small things...

16 asking me in the car which song it is
by damien rice
where he says why did you sing hallelujah...
she invariably teases me about my music
{she is all classic rock and punk...}
but i think i am slowly opening her mind
bit by edgy pink-hair-leather-jacket bit...

tiny cherry tomatoes...i am in love with
these tomatoes...so sweet and salty and juicy...
i ate the whole package myself...

the comforting sound of the heat kicking in...

12 sharing all of his halloween loot with his father and sister,
without even a grimace...

the promise of warm chocolate chip cookies later today...

eating egg and bacon english muffin sandwiches and talking
about our favorite christmas cartoons...and that the kids
automatically know which ones are mine...

Isn't it the most remarkable feeling to be known by your children?
