*Waking up in the morning with Norah snuggled into me
*Getting a call from Lisey every week and remembering how lucky I am to have someone who always remembers to call, even though I never call anyone.
*Thigh-high panty hose
*Looking at patterns with Mabel, or looking at things we like and figuring out how they were made
*Riding my bike downtown
*Coming home and opening the door and hearing Norah’s little feet running to me, and her shouting “ah-meee! Aaah-meee!”
*Finally getting up the nerve to use that *perfect* fabric I’ve been hoarding
*Making homemade bread for the people I love
*Norah laughing hysterically when I hold her upside down and tickle her belly
*Going back and reading something old I wrote and realizing, “wow, that’s actually pretty good!”
*Tiny Norah shoes sitting next to giant daddy shoes
*When Mia tells me a story from work and I see her heart and the realization that she claims me as her friend honors and pleases me so much it physically hurts
*Norah kisses
*Friends asking me to hem/repair/sew for them
