a few words about miss chelsea elizabeth...

she likes: making kites, dancing in the rain, adventures, little-while friends, letters, whole-leaf tea, crayons, bare feet, jumping in rivers/streams/creeks/waterfalls, language, catching the clock as it changes numbers, sleepovers, trains (big or small), cuddling & waking up before the sun rises, among other random things.

oregon-born, seattle-raised, bellingham-bred and franco-refined, she had moved back to the states from her affairs across the atlantic & now resides in columbia city with french husband & love of her life rémy. they spend most of their time taming the garden, taking care of their three chickens & two cats, and preparing the urban homestead for a new little chick of their own.

the (US) of a

so i bought a plane ticket from new york to seattle yesterday. for august 5.

i still have no idea how i will get to new york, but i`ll figure it out.

my emotions are out of whack right now. i am extactic to see people i have only been able to love from a distance for so long, but scared to love someone i care so deeply about from so far away for so long. i am extatic and then suddenly burst into tears. i`m scared. deeply scared. love is a frightening thing.

can i do this? i`m a strong girl and i know this, but am i strong enough to deal with more distance?

why do i do this? love people so intensely and then leave them? is this what i`ll do my whole life? i`m growing, i can feel it, and this time i know i`ll come back to once again wake up in his arms, but it doesn`t make leaving any easier.

and yes, we are excited you are home even though some of us should have seen you in France but didn't know about this blog until they got back to the states.
