And you?

Sloggy mind, fresh popcorn, green tile table,small wooden bowl with the last few pecan pieces and nut dust, Matthew's water bottle, the top of my water bottle peeking over the back of my laptop screen, voices of doubt, empty spaces, tall trees I climbed at Brummel Park, 2 washcloth napkins, a stack of various gluten free flours.

Sadness, slowness, peaceful, childlike, staring at large dry leaves the boys brought in last autumn after a walk with dad, shy, sensitive, eating handfuls of the popcorn, editing before I write.

Courageous, healing, creative, fascinated, loving, determined, prayerful, thoughtful, grateful, wondering why I ever forget, even for a second, how amazing my family is.

My name is Heidi Beth. I am a Baha'i', a wife, mother, daughter, aunt, sister in law, friend, writer, baker, cook, teacher, actress, gathering initiator, student, holder of visions, observer, keeper of art, listener, wanderer.
