Ivy sunning, originally uploaded by Kyra Savolainen.

Nanna to me (Ivy to you) came visiting mid-summer and we had the good fortune to enjoy some time in the late-day sun together.

Calendar loving

I just typed the word ‘calendar’ into a search box and felt a quick and sure and soft sensation of an awe like love for our language and all the things that it can do for us.

One and the other

Kyra — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 06:58:43 +0000

One says things so honestly, but they never equate to the songs she brings. One says she’s gotta heal good, real slow; the other claims they’re just wasting, let it go. One says she can’t walk away; the other, she implores, just take hold. One might have the other, but neither really have a thing.

Nanna quote

Kyra — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 06:26:08 +0000

[60 Minutes plays in my mother's living room]

Kyra: Nanna, is the tv loud enough for you?

Ivy: Oh, yes. It’s just that I don’t hear properly if there are two sound sources at once. [pause] So shut up. [Classic Ivy-Kyra laughter.]
