U is for Up!

Me, alone. Life after loss.


Up at dawn, the dewey freshness of the hour, the morning rapture of the birds, the daily miracle of sunrise.... ~ Louisa May Alcott

When I came to the letter U, I had no idea what to write about. Then Up came into my mind and wouldn't leave. All  young ones have that desire to get up, higher up. Babies have it and puppies too. 

The above picture is from when Faith first got here, at about six or seven weeks old.

In the rest of them she's a little over two months. She was so determined and so happy when she finally made it. But then the worry set in. How am I getting down from here?

  

I guess this became a post about getting down as well as getting up. But she was so darned cute, I just couldn't resist.

I hope this cheered you UP! A little different from my posts about the past year. Up for me, I guess means a step in the right direction. My life is getting better, I have more ups than downs now, more laughs than tears. And I love my mornings, I'm up in the dark now, waiting for the sun to rise, for the day to begin. 

Human nature from hunters to farmers, get up and get going with your day.
