driving home next to a lit-up christmas car
way deep in the holiday spirit
is that santa
out for a night on the town?

moved.
today a ladybug stopped by our classroom veterinary clinic
the kinder docs looked at it closely with a magnifying glass
decided it might be having trouble flying
after much discussion, more close looks, a few notes on a paper, a phone call,
and a blood pressure check of one of the other docs
their good care and magic worked
and the ladybug flew away home.

i recently had the pleasure
of attending my dear friend’s
book launch tea party.
i’ve known her as a caregiver from way back
when i taught her 3 children
and met a kindred spirit.
just some of those she’s cared for:
a menagerie of rescued pets
a kind and funny husband
three beautiful children
who became her family
when she traveled to korea
to find them
and bring them home
a feisty (highly spirited?) irish mother
all under her roof at one time
all the recipients of her loving care
even in the most challenging situations.
especially then.
all while working full time outside of her home
as an event planner, caterer, actress, and professional speaker
and she has written a book
about how to care for yourself and others
while finding your balance in that equation.
it’s a beauty of a book
full of reminders, tips, and love.
i’d recommend it for anyone
who has cared for someone, or has been cared for by someone.
ever the welcoming hostess
we shared lovely tea
and conversation
among many who care
about this amazing woman.
“there are only four kinds of people in the world.
those who have been caregivers.
those who are currently caregivers.
those who will be caregivers,
and those who will need a caregiver.”
