RIDING THE WAVE


This week on the beach with Joseph, Danielle and Owen reminded me of how much I love the sea. The sounds, the sights, the smells and the feel of the sand and sun. It was what I needed right about now.
One of the books I read to Joseph on his sleep overs with Memere and Pepere was " Is there really a human race". He loves this book. It's a good view of how life is a race. I can relate to this. It just good to slow down the race and share the journey with those we love.
There will be another wave along soon to ride.

Life is good!
This was taken a week ago when the sun finally decided to show. Since then Joe has been reclining at the VA in West Roxbury. The doctors were perplexed that his heart passed all the tests. It's difficult to measure how big his heart is. No test can measure his love for giving to others. That's what he suffers from. His heart is unblemished by envy or greed. He is always there in times of desperate need. It pains him when he can't give as much as he wants. In tough times he suffers not for himself but for those he can't help. This is why I love my Joe. He makes me want to contribute in any way I can. No matter how small. With a smile or a hello or to hold the door open for someone. He has taugt me that it doesn't cost anything to be kind yet kindness does not mean weakness. In these difficult times we are all tested. I don't test well. Joe does. So I guess that's why we seem to always land on our feet. The yin and yang of it is what makes it interesting.

SUESUN






How blessed am I. Exactly one week ago coming to the Right coast to start a new adventure not knowing what to expect and already I'm in a comfortable, welcoming space. The sun hasn't made an appearance physically but Suesun has. She made sure the sunshine in our lives was present in our sweet abode. Familiar and precious photos, delicious foods and drink, keys and a sincere welcome home from Suesun. Life is good.

MISSING MY SUNSHINE


The last bit of sunshine I saw was Wednesday's sunset over Provincetown as the plane descended for Logan Airport. The sky has been weeping ever since. My sunshine is never hard to find though. It's in Nicole and Cooper's smile. It's in Danielle and Joseph's smile. This is the Sunshine of my life. I am blessed.

LAST DAY AT MACAMBRIDGE PARK

We spent this sunny beautiful morning in the park. This park became our back yard and go to place for the past two years.
Cooper's last time playing in the mirror entry way to his old home. A routine where he would always stop at this spot.
Cooper is Pepere's Buddy.
and Memere's Sunshine.

A SATURDAY AT GRIFFITH PARK

First stop at the park is the train ride.



Cooper and I enjoyed the ride. He kept his hands and head inside the car the whole ride because the conductor said too!


Pepere and Cooper enjoyed some popcorn while waiting for a second ride on the train.

Pepere had too much popcorn and couldn't fit in the train so Memere went again.


Next stop is the pony rides. Cooper loved his horse and gently patted his mane to say hello.


Next was the Merry-go- Round. It appears he was more comfortable on the real pony!
