    Photos the deserve to be in magazines. Beautiful.

    And can I admit? Can I admit that just now - just now I took the time to read that poem you posted at my place? Merisi, I am crying. True, it's late. True, I've my period. True, my life is upside down. But what a gift you have given me. I weep. It is beauty.

    Have a wonderful holiday. Enjoy it all.
