Almost sunset

“Dinosaur Egg” My husband bought this for me at the American Museum of Natural History when we were in NYC a few weeks ago. It lights up and changes colors when you “whack” it. Kind of silly, but I was proud that I managed to get it a) in focus and b) as [...]

5. The way he looks at me when he KNOWS I’m watching.
6. That [...]
