I’ve been saying that “we got smiled on” it’s such a pretty day.

The sun is bright and the clouds the perfect puffy white/blueish colour. It’s hot!!
I mean, “hell is on the earth”, hot. So you sweat just moving through the house. The hurricane passed by us, at first it was suppose to hit Corpus then it shifted and came ashore in Galveston. So we have been smiled on a lot the past couple days.

So I went to my parents today, as I have been doing every day since they left. {My fathers brother, my Uncle T died on Monday, my parents left on Tuesday for Michigan. This has been extremely hard for our family for many reasons I don’t really want to talk about}

I went to my parents and I was sitting out on the patio swing enjoying the breeze and the shade. My sister walked down the walk to the patio and as she did she scared up all the butterflies.

It’s migration season and with the hurricane coming we’ve had more and more butterflies. This particular kind I don’t know the name of, but they are very small and of a light beige to pale yellow colour. There are so many of them, you can drive down the roads and see hundreds and hundreds. Well when my sister walked down the walk and scared the butterflies, there had to be a hundred of them flitting around the yard and me.

It reminded of a beautiful fairy world… One where peace and Serenity lived. I sat there swinging and watching them dance with one another. It looked like a celebration and in the middle of the yard flying toward me was a black butterfly.

I have never seen a black butterfly and I wanted to get a photo so bad… I left the camera at home, sighs…

They settled after a while and once in a while you’d see a couple of them going by. Then my bil walked through the yard and I was able to enjoy the wonderful feeling of freedom again. I had a very good day today
