Tonight while walking on the beach viewing the Supermoon, Marshall and I decided where at the beach we are going to have Nolan's memorial service. One of the things Marshall had been so excited about buying Nolan had been a Moon - a Wall light that would change phases just like the real moon. We had also bought wall art for the nursery that read, "I see the Moon and the Moon sees me. God bless the moon and God bless me." It's ironic to me that tonight when the moon is at its closest to earth is when Marshall and I, who have been struggling to make any plans about Nolan's memorial service other than the date, have at last found some clarity.
While the Supermoon was mostly obscured by clouds, we did catch glimpses of it as it peeked in and out of the storm clouds. All around us in every direction of the sky were flashes of light. We wondered whether it was heat lightening the way it lit up the sky but Marshall concluded it was just God snapping his really big flash while he too took pictures of the Supermoon. As the storm clouds blew in closer to us, a calm blanketed the beach. I was surprised at the amount of people that came out to the beach to view the Supermoon and watch the unusually high tide roll in.
