cartographic lines within your veins

"How did this happen? How did she grow up? It was not fast. They all say it goes fast. But that wasn’t the feeling. It was its impermanence. Every moment never lasts."

Im teaching three classes this semester. Our schedule is all new and so many things are happening, I'm too busy to write out the emotions. But just looking at the difference in Rosie from the first day of 3 year old preschool to the first day of 4 year old preschool fills my eyes with tears.

Owen's not that happy about it, either. He wants to go to school, too.

But for now (for now, for now) he's home with me.
