Doodling cartoons before dancing to Elvis. Perfecting yoga poses on the living room floor. Wading in water only to her knees while holding onto one more blessed child. Sharing the turkey wish bone. Only speaking the best of everyone. Trusting the universe as her own. Knowing there is a higher place to finally find a home. Most wondrous woman we have ever known."
