In August, I stock up on candles. "What is it, exactly, about November that is so-o-o romantic?" I often think to myself (counting nine months back) while signing card after card for various friends and family members celebrating their own end of summer birthdays within just a couple of weeks of each other. Today it was three-year-old Mary's turn and she drank in the attention, the serenading, the icing, and the presents with such delight.

You know....when I first came across your writing, the music I associated it with was the innocence mission. good intuition I suppose. more importantly....good music.
Yep, I second what Fr. Mathis said. Great song pic for this post, it's beautiful.
my own end-of-summer birthday is right around the corner and so it's extra fun to read these birthday posts. Thanks.
Oh my goodness. That is the most adorable picture - I am so sad I wasn't there!
Yes, indeed...very good music. I have to stop myself from using only Innocence Mission songs for my daily posts. Their cd's have pulled me through some pretty rough times as a mother. I am flattered that you connected my writing with their contemplative melodies!
Happy early Birthday to you, Neil! If I was there, I'd light the candle on your leftover coffee cake! :)
See you soon, Miss Carrie!
I may be a day late, none the less, Many many years to sweet Mary Catherine.
I adore the photo and thanks to you, The Innocence Misson.
