Yawni Tiger

My little boy has REALLY been into his new indians, cowboys, and civil war guys that he got from my brother. He loves to set them up and the Indian on the running horse is his "Leader". It is so neat to see his little line-ups and stories he makes up. I didn't tell him about cowboys, indians, Union or Confederates. I wanted to see what he did not knowing any of those things.

A few little photos around our home in the city:)

Black and white art by Delfau who was a ballet set designer and married to Ruth Page. I purchased it at an art sale at my daughter's dance studio The Ruth Page Center for the Arts.

This piece is by our amazing friend Andy of Visual Armory.

One of our kitties Koneko peeking out the window:)

A classic city layout. Livingroom, diningroom and kitchen all in one space!

Koneko and our entry way bench. Art above is a watercolor by my dad.

SOUL hope

"It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something."
