Good Mornings

Quiet morning in Shadyside, April 27, 2008

And these days
I wish I was six again...
-John Mayer, "83"

It's one of those perfect kind of mornings today. The kind where it's still really quiet outside, except for the birds and a few passing cars and it's sunny, but still a little chilly. I love it. When I walked outside and smelled the air, for a split second I wanted to be a little kid again. I remember how on mornings like this, especially during the summer, I would pour my cereal and go sit on our front porch . I'd lean against one of the posts along the front wall of the porch and dangle my feet over either side, just watching the neighborhood wake up. Those were the best kinds of mornings.

So there you go. No deep thoughts today, just a little reminiscing. Hope everyone is enjoying their morning, too.
