Post-Pandemic, Back to the office, I Find You

You live in my office

A woman with long hair is holding the hand of someone behind her, and pulling away. They are outside and snow is on the ground.

A table

Found in the back of Salvation Army

You sanded, stained my favorite burgundy

Spindles glued, a chair for each side

Professional

An invitation

You bought ivory card stock, used flowery springtime photo of our house

Celebrate her award! Cristine Wilson Medal for Equality and Justice

August 25, 2012, 5 PM

All welcome

A photo

Our daughter, blind, her wrist gripped tightly

You climbed the Glacier Park trail

Beaming, terror held only by the spectator

Proud mentor

Returning to my office after a year

I did not expect to find you there
