I have a little friend - whom i adore - sitting contently next to me.
her name is pea olive and she is my youngest daughter - with a fever, content to be just next to me, leaning her head on me, sucking on her hospital pacifier -which she only uses in her crib but there are always exceptions - yes ;) - how blessed am I!!!
Usually I would be continuously pulling her off the table, off my desk, down from the couch - she would want to be typing - but not now, no -she is content. It makes me think about my contentedness and where I find those places where I am pleased to just sit, sit with someone who I feel safe with, someone I can trust, somewhere I love - I am that for her right now and I love that I get to be. Where or who is that for me - have many thoughts about that -something good for me to think on....
Speaking about P. olive and peas - Grace and I shelled fresh sugar snap peas and fava beans. As we opened up their little home, there they lay, hanging out with their family, nestled close or surrounded by a soft sweater (you must feel the inside of a fava bean). They are so cozy in their shell. This is definitlely their safe little place where they are content to just sit and be!
