Walking in the Night




Swimming with the Stars by Kirsten Borror

It has been a warm winter this year. I don't think I've ever come this far into December without all my winter clothes out of storage. After dinner my husband and I took a very long walk on the beach, talking and looking at constellations such as "Christmas Tree" and "Mitten"; did you know about those? If you stare at Orion with "Christmas eyes" you'll see what I mean. By Grace, there was also a long lasting shooting star. Just the fact that I had been looking at the right part of the sky when the star fell is a clear sign to me of good things to come. My husband asked me if I made a wish and I hadn't, so I will tonight before I sleep. That'll count won't it?
