little loves can ask a lot.

“More? More?”

yesterday he learned to kiss with sound and my heart burst. that squeak on my cheek and his proud, happy eyes.

for days my hands smelled like clementines, and I Sang the clementine song for all the naps that didn’t take (and all the ones that did, too).

we try bit by bit to make sense of the things in the house. to let things go.

That way there is more room for singing.
