A Week and A Day
From today, I have one week and one day left to wait until I fly to New Hampshire. I am so excited I can hardly contain myself!
I am excited…
- to meet my future sister-in-law and celebrate their engagement
- to see my Soph-a-loaf and rub her belly
- to flop on my bed and smell my childhood sheets
- to sit at the kitchen counter and talk to my Momma while she cooks
- to walk in the backyard and get bitten by mosquitoes
- to drink water from the well my dad dug with his bare hands
- to sit in the couch and watch TV until my folks fall asleep
- to sweat in the evening air like I’ve never sweat before
- to hug every aunt, uncle and cousin
- to pick blueberries in the back yard
- to soak up and memorize everything I love about this state and take it with me when I go
