The way to love someone
is to lightly run your finger over that person's soul
until you find a crack,
and then gently pour your love into that crack.

Today ... well this afternoon ... was one of those days that I enjoy so much. We sat down to a lovely meal. Four of our five children were there. Three refused to try the brussels sprouts. He was eventually persuaded and he observed that they taste almost exactly like broccoli. He is right. It was a lot of fun to laugh with every one. Three also opened the wine today - it was the first bottle of wine he has ever opened and he did a great job. One showed him how and explained that only champagne "pops". I like having adult children. One said "grace" at his Dads request ... he was teasing his little sister who was fussy about the seating arrangements ... they both had their eyes open the whole time ... she stuck out her tongue at him. My husband and the two other children had their eyes shut ... not everyone prays with their eyes shut. My dog was pretty happy with the scrapes and steak bones.
