A Normal Day
“Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while I may, for it may not always be so. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return.”
― Mary Jean Irion
first road trip. first time seeing the ocean. first sink bath. so many firsts cast the spotlight on the new baby. the light that once shined only for you. but even from the shadows where you watch with curiosity, the light still reaches out to you.
