{Week 38}

 Week 38:

Blurred beauty called waiting... an unhurried state of limbo... often frustratingly so...

Focusing on lists of things to get done... taking the time to relax, to rest... surviving heat and enjoying coolness in any form... wondering, "What is parenthood like?... Who is this little person?... Is one ever prepared?" 

Without any answers to these questions, tossed as they are in space and ticking time, we know that we shall learn them any day now... wonderfully unprepared, as all parents that ever were.

Fingered stretch marks
In the dark
Signs of ripening
Of a season
Waxing, waning

Fresh grooves penciled
On translucent skin
Tell stories of a life to come

late night reflection




Red Raspberry Leaf tea... an amber liquid of everything good for those carrying a wee life
Creations for Baby 
The grace of promised husband-flowers
Knitted yarns, waiting to warm a little body

  1. Lovely, Sarah! I still would love to take up knitting "someday." So excited for you. Craig and I are expecting #3...I'm about 3 months along now :-)
