We went to a beautiful place. It was cold and windy with pockets of warm still loveliness.
We walked the whole way along a pretty little stream. We had a little snack on an old tree stump. We sat at the edge of a tiny waterfall.
Baby girl touched algae and learned how mountains make rocks. For a moment all the world fell away and it was truly perfect.

Then we stepped up to our ankles in cold mud and she started crying. We changed in the parking lot. I had a black nightgown in the truck. I wore it the rest of the day, to dinner and everything. I felt soft and feminine and it was a wonderful way to spend the day.
