Brief thoughts from the cabin

I sat down to write in our guestbook tonight and opened it up to the page from last summer and the last entry is from Esme.

"I am so glad to be here and see Harper and Campbell running around! What beautiful little children they are becoming. I love you! Esme. Happy B-Day aunt Sue!"

Everywhere I turn up here there's something that brings Esme and my mom in clear focus in my head - my mom's decorated outhouse, Esme's beach... yet it's so beautiful and peaceful up here that it seems like as good of a place as any to face the reality of losing those I love so dearly.
