Special Exposure / Wordless Weds: Now

It's been another tough couple of weeks. I feel like a broken record, but so it is. We've had another loss in the family -- someone who was far from our daily lives, but part of our family history. Closer to home, a friend and their family suffered a great loss. Dealing with money issues feels like trying to slay a Hydra, and our wonderful respite care person is moving on and out of our daily sphere of living.

These are the times when I feel like crying, but feel best when I can just stop and just be in the Now. Hug my kids. Kiss my husband. Sit outdoors in the green and colour that are fueled by summer. And breathe. Love what I still have, while it's still here with me, in the Now.
