My eyes have been green all weekend. I think it started on Thursday night when I was at Brandon's graduation from sheriff cadet training. It was the second time I had the opportunity to spend with "Granny," his grandmother. She is such a riot to me. The words that come out of her mouth I could hear them coming out of my own later in life. It is very touching to me that I was asked to attend the graduation. While the ceremony was much like any commencement --not able to move along fast enough--there was one point when the Sheriff was speaking about the responsibilities that come along with becoming deputies. Integrity. Honor. The keys to positions of authority and why we as a society do or don't trust them.
I noticed my green eyes yesterday while Joseph and I were in one of our uniquely calibrated wavelengths together. We were listening to music, singing, dancing, acting out. At one point the girls came out and joined us to dance. I looked in the mirror and was surprised to see my eyes this color because usually I only notice the color change in the mirror after I cry but I hadn't cried. I made a remark to Joseph and carried on with our fun.
The color is the same... but I had my cry tonight so no real surprise.

Brick by brick towers so tall
Soon I won't see you at all
Until the concrete angel falls"
