Today started off with a concertina performance, followed by a phone call (on the remote control), and a reading of many books. This afternoon we went outside to walk on our "red carpet." Our Japanese maple tree is shedding its beautiful leaves, gracing our lawn with a beautiful sprinkling that is too pretty to rake! It's amazing. I grew up with the same exact tree near our driveway. I always said I'd have to have one of those maples in my yard when I grew up. When we bought the house it was February and trees were not at all on my mind. They were all gray and colorless. I was so pleasantly surprised when I realized my dream had come true even though I hadn't really sought it out on purpose.
