The Way It Is

The Way It Is...



I am here, after many years of wishing, hoping, and praying.  I feel like all of these methods of connecting with our higher selves are connected.  I feel like so many of these methods are intertwining.  

Molly wants to attend Bryn Mawr College after she graduates (she's only 16!) but I am entirely into it, as I have witnessed SO MANY owls after she told me!  It's really weird.  However, I am ready for her to go away and so is she.  I will REALLY miss her and her dumb cat, but she's also ready to go away!  

Grace Ann wants her bed/room, and then next year when Molly moves away Griffin will move upstairs and then we will have all of the downstairs as our game room/family room, etc!  It's FREEZING down there, always, even in summertime, so Tyler will probably want to move down there, but that is okay...I know how to layer.  

Anyway, I'm glad My Girl is getting a chance to live her dreams!  She's my firstborn, my pride and joy.  She's done so well!  33, 30 ACT scores, and we are awaiting for her 3rd score!  I made her breakfast that morning, so hopefully it helped, plus also she has told me MANY times how confident she felt about her score!  It's ultimately, though, just the way it is...and if Molly is meant to go away, she will.  If not, she won't.  She hasn't had a seizure since December.  I am SO SO SO thankful!

    My name is Elizabeth, and I come bearing gifts.  I have a story to tell, you see.  Several stories, really.  I joke that writing is cheaper than therapy, and it is true that writing has been life-changing for me in so many ways. 

    I want you to feel free to click the YouTube arrow to play the music while you're indulging yourself here.  Go ahead, put it on loop for the time it takes you to read the entire passage.  I promise, you won't be sorry.  Why, I listen on loop as I write these memories, these scenarios, these monumental lessons of my life.  You know, so I can feel the music inside of me.  It is my belief that we, all of us, have memories linked to the things we love most:  Beauty, Food, Scent, Touch, and Sound. 


    ​With this blog, it is my intention to honor those memories through the five senses.  We will explore together a little bit of art, food, smelly-goods, tactile pleasures, and melodies that take us allllll back, all the way back.  I invite you to come along for the drive, so to speak, because I have lots to talk about.  And of course, as someone who wants to be your friend, I want to know how you feel, too, because in kindergarten we learned that this is how a friendship works...give and take.  Are you with me?  

     Alrighty then.  Let's Do This!
