When


When the sun glows bright
to make shadows straight,
when the birds have
ended their debate;
draw close to me
lover, friend.
I am here-
my heart
to send.

When springtime rains have come 
and ended, when lovers too, 
their doubts have mended;
draw close to me from 
water's edge. I am 
here- my 
heart to 
pledge.

Wow.  It's been a reeeally long time since I've written anything.  

Today's to do list: 
Errand, errands, errands, read, errands, dinner with Lauren, dream of Chris.

love,
heidi

Meet the Lewises

Well, as for my first post, I suppose I should start out with an introduction.

I am a 23 year old wife and mother of one exicted and confused goldfish named Fishy. As for my husband Chris, he also is excited and confused, but not so much both at the same time as our poor fish is. He's for the most part extremely smart and painfully hilarious. And he's my very best friend. If this was the year 1820, we would be explorers. Lewis and Lewis.

As for me, I love Jesus. Although sometimes I don't quite understand what that means or how to do it, or how I can forget about it so easily. But I'm learning. By God's grace, I'm learning.

I am obsessed with nostalgia and things of the past. It facinates me so, and for this reason I often wish that I was a time traveler. I love birds and trees, and being outside. I love riding Chris and my tandem bicycle. I enjoy old movies, the kind with horrible special effects and over dramatic actors. I have a serious crush on Audrey Hepburn. I enjoy poetry, and tend to get very excited when I understand it. I like to write. I have started and stopped many books, and have finished only one. A children's book entitled, "On the Seat of a Swing." It's probably my most cherished accomplishment. I spend a lot of my time reading. If you have any good suggestions, send them my way, it would be most appreciated.

I very much dislike my job, to the point of hatred on most days. But, oh well. I guess that's the thorn in my side. Atleast for now.

love,
Heidi
