It's interesting how, as a certain date fast approaches, we all seem drawn to the tree. Our special tree. We didn't plan it. We didn't set out this morning, and say, "let's go hang out at the tree for an hour." But, that's exactly what happened. We set out to go for a walk. But, our special tree...it called to us. We listened. We answered. We sat by our tree. We played by our tree. We watched butterflies by our tree. We brought our new babies to our tree. We sat in the grass. We watched the sun through the leaves. We even brushed a few spiders off our arms. But, somehow, in the shade of our tree, nothing seems to disturb the peace. Not even spiders. Somehow, in the shade of our tree, in the peace of our tree, the spiders somehow enhance the feeling of peace. And quiet. And togetherness. And love. Always, intense love and thankfulness and appreciation in the shade of our tree. I love it there. We all do.
Thankful for our tree. And the warm, peaceful, breezy, summer morning we spent there.
