Sonrisa

There has been a lot of smiling this summer… 

We smile as we pedal down neighborhood roads

while we sing, "Sugar sugar, ah, honey honey…"

and while we sit on the curb eating ice cream cones. 

We are smiling as we watch Gilmore Girls 

in the back porch with the twinkle lights on.

We have smiles on our lips while we drink coffee 

and talk about real life.

We smiled while we caught up on life happenings 

and laughed until we cried like always.

We are smiling as we play catch in the driveway 

and cheer from the front porch.

Even Hanalei is all smiles at my 

27th birthday baseball game at the park.

We smile while we tread water at the pool,

roast marshmallows over the fire,

and play games way too late into the night.  

We are smiling as we sit in "our spot" at Coffea

and talk for as long as we possibly can.  

We smiled on an oddly cool walk to meet Kaia for lunch.  

There was SO MUCH smiling as we laid on our backs

in the grass two nights in a row 

enjoying friendship and fireworks.  

We smile as we enjoy our walks to the

Saturday morning Farmers Market 

and chase each other through the playground.  

What is one thing that has made you smile lately?
