Simple

I stand by the door, taking a second to just breathe and observe.

Our whole family is here today to celebrate his fortieth birthday. It’s a milestone, considering the doctors had given him only a year to live – three years ago.

Jasper’s laugh reaches my ears, causing me to smile. He looks radiant – beautiful.

Walking up to him, I kiss the crown of his head.

He looks up, grinning. “Hey, babe. Sit with me?”

I comply. He puts an arm around my shoulders.

Glancing around again, I realize this is perfect.

Family.

Food.

Music.

As laid back as my husband.
