Before and After of Junk Mountain: The Removal. #kinardmove

I’m surrounded by creatives. #childrenofjoy #daughterofjoy

I’m home now from my last Paraklesis at St. Barbara before we move. My face is salted with tears, my fingers are sticky with ripe fig juice from the figs placed in my hand by a friend whose habit is to place encouragement. The courage of figs, the gift of dried tears, and the blessings of priest and chanter and friends: these are with me in the leave taking. #stbarbaradurham #kinardmove #beautyofholiness

Today was our last day at the church we love so much. We will be moving to another state soon, so we said goodbye to the classroom where we’ve spent so much time and built so much love. #childrenofjoy #orthodoxkids #kinardmove

I was out mowing the grass when the sunset hidden in trees behind me lit up the cloud in front of me pink. I have loved getting to garden here in Zone 7, though I know I will love the new yard in Zone 10, too.

Milestone!!! Bazzy just told me no when I said I’m taking his brother to a lesson. He said, “Mom mine” and grabbed my hand. “My Mommy! My Mommy!” He. Said. MY and MINE! Pronouns. Possession. I’m going to cry with joy over this breakthrough. #childrenofjoy #autistic #celebrate

Testing my sensitivity to a new eyeliner today with a reminder: Obsculta. Listen deeply with the heart.

Andrew found the box of magnets that we couldn’t find after our last move 7 years ago! They’re all consolidated now, and we are much better at labeling now than then. #childrenofjoy #kinardmove

I’m in the process of packing to move and stripping our personalities from the house to sell it. But in the top inside of one of the closets, I’m leaving this googly eye. Maybe it will be hilarious for the next family, or maybe it will stay stuck up there till the house falls to dust far into the future. At any rate, my need to be a little silly is accomplished. #kinardmove
