I love that checking on #frogs is first, that #laughing at your own #jokes (& sharing them with #spiders) is included, and #cycling into town for #books & #IceCream is specified with your scarf flying behind you, and - oh so many other good things.

A lovely, *lovely* gentle essay, and perfect for my mood this time of year. 🥰

Check on the frogs in the pond, especially the one with the crooked leg, who can’t hop as far as the others. Ask them how they are doing, whether the dragonflies are plentiful this year, if any of them have turned into princes lately. They always croak at that, which is their way of laughing. […]
