maggie is on her way. she is brave. i am lucky.
we don't know what lies ahead, only what is behind us.
you know how they say "leap and the net appears",
well, she did it.
i think it's going to be good.
she taught me that God is good, all the time.
still, it takes courage to leap.
i will gladly be a net.
we can't return, we can only look behind from where we came
and go round and round and round . . .

Cathy,
I was wandering around Anthropologie yesterday looking for something special for the girl we're adopting from Ukraine. I saw these poetry bowls and instantly thought of you and Bri. Since I don't have $58 to send you the bowl, here is a picture of it and the poem I love.

It reads:
in the disquiet of these days i carry you with me.....deep within my pocket.....at the bottom of my footfall....in every cloud ...that brushes by....

I would send you an email, but I don't have yours. :)
Like I said, I've been thinking of you.

I feel so honored to have met Maggie. I look forward to getting to know her more.
Thank you for taking time with me last week...to let me vent, cry, and absorb some of your goodness. I was in desperate need of refilling.
You are a blessing.
