The seven year old is still angry at me for not celebrating Easter. Ugh. I shouldn't be so upset by an upset child... I suppose I can at least take some comfort in the fact that she feels she can be angry at me. I was my mother's support system and confidant at her age...

The fire of birds in
The world's turning wood,
For my sawn, splay sounds,)
