As I sit on our big leather sofa drinking cider watching Mike talk with his hands I want to close my eyes. Close them and listen, not just to the sound of my man's voice, but to the echo of his words as they bounce of the timpani. The big copper kettle stands waist high … Continue reading the timpani
