stretch...

every january
disney on ice
comes to town...
.
and my sweet sarah
declares she is taking me
for my birthday
this year we lucked out
with front row seats
toy story 3
was the feature
i had forgotten about
the pretty purple octopus
until he almost
landed in our laps
it brought back memories
of a letter i had written
describing the feeling of being
strangled by the tentacles
of such a creature
what a difference
one year makes
today i was thinking
i'm so blessed
to have found so many
loving and accepting
arms
that have wrapped around
me just like
stretch with his smiling face
and that is a wonderful
birthday feeling
