Autumn always brings out the bittersweet in me. No other season provides such
compelling evidence that change is in the air. The cool breezes through the screen door and the vibrant
backdrop dramatically announce the end of one era and the beginning of another.
How many times have my kids bounded down those front steps
as the screen door closes, as only a screen door will. Excruciatingly slow at first, and then
a quick slam. If you’re not
careful, the cat will sneak out.
Autumn is indifferent as to whether you’re ready. It plows
forward and starts the process without looking back. As it should.
