writing music

Last night I went to eat with my sweet friend, Kandy.  When I got home Lexi was in bed.  I went in her room to say goodnight and she was still awake.  I gave her hugs and kisses and told her I would start her music over (she has 6 songs that I put on a CD that she listens to every single night).  She asked me to actually not start her music over because she paused it.  She paused the 5th song because she no longer likes the last two songs.  She asked, "Mom, why did you write that song?"  I replied, "I didn't write it honey, I just put it on the CD."  Lexi said, "Maybe you forgot.  Let me show you."  She got out of bed and opened her CD player.  The CD has my handwriting on it; therefore, she believes I "wrote" the music.  She sent me on my way with this, "Will you think of new lyrics and you can make a new bedtime CD tomorrow?"  My sweet, sweet girl thinks I write music.  She thinks I'm magical.  She loves me unconditionally with her whole being.  I love her more.

kindergarten boxcar parade

Well, everyone was healthy until Lexi got the flu and I got pneumonia.  Needless to say, it's been a rough week...BUT, we are better again and for the most part back to normal.  Jason, Lexi and I all worked together on this and we think it turned out great!  All the boxcars were unique and wonderful!  The parade was wonderful...it should have been televised!!

daddy/daughter dance

I have some catching up to do on the blog, but I wanted to write tonight while my feelings and emotions are raw... About a month ago we received an email about the daddy/daughter dance tonight.  Jason attached the flyer and forwarded it to me saying, "I have to work."  I frowned and moved on.  I didn't think much about it until the other day.  I had an "a-ha" moment and asked Jason if we could ask his dad so Lexi wouldn't miss out on the ball.  Jason called Kevin the next day and I received a text from Jason right after saying, "My dad would be happy to take Lexi."  I was delighted and Lexi was on cloud 9 when I told her Paw Paw wanted to take her to the ball (side note...we didn't tell Lexi about the ball because we didn't think she was going to be able to attend since Jason was out of town). The next day Jason left work early and met us at the mall for a little ball dress shopping.  Lexi danced around the dressing room in about 8 diff...
