When my college student comes home and we’re all as one family…
I so appreciate just being together.
Being present in the same moment in space-time.
Looking them in the eye.
Seeing them smile.
Hearing their stories.
Listening to their laugh.
Feeling their energy.
Breathing the same air.
It’s a much deeper exhale and a much deeper inhale.
Both for my lungs and for my soul.
Life is just better.
My children are the only ones who know the breadth and depth of my love, for they’ve heard my lungs and my heart from the inside.
I love when I am with them.
Whether is a special occasion and part of life’s highlight reel, or just an ordinary afternoon.
I am forever grateful for this moment.

So beautiful, my friend. I’m excited that you will all be under one roof again soon.
