And I got to hold a baby! 😁

The eight-month-old and I had a good chat while mum was dealing with a toddler having trouble with emotional regulation on the metro. I almost ate the wee one's toes right up, but restrained myself.

Good gravy is it good to exist in the world--grief and setbacks and all.

I have to start over on many, many fronts in my life, and I don't know how to begin just yet, but... at least I'm still here to try. One small impossible thing at a time.
