2 Friday's ago

Two Friday's ago I walked down shore road hoping to shoot the full moon that was pink the night before. Instead, I stood in the gazebo watching thunder storms and though I did get down the the swimming pool, it was clear enough that I'd better get home or get soaked.
Two Friday's ago I sat quietly in Holly's living room listening the the downpour. I followed Sophie's fearful attitude and attempted to close the front door, but, people were standing there in the rain - people that didn't belong in Magnolia.
Two Friday's ago they surprised me, travelling all the way across the country, no matter how uncomfortable the journey, stopping by after eating spagetti to sing "A very merry un-birthday" and fill me with so much love, excitement, and gratitude that I couldn't sleep until Saturday morning was almost there.
Thank you family, for pulling that one off!
