The T-Word





A weird thing happened to me the other day.

It totally caught me off guard.

And I haven't been able to shake it since.

I was writing my blog about the lovely spring weather and I went to type "Beautiful enough to take two whiny …"

And the word just popped into my head.

I didn't mean for it to.

It was just there.

Staring me in the face.

Daring me to type it.

To make it real.

Instead, I shook my head and replaced it with a more fitting word. A word that doesn't cause me to hide in my closet with their baby albums clutched to my chest.

I know the time is coming. Heck, it might already be here.

But for now, and as long as I can manage to trick my brain, I'm going to hold out.

Cause once it starts, there's no going back.
