Happy Engageaversary

Three years ago today Jeff and I made crepes, went on a hike, read Billy Collin's poetry, went to the temple and got engaged. The whole evening ended at a restaurant I had always wanted to go to: The Melting Pot. A magical place where the fondue flows like water and there is no end of things to dip in said flowing fondue. It was an amazing day. One that has lead to three wonderful years together and a bright future. Here's to love and learning how to make fondue (today).

Hello blogging world! It's been way too long. The writing of poems continues, but it turns out having more than one blog often leads to neglect of one of them. Well, here is a short little verse I wrote after feeling our little boy kick for the first time:

The belly, full and round isn't beautiful to me.

Except when I feel his body, stretching and turning.

Hello, little man.
