\"singledragonfly\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Today was a very busy Friday, and I have pushed back from my desk and am taking a few moments and thinking of Morgan. \u00a0Spring is here and the snow is all gone from the yard, not a single patch left, green will soon replace the many shades of brown that dominate now.<\/p>\n

Morgan loved the snow and told all her friends how much she loved falling snow.\u00a0 She loved to try to catch a flake on her tongue with a smile so big it was contagious to anyone who saw it.\u00a0 I like to think about her love for catching snowflakes on her tongue because it is something she and her father did often when she was young. \u00a0It’s hard to catch a snowflake on your tongue sometimes, and it became a little challenge she carried with her for the rest of her life.<\/p>\n

The simple things in life were all so Morgan, because it was all she really needed, the simple things.\u00a0 To paint, capture an image with a camera, walk her puppy to the park, sketch, knit, and crochet mittens for a gift – these were all the simple things she enjoyed.\u00a0 Camping with her friends\u2026 she had an old Landrover with over 300,000 miles and absolutely loved that no matter where the \u201cboys\u201d brought her she would never get stuck, and she would get to look back when they got stuck, and ask \u201cwhat\u2019s the matter?\u201d<\/p>\n

Steve and I were so enormously blessed to have Morgan in our lives for 20 years. It is too easy to forget the true joy she gave us, and I have to do a better job of remembering.<\/p>\n

Who knows what would have been her next adventure, but I bet it would have been something simple, and you know it would have been great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
