person had on lightning shoes that streaked orange in the dark. or, the darkyness, as he liked to call it. there were questions. the dog, q, was good. now he constantly asks for stories: tell the story about birthday, about the walk in the woods, about the house, about the time we built the lego castle. stories of halloween. tell about the moon, and the walk we went on in october. that night, he asked me to tell him the story about the people who live in the house and love each other.
Just gorgeous, Blue. All of it, all you.
