Lately I've been in love with this little book of eccentric passages by Monique Duval. Her words are so magical and innocent and hopeful, I had to share some favorites.You ask me how things work. I think of endless cycles, the hum and spin of everything. So I tell you this: hold the pale green stalk up high. And then run hard so the wind will catch the wings of the dandelion seeds. Let them fall like sparks, like stars, back to the earth. I can tell you are not satisfied. but really. That's all there is to it: the persistence of yellow.
She had a conference with her angels before breakfast. Decided how to spend her day: Climb trees. Run fast. Pick flowers. Sing at the top of her lungs. Laugh. Do dishes tomorrow.
Don't you love my little niece? We alternatively bribed her with cupcakes and threatened with taking away the future cupcakes to get these pictures. But her mom needed pictures to frame for her new room, so it had to be done :)
