I am meant to live in a small town.
I long for a place where mornings start like this:
and nights end like this:
I dream of spending many hours on a front porch just suited for music & dancing & story telling & rocking sweet babies to sleep.
I need a place where my baby can eat his first scuppernong;
and then anxiously await his second.
with the prettiest of gals :-),
and get his first taste of what it might be like to play when he gets "biggah".
I want to look out my window and see cats sitting on white fences,
dogs being loved on by little hands,
and chickens roaming.
To be honest, though, I don't think I want to gather eggs,
but I do want to do some serious scuppernong picking
with some not-so serious pickers :-)
Oh how I look forward to Allen's homemade wine!
I think all little boys should grow up in a place where big boys teach them how to jump in mud puddles
& then look for frogs with them.
And finally I want to live in a place where it's totally acceptable for little boys to wear smocked outfits
especially when the smocking is of his parents' favorite SEC team. :-)
