Today...
A slice of Hippy Banana bread with breakfast
I got to see my Logan! He was buckled in his car seat, couldn't hug him but we talked. I blew him a kiss, he caught it. Then he blew me a kiss, I caught it and I'm never letting it go.
That made my day, my week, my month.
Then I got in a good walk before the heat hit.
On my walk, I came across this year's first round of ducklings.
Finished, and passed, one of my online courses.
It feels like summer.
