September

I love the first day of the month, and especially love September.  I think it’s my very favorite month of all.  It’s that back-to-school feeling.  I still think it’s time for new school supplies, new shoes, a new chance to not be the shortest kid in my class, (which didn’t happen until I got to college).  This always feels like the beginning of the year to me, not January in the midst of unchanging winter.  My birthday is this month, and lots of friends and family members have birthdays this month (Cecelia, Martha, Kent, Anita, Nancy, Katie, Jenny) and wedding anniversaries (Cheryl and Dean, Laura and Daniel, Sundee and Matt).  Lots of celebrations and gift giving and happy thoughts.

Happy September 1st..
