Sunday

Sunday mornings are my favorite time of the week. The girls come home with thier laundry and stories of thier weekend. The house feels vibrant again with them in it. The laziness of the day feels good even though it really isn't any different from my other lazy days accept they are here. I read my email and find some wonderful surprises. I get an email from my niece in Puerto Rico......makes me really happy. She is my niece yet we only have met twice in our lives......I got to meet her wonderful family last summer. The connections is strong even though we live so far away from each other. Her husband is the type of person you want to be in a room with. Full of laughter and kindness. Her daughters are sweet and shy....reminding me of my girls when they were little. I wish we lived closer so my girls could get to know their family they have only really known through pictures and telephone calls. It is my goal that my girls connect with their family in Puerto Rico....I will wish and pray on this.
The next email I open is from an art studio. They are asking me to display for the month of August. This is a true surprise to be asked. I had a show in Hollywood last month and did really well......but to have a venue close to home is going to be awesome. I have been lazy about painting and taking photographs......my mind goes to what should I display. Some paintings are like my family.....tied up with emotion....I hate to part with them. I will have the girls go through the work and decide what I am showing. The sadness of yesterday is tucked way in the back......I am hoping it stays there. Right now I will plan on what to cook for the girls...something easy yet a favorite. Sundays are the best.
