"What all will you see
when you see it without me?
What then will it mean?"

And the other little fireball that makes me the Uncle of two...
And the other little fireball that makes me the Uncle of two perfect nieces. Winnie, all sass and spunk and sarcasm and soul.

Text for Tired Eyes:
Just like shoes need feet to fill them and those feet need socks to warm them and the warmth needs the cold to feel warm at all and the cold needs our breath seen in the air to feel worthy and just like our breath needs our lungs to give it shape and those lungs need sighs to refill them and those sighs need eyes to inspire them and those eyes need glasses to protect their fragile and sunflowered color from the sunshine and the sunshine needs rain to make rainbows and those rainbows need cameras to immortalize them forever and just like those cameras need hands to push the shutter and lock tight its colors and those hands need to be held, soaking and shaking as they might be, I need you.
Part Three.
"Life lost in waiting
and days squandered all alone.
Start now this journey."

They know all the secrets that so many of us forget as we age....
They know all the secrets that so many of us forget as we age. They know the answers to the questions we are too slow to ask and they ask the questions whose answers we are too afraid to hear. Thank you for always reminding us. I love being an Uncle.

Text for Tired Eyes:
Just like the plants so longingly need the sunshine that they crane their little necks to the window and just like the window needs handprints and smudges and the residue of lips kissing goodbye and just like those lips need to form themselves in funny shapes to mouth out words and those words need wings to find themselves to ears and those ears need Q-Tips to clean them for hearing and those Q-Tips need the cotton and that cotton needs strong hands to free it from its branches and just like those hands need to be held, cut and bleeding as they might be, I need you.
Part Two.

to handle such emptiness.
Rise, and refill me."

I finished my bookshelves. I made them out of 1/2” plumbing pieces and some lightly stained wood with my amazing Mom, @tooltime33 who as usual went above and beyond the call of duty helping me get them done and helping me get the books in an order that made my eyes happy. Thank you Marmie. So much. Also, I spy a rad @cozycourage blanket by @headregal too. What a wonderful charity to support. Do so, if you aren’t already. Hope you like the shelves!

Text for Tired Eyes:
Just like the pen so desperately needs to bleed all over
the paper when pausing too long on the edges of a letter
and just like the paper so intensely needs to remember its
time as a tree and that tree needs to feel it’s longest
branches bouncing with the weight of a curious squirrel
and that squirrel needs to find just one more acorn before
the snow finds her and just like that snow needs to fall and
feel itself being rolled and squished into the head of a snowman
and that snowman needs a carrot for a nose and that carrot
needs a peeler in capable hands and those hands need to be
held, dry as they might be, I need you.
Part One.
