your lip is cut on the edge of her pleated skirt...

For the past few weeks I have been in love with pine trees. I also want a cape. Maybe a rust colored plaid one. I am in my forest phase, hence the new title of my blog. More to come on this later. - And then in a more hidden corner of my mind I'm obsessed with willow trees and lagoons. Surely more will come of this in the future, as well. - Today Mom and I are maybe off to the Cape to see her friend Jill one last time before she returns to Ohio. That will be nice. Tomorrow is me, Ely, and a thousand butterflies! - before I go, some evidence of my new love of plaid:
