Needs

first light through our smudged window...

more order
less clutter
simple routines
less yelling
more kindness
roasted squash and sweet potato
plain grilled chicken
less sugar
tea
lots of ginger
gentle touch
messy hands
fewer questions
more real-time connections
hot, homemade vegetable broth 
softness
clean, ironed sheets
warm baths
less scrambling
more hugging
reading books aloud 
silence during the sunrise 

Sleep.
Lots and lots of sleep. 

Oh, and if Halloween could be delayed by about a week that would be super.
