<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">6.19.12</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">5:59 am</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Home. Solidly home. I got a letter from Carl yesterday that described how he took the time to write out all sorts of memories from Oxford, so he wouldn't forget.<br />So this morning, I'm doing that too. Not all necessarily good or proper memories, but memories. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Dinner on the Terrazza, that last week. Luke sang made up things on the guitar while we were waiting to pray, about Jack's black shoes and white socks, and Dave's white shoes and black socks. Finally when we realized we were only waiting for him (Luke), someone suggested that he sing the prayer. He did, and it was beautiful and very binding. It felt like we had formed something then. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Kate reading her fairytale Tuesday night. Hiding under her hair. She'd made banana bread, nutella cookies, and PB cookies. She read marvelously and we loved discovering people's characters: Federico the Magical Cobbler giving Hannah shoes and distracting her. Dov being sullen, giving neither advice nor encouragement - "For you, my only name is Death". Seeing "Hetha", "Clara", and "Audra" respond girlishly when their characters appeared. Schuyler trying to make llama eyes at Olivia when the Skylark appeared. Erin and Luke finally needing each other. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Several weeks ago, a few days after Heary, Erin hugging me tight in the studio and not letting me go. Saying, "I love you so much. I really, really love you." </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Getting her mullet trimmed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Emily exclaiming "Poop!" multiple times in the studio. Saying, "Kay-tee Joy" to ask me a question or just to say my name. Bailey getting blue and yellow ink in her hair. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Claire saying "Bedazzled" and loving gold leaf. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"Slippery slope"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"No pressure situation"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"Do do do do do"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"Go team!" </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"Friends".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Bringing gluten free cookies and a box of candy, rocks, wax, etc. to the Dolls'. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Singing in the Palazzo chapel for the last time. With Heather. On blankets, on the floor. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Eating Charlie's pizza for our last (Weds night) showing of <i>Fantastic Mr. Fox.</i> Leaving almost all my crust. Cornflake cookies. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Prof Doll's artist talk last Saturday morning. Talking about how tough some of the people he loved had been to him. "Doll, in the last four years you've amounted to nothing." Showing birthday/Christmas cards. Robin Hood, Princess, Narnia, Superheroes...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">On that last night at the Dolls', Chiara stepping in the soup before Heidi could stop her. Dave and me pushing Ronan back and forth across the floor in the cardboard box the shirts came in. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As I left the Terrazza after stargazing, hugging everyone and finally saying, "I love you". Pachebel's Canon playing from somewhere behind the convent, the most beautiful I've ever heard. Emily weeping, asking, "Can you <i>breathe</i>?" </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Olivia and me sharing those several times of truth. Olivia massaging Schuyler's head at the Dolls' that last night. Michela scratching his head at the airport the next day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I should wear blue more often. Gray more often. Pink more often. And not become a nun. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Gelato outside Wednesday afternoon, at Pasqualetti's by the Duomo. Prof Doll and Chiara, Anna Lardani and Maria, showing up. Jack wiping ice cream off my purse. Dave and Paul riding Prof Doll's bike across the piazza. Paul falling with style. The wind. Oh! It was windy. I was glad to be wearing Jasmine pants. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Dany just standing there and looking at me while I danced. Not joining. The older boys writing threats or just strange letters, "If you want to eat the chicken, come..." to drop in people's mailboxes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The old woman and her daughter. Her other daughter, who asked on our last week if we could give her Cambridge son English lessons. The note I left on the door before we left, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Pace & bene a il nostri prossimi. Grazie voi. </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Con affetto, </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Gli Studentesse Americane</span></i><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The very little girl who would go around the streets with her grandmother at night, look in shop windows, greet people. Both with kerchiefs on their heads. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Yellow flowers growing under the ledge at the park behind San Giovenale. Friday evening, picking some for Emily and me. Putting them in each other's hair. Mine I pinned to the 1 Cor. 13 banner, in Via Postierla. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Alyssa saying she's seen the hedgehog, and wishing she'd been Rachael for that moment. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am glad I am me. I wouldn't want to be anyone else. Thank You for that, Jesus.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">P.S. Silas: "They're leaving? Great. I don't want them to leave for 900 years."</span><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></i>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">And Back Again<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">It is almost time to go
back again. Wind’s shhh sound through pines is visible on a contoured field.
Light bends around blue mountains, their familiar shapes appearing now in
dreams, now in a chance pebble. This has become the textured boarder of our
life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">At the center of Dante’s
paradise there’s an ordered rose, complex, structured, beautiful, but we find
God in small, jumbled moments—in soccer and sweat and wordless songs. We
venture out like forest creatures into a new day or night without answers, but
with stories. We speak to each other and God simply with small words—sincerely.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">We feel the dust of our
mortality in Rome, in farming, in ancient tombs, our faces painted, in chapels,
domes, street corners, shop window glass. We find our shapes proportional in
space—a landscape, cathedral; we are small and grand. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Were we overawed by
trumpets and fire and gold—on nights of contagious laughter, on nights of
twisting pain? We grew together in cracked places. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">It is almost time to go
back again. Do not fear familiarity or strangeness, a place too small to
contain you. God is in the miniscule and vast. We carry a world within which
can never be lost. In a world of noise and traffic and half-price deals or
plate glass and death and fear, we hold together. We sit silent. We listen, and
once or twice or three or four or over and over, little by little, piano,
piano, we do right to one another. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Bell MT'; font-size: 19px;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

I wanted to wish everyone the best of luck in starting back to school. This summer flew by and it's so weird to be back in the land of School IDs, parking spots, and no sleep...and for me, fried chicken and sweet tea.<br />
I spent this summer with the sweetest kids, a 4 1/2 year old and a 6 year old who (thank goodness) loved art... so this is our printmaking adventure one day...<br />

I was very impressed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This summer I also painted everything known to creation... a mural in the church basement, a tree in my cousin Linnea's room and a giant baseball in my cousin Porter's room and many other things. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyway, best of luck to everyone. I keep saying things that only you all would understand and then getting funny looks. So sad. Miss you all.</div>
