From the Book - First edition.
Trying to light a candle in the wind
When people say "we have made it through worse before"
In the grocery store you are wrapped tightly onto my chest
Ode to the electric baby swing
For Willie Francis, the first known person to survive an execution by electric chair, 1946
The New York Times reports that 200 civilians have just been killed by U.S. military air strikes
This is an incomprehensive list of all the reasons I know I married the right person
And the world keeps spinning
At the Superdome after the storm has passed
It is Halloween night and you are dressed as a hot dog
When we took you to the beach for the first time
When we told you another baby was coming
The first time I saw my grandfather cry
After the storm they attempted to identify the bodies
For the doctor's records, follow-up
We see another school shooting on the news
This year was the first year I could not remember your voice
Ode to the double stroller
Zoom school with a toddler
In the ocean there is a small jellyfish
You ask me what sounds a giraffe makes
Yesterday afternoon I took you to the park
The most remarkable thing about dinosaurs
The andromeda galaxy is the closest galaxy to our Milky Way
Ode to those first fifteen minutes after the kids are finally asleep
When standing in a cabin at the Whitney plantation
