The Waking
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know?
I hear my being dance from ear to ear.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you?
God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there,
And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how?
The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair;
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do
To you and me; so take the lively air,
And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.
--Theodore Roethke

Photos
I've posted the pictures from the day at the play area last Saturday. One of them is good, but the other one is sort of blurry. He was in constant motion. The shoes he was wearing were before I read the Kangarules posted on the (yep) kangaroo. Brendan noticed the other kids and took off his shoes. This was after he made two of them cry because of his exuberance. We're working on this. He's 17 months old and learns fast, so there's definitely hope.
Others are posted from today at Ellendale's for Brian's and my birthday brunch. We ate outside on the deck and enjoyed the beautiful weather. I got some sweet and funny cards and can't believe I'm this old!! How did this happen so fast?
