sunlight crashes
through bleak
winter
awakens minds
awakens mine
ultraviolet bliss
burns my skin
tickles my soul
awakens my deep
cold thoughts
black fades
into gray
and the sun
polishes silver
into the breeze
=>
reawakening

You’d probably have to read the previous post to put this one in its fullest context…
Absolutely gorgeous pictures! Congrats on the new baby!
@Jenny (not Jennifer) – 1) i love seeing a “nash” post here who is from Florida and completely unrelated. beautiful name, BTW.
2) i think i also need to link to your other blog here: http://neuroclassymom.blogspot.com/
and say that i like it mucho. i have been telling erin how funny it is and how much she’d appreciate it, but being 8/9 months pregnant and preparing to leave her biology and zoology students to a substitute hasn’t left her much time in the blogosphere.
3) thank you.
Absolutely beautiful Sean…
Thank you.
Wonderful words, wonderful family.
I know you’ll be (um, well, children are present so I’ll drop the adjective) busy, but I hope you’ll still have time to continue your magic here.
Thanks.
@wifely beast – stop calling me “sean” online. you don’t call me that in person… weirdo.
@Michael – i love adjectives. (especially that type. at least.) your kind words inspire me more than you know. tons more later. promise.
Congrats on the addition! Hope the holidays treat you well.
@Tyson Evans, – thanks much. I certainly hope things are stellar with the new job, etc. in the Big Apple! Sorry to have missed you when you last rolled through town, but as you can see… business had overcome me at that point!
Look forward to catching up sometime, and nearing about the NY Times.
This is my first time in “Nashworld”
Always knew you lived in your own little world, this just confirms my theory
@Beasley, – Ha! I assume this is Daniel. True? If so- you might know enough to say that… otherwise… ??
Living in your own world has it’s advantages! No one knows if your coming or going.
I’ll be in your neck of the woods on Thursday. We have a dual with you guys. (Benton) I don’t know if your still helping out with Benton, it’s been awhile.
@Daniel Beasley, -Hey hey… not technically “helping out” this year. (thought I’d make it to 20 years coaching- seems like i just fell short) Although I AM still a massive fan, and of course I will be there. See you there.
Are you still teaching biology/life science, I assume? Make sure you check out the site we have here: http://nashworld.edublogs.org/2009/01/06/connecting-biology-educators-worldwide/ and let your colleagues there know. This has the potential to be a fantastic resource for all of us!
