Happy News...


Breath held, no sound…
just the beating of your heart
Waiting now, spellbound…
just the beating of your heart
Slow and steady cadence,
Slow and steady rhyme
And then…
And then…
A moment of awareness,
frozen now in time.
Breath held, no sound…
the beat of another heart,
fast and steady, joined with yours
in a harmony sublime
Your life is blessed forever now…
Your heartbeats are entwined.



Mr. Jenny and I have a new Grandlittle on the way. We're a tiny bit sad because this tiny one is growing rapidly up in Oregon...which is close to a million miles away. And April seems far, far away as well.

    It will be nice to visit Oregon when you have to get away from that scorching desert you live in.

    Congratulations, my sweet Jenny! I'm so happy for you. Maybe the grandlittle will move closer to home. You never know. They say that sometimes when grandlittles come and littles get to be in their mid thirties that they want to renest near the old stomping ground. We can hope, can't we???

    Love you...

Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! My handy dandy e-mail assistant always notifies me when you do and I read every single one.

I try to respond to comments with a return e-mail BUT I just noticed that I've been answering a lot of them to blogs that haven't linked their e-mail address to their Google account! I haven't been ignoring your comments, but now I know you aren't getting my reply e-mails! I'm sorry!

I know a lot of other bloggers who respond to comments via e-mail so if you haven't left off your e-mail on purpose, you might want to add it on! If you don't know how you can let me know in your comment and I'll see if I can help you!

Thanks so much for reading my 'Tangents'! Your comments always feel like a hug!
