the moment when rain turns to snow: softness.
the warmth of the diner.
off-key, but so enthusiastic. the platform was almost empty.

emily
she came to breakfast in her bathing suit. he wore fuzzy jeans again. they played outside for hours - building a snowman, a fort. i warmed soup for a late lunch.

the reading pulled a unexpected string of sorrow from within me. letting it go feels like i've untangled a bit of something that has been stuck for ages.

i often wonder how this will translate in her teenage years.
