They are easier to detect after the fact. They are uncanny encounters, brushes with the supernatural, where the presence of the Lover accompanies us in a very real way, sheltering, directing, loving, moving, giving life to our everyday existence. You can't totally explain the experience, but you leave shaken to the very depths, knowing that you have been kissed by the Divine.

a new face
Our long awaited Andrea ( my brother's wife) finally came to us from Germany last week. We have had lovely times since then. The loveliest of all was when she entertained all our kids allowing us parents to all take naps Sunday afternoon- does she ever know how to win her way into all our hearts!! The kids LOVE her and we think she's pretty fabulous too. Her transition here is going much smoother than ours has, partly due to the fact that her other half- my brother is already settled here and also we were able to tell her what she would need and in what order to get the things she needed.
We are so glad she is here and she has quickly become a vital part of our family. I've already learned a couple German words, although her English is fabulous.

I'm looking forward to pics of your new place.
Andrea looks so at peace in the first picture leaning up against her husband.
It is so good to hear that so many people and places in your life are finding their niche.
