***
the kind of day that dawns with a veil of mist clinging to it.
A mist that stays, hazy over the blue sky.
A quietening sky.
All day.
And all day we drove through the mist,
out into bright, warm sunshine,
like summer.
And then home again to the sea,
and the mist.
A quiet sea today.
Little waves rolling gently back over themselves,
surf sucking back through shingle.
And as the day dies,
sliding down behind the mountains,
the mist silently gathers round.
Around the clamouring birds,
around the still grass.
Around the little house.
Quiet. Waiting.
Creeping into the garden, whispering to the grass.
Watching, taking care.
Shadowing the mountains.
We miss your little voice echoing through the house,
your little feet.
Get better!
You have a big day tomorrow!

How is the birthday boy this morning? Poor little mite. There is nothing like the silence where there used to be chatter and little boy stuff everywhere. Hope he gets better soon.....
Beautiful words, as always an inspiration.
Beautifully written, I hope your little lamb has a wonderful day.

Happy Birthday! We hope you are feeling well! If not quite better yet, tell Mommy, "Jello! Popsicles! Ginger Ale! Peppermint!" And if a wee little bit better than that, maybe "Cotton Candy! Ice cream! Custard!" ;)
Most of all, feel well and HAPPY DAY! :)
