... I would have us sit in the sunniest spot in the house...
... I would tell you the kids and I are surviving "winter break" with the help of chilly walks, movies, and playdates...
... I would tell you that I am stealing plenty of moments to work on my manuscript...
... I would share my excitement at the feelings of something amazing coming together...
... I would scoff at the your apologies for licking the grapefruit juice off your fingers and I would lick my fingers too...
... and by the time the last meaty bite of fruit was had, the sun would have moved into another room and it would be time for me to get back to work.
