… that day when abnormal began to feel a little normal.
When talks, and things I didn’t want to say, were from six feet away. When the plaster corners looked so good but my mind was too crowded to fully appreciate them. When I bought food supplies and left them on the doorstep. When my son texted me a pic of his food stocks, and we agreed that it would be a little while before we see each other again. That day when my heart simultaneously began to break, and grow stronger than I knew it could.
It was also the day mom shared her veggie soup with us, and my sister and I sat on the clean, new, deck and talked while the sun warmed our skin … with a little extra space between us.
I will be ready to stand in the sunshine with everyone I love, on the other side of this. <3
