the gift of days



...days all to ourselves.

to run
climb
ride...on a new-to-her bike with squeezy brakes not back-pedal brakes which is terrifying and careen-ish

to read...an entire afternoon for me, my tea and a whole world made of ink and imagination
to set a goal and pursue it and then
excel.....a fifth-place ribbon at Pony Club Quiz -- of course, not the reason why - but so full of affirming  goodness that one feels brave enough to try her D-test this spring.

to converse....about winning and losing and how mistakes are a great way to learn something

  1. I don't like squeezy brakes! I always squeeze the wrong one!

    Try slamming on JUST the front brake at 90 miles an hour.

    Story of my life!

  2. I so love this picture.

    I'm off to create an art journal out of a sketch pad, I think.
