On Tour With The Girl

Up and down the coast of Maine. Popping in and out of stores. Trying on shoes. Being patient while Mom buys new underpants, and bulk grains, and coffee. Sitting in a diner booth eating a scone together. Making new friends at the Ellsworth Library. Crying in the car. Laughing as our knees get tickled. Holding hands on the sidewalks of Belfast. Running around in circles with friends in Calais. Running in the sprinkler in Brunswick. Running through the orchard in Freeport. Sticking out tongues, naming body parts and poking belly buttons. Cuddling and missing Puppa. Calling Puppa, Mumma. Kissing and hugging and animal that will let us. Being companions and friends and Mother and Daughter.

Love that girl of mine.
