one week ago

one week ago on Sunday
began our visit with the far aways...
and the ordinary...became extraordinary
in every single simple way
the holding of a glass in a little one's hand
the smile on a little face...with his favorite car of the day
the visit of a cousin..a miracle little babe
a quick little snuggle
a happy little family
the putting on of little boots for a little walk to the park
the pushing of a little stroller down the familiar little street
the little smile from his new little scooter
the playing on the slide...with the car of the day!
the brother and sister in the same little park where the littles always play
yet each climb to the top of the slide today is precious
perhaps it's because we are beneath the 500 year old city's walls
but every step is sacred...a precious little gift
and then a trip to Heidelberg to the papa's little 'beans of joy'
a little cappuccino
a proost
a little cup of strange change
the end of ordinary day for him
but an extraordinary day for us
a little train ride takes us home
as we each go our own separate ways
finally a little shut eye for two weary travelers
in our hotel inside the old city walls
thankful 
that tomorrow we will wake to another day 
on our precious little visit

...another day of being far away
