Old Age Day by Day January 25, 2012

The frogs were singing last night.  They are evidently extremely happy to have the rains come.  I love to lie in bed and hear them.  Elemental joy.  Ah.

Last night we connected with an old friend's daughter.  She was delightful, and looking at her, and seeing the mix of both her parents in her face was touching.  She's clearly super intelligent, and determined and independent.  We agreed to see a movie together next week.  I hope she becomes a friend of our daughter's, but you can't push these things, only encourage.  They seemed to have a lot to talk about around teaching. 

We've known her dad for over thirty years, and her mom almost as long.  I really treasure those connections when they come alive again.  Kind of like listening to the froggies.
