An early Saturday Smile...

I love being up early on a weekend, Brendan still in bed, listening to the quiet sounds outside (before the traffic picks up and drowns out everything....next house will definitely NOT be on a busy street!!). Sometimes I sit here with my coffee and I hear a certain bird that reminds me of a bird I'd hear out at the cottage...I don't know why, I'm sure it's not a bird that was ONLY found on Wolverine Lake. But it just seems so, and it reminds me of being at the cottage. Just now I heard a sound...I don't know if it was a bird or something else...but it sounded for all the world like the creaking of that old swingset we had out there. You all know that distinctive sound! Before the days of huge jungle gyms...a simpler time, a simpler swingset. It made me feel very cozy, and it made me smile. Happy Saturday.
