How I welcomed December in...

“That is why, walking across a school campus on this particular December morning, 

I keep searching the sky. As if I expected to see, rather like hearts, 

a lost pair of kites hurrying toward heaven.”
― Truman Capote

 This morning we ate Belgian waffles with raspberries on top while still cozy in bed

and laughed as Lucy howled about welcoming the new day.

Later, I opened the window in our bathroom and watched the steam from the shower 

puff up and swirl against the cold air.

And that is how I welcomed December in...

with warm steam filling my lungs and cold air simultaneously taking my breath away.

 Happy December!
