- Moonflowers are your favorite bloom.
- When you see a painting of a moon-gazing hare, you whisper, “Me too.”
- You nibble your sandwiches into crescent shapes.
- You call glitter “stardust” instead of pixie dust.
- You know the name of every full moon (Wolf Moon, Snow Moon, Worm Moon, Pink Moon…)
- Sometimes you whisper the names to help yourself fall asleep.
- The full moon’s gravity pulls at you like the tides.
- You plan your garden by what looks good in moonlight.
- Winter is your favorite season … the better to see the moon’s face shine through the bare branches.
- You don’t understand why no one else is awake at four in the morning.
- Your favorite jewelry is all moonstone.
- You know which hills near your home are the best to watch the moon rise.
- You recognize all the faces the moon can wear.
