Today I will take a walk through the woods, to look at the leaves and to breathe the air. In February you will be born, and before then the leaves will turn yellow and orange and brown, and fall to the floor, and maybe snow will come and cover everything. But it will melt and you will be here. Here to see the leaves return, little green buds on bare branches.

Through the darkness into the light. I can't wait to meet you.

Hi Sarah
I guess congratulations are in order :-) Glad to hear that you are alright and still blogging.
You probably will not have much time for printing and bookbinding in February!
