I used to carry you
on my shoulders
or on my hip
these days I send
a funny tweet
a loving text
should you emoji
something...
anything
I'll know that you're
fine or okay
and alive

You are going to make me cry. A bit on the nose these days.
p.s. I love that ee cummings poem you're alluding to.
StephLove--Sorry. I know they're off doing good things and finding themselves, but it's difficult not to worry. Especially when they're as far away as N is currently.
I had to read that a few times before I figured out which N you meant-- since you have one and I have two- and they are all far away in different ways. I think you meant the one in Australia, but I meant the one who's home now and not really fine or okay but alive.
Oh, Steph. I thought it was the far away child you were worried about (I wonder if At's ok if I haven't heard from him all day...). But it's extra heartbreaking that it's the child who's under your roof you're worried about. I have a good feeling that things will get better. They have so much going for them and a super supportive and loving family.
(And I'm sorry that my comment was confusing--I'm looking at the time stamp, and apparently I wrote this just as Nicole was beginning to wake up...)
