For the love of Elijah




Mimi loves Elijah. He is the son of dear friends of ours and she is absolutely captivated by him.

The other day, Mimi decided to rake a leaf pile for Elijah to jump in. She started raking in the morning. She raked for at least 2 hours . In the late afternoon, after other activities , she continued her mission.

I think in total she raked for 4 hours. All for the love of Elijah.

My mother and I stood in the window and watched the toiling, she was so committed and earnest in her quest for a giant leaf pile. We both thought of how lucky Elijah was to have such devotion.

We didn't see Elijah that weekend.
