Sunlight through the leaves and that perfect vintage sweater - feeling like this often, honestly! A little cozy, a lot of magic... maybe just a hint of autumn breeze today. Loving these everyday momen...

The wool feels scratchy tonight, doesn't it? Not that bad – comfortable enough, when we let ourselves think so. More like a familiar annoyance than a burden. It’s been a while since we paid much attention to those things, hasn’t it? To the little annoyances that used to be the point. These boots, for instance - a bit worn around the heel, remember? Like us. We always did love a good well-worn thing.

There was rain earlier, didn’t there? A light drizzle, nothing dramatic. Just the way it should have been. Before, anyway. Before he said his piece, of course. Before the quietness became quite so...well, quiet.

Your eyes were interesting then, weren’t they? A touch skeptical, perhaps. Didn't entirely believe we hadn’t completely shattered, not yet. Now…now it’s more hesitant. Less certain you don’t miss the mess. This slightly rumpled silk scarf—your mother gave it to us, after all—a hint of nostalgia wrapped up nicely.

We haven't spoken about that in years, of course. Too painful, maybe. Or too obvious. The scent of woodsmoke still hangs in the room, faintly – that night last summer, outside the fireplace. Remember? When everything felt almost easy.

Now look at you. Slightly closer than you thought you dared. Are you wondering if we even noticed when you started drifting back into view? Probably not. That’s fine. Doesn' to matter.

Just…don’t move too quickly. And smile, if you can manage it. It has been a while since we saw one.”
