We celebrated thanksgiving with our friends Dan, Hillary and Felix and some of their family. It was very charming. The next day we set up the tree which Unity was quite excited about.
Covered in glitter and crumbs. Waking up to maracas and fairy wings. Pockets full of rubber bands and dandelions. Buried under book piles. Dirty hands with homemade kombucha. Coffee in the rain. Waiting for that sacred scrap of silence.

Unity -isms
The scene: all four of us are lounging around. Chris, Polly and Unity are each looking at their own book.
Unity: Brixton doesn't have a book. His hands are too small.

Unity: Everyone makes mistakes.
Chris: That's right.
Unity: Brixton makes mistakes.
Polly: Well honey, he's a baby. He doesn't make mistakes yet.
Unity: I will teach him to make mistakes.
I'm sure you will buddy. Just don't tell us about all of them.
