The Things I Love About My Mother's House

  • I know where everything is, because everything is in the same place it has been for the last 30 years.
  • I can see the stars, and the clouds are lit by pure moonlight. There's no light pollution.
  • The dogs immediately sense that I need to be welcomed into the house by being covered with hair and tongues.
  • The ocean is in the periphery of everything and everywhere.
  • There is orange juice in the refrigerator and ice cream in the freezer. Always.
  • The mattress still has a Valette-shaped impression.

1 Love Notes

Even when I visit my parents in Missouri, they kitchen is stocked the same way it was up here. I love being able to find everything.
