The Things I Love
Greetings, Valentines! It's a bit belated, but I've been contemplating the many things I love in this season of hearts and heartfelt love letters. Here are a few of the things I love most:
My husband: This love is both obvious and not the least bit commonplace. I am constantly surprised and challenged by my husband's curiosity and interests. I've learned to love how human he makes me feel, his lack of interest in how others perceive him, his amazing need to know about the world around him.
My dog, Obadiah: Talk about steadfast. My little cattle dog mix is the most consistent cornerstone in my life. I love how his whole body shakes and wags when I get home. I love his tentative and finicky habits and his alertness. I love how he tiptoes around things on the floor and cuddles with us in bed in the mornings.
French toast drenched in syrup: Best variety: at the Village Coffee Shop in Boulder. Enough said.
Louisville: Being part of a small historic downtown is an amazing privilege. I love that I can call the little coffee shop/cafe nearby and that they know my order. I love that my neighbors drop by for advice or just to chat. I love that I can walk to work and that my dog is well known throughout the town.
Coats: I have a prized collection of vintage coats. Every year I try to clean out my closet and every year I fail when it comes to these works of arts! What's not to love?
Nighttime snow: I adore fresh snow lit by the magical and mysterious moon. I love walking through all that newness by a light I don't get to partake of often enough.
Other things I love (in no particular order): thunderstorms, clean sheets, puppies, flea markets, the movie Stranger Than Fiction, Plum's new CD of lullabies, sleep & hibernation during winter, cottage gardens, pickles, lizards and making forts.
