my week in objects (mostly).

cheeries, hoodies, crafties. and other things.

1. these cherries.

{and my kids’ cherry-stained cheeks.}

2. this sweatshirt.

{and a brief return to hoodie weather.}

3. this dried linden.

{for being shiny and perfect.}

4. these potholder loops.

{and the v unconventional way they entertained an apartment full of kids.}

5. this kumihimo loom.

{because there’s no better way to start summer than with a fresh friendship bracelet.}

other things:

you may hear singing.

more than our fear.

a singular source of joy.

navigating the horror, the banality and also the beauty of the world.

a 33-year-old man talking about kindness, loving your neighbor, helping the poor!?

through creativity and sometimes force, we will make spaces work for us.
