Love Letters to the Universe

"Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe"

I heard "Across the Universe" today at Starbucks & was reminded of our afternoon on Good Friday.  Dear friend Carrie and her lovely family invited Josie & I to join them on a really beautiful adventure. On Good Friday, we hit Ludlow Ave armed with dozens of little "love letters" to leave in secret places for strangers to find while going about their daily routine - in ATMs, parking meters, water fountains, flower boxes, window sills, park benches, blooming flowers, and just about anything else we could find. The letters were hand-written by the kids and contained positive and inspirational messages sure to brighten even the darkest of days.  Here are some of my favorite pictures from our afternoon spreading a little love, doing a project that was made even more special by Carrie saying it was dedicated to our little Camille.
