A Picnic, Just Because

Because the sun was shining and the rain is coming. Because it made you really happy. Because the food we drop doesn't have to be swept up. Because the good china looks better with a dollar store straw. Because it made us slow down and have a conversation during lunch. Because listening to the wind in the trees is like music. Because it feels nice to say yes. Because the housework will always be there but you'll only be little once. Because I love you Emma Rose.
