These Eyes...

I am so grateful for all of the things my eyes have seen!


The Delaware River at sunset from Hawk’s Nest.


A momma bear stealing my trash cans to feed her cubs.


The Bay of Naples from the top of Mt. Vesuvius.


My children in my arms for the very first time.


Puget Sound from Mt. Rainier.


A fawn taking its first wobbly steps in my backyard.


A radio station studio packed with teenage kids.


A baby elephant climbing on top of me for a pet.


Henry slow-blinking and purring.


Morticia jumping over me as I sled down the hill.


A field of fresh untouched white snow.


A little bridge over a tiny creek in Bernardsville.


A wall of old-style candy jars at Carl’s.


The big blue whale at the Museum of Natural History in New York.


The Mona Lisa from eight feet away, as was intended.


Little kids playing soccer in the courtyard of the Louvre.


Little kids playing with a plastic ball in the rain in my Salvadoran neighborhood.


A bowl of green mango with lemon and salt.


My great-grandma handing me a plate of her delicious pupusas.


My uncle making eggs and chorizo in the middle of the night.


So many moments!


So many pictures!


My heart explodes with love and wonder...


At the kindness of God!
