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.

Day 8

Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Day 12

Today I am thankful for Apple.  Apple makes great technology.  Jason has been in Canada for almost a week and because of our iPads we were able to facetime with him!  Lexi gets a little shy when the conversation begins, but she quickly warms up and loves to talk and kiss him.  We love and miss him so much when he is traveling.  We are looking forward to the summer when he is home with us for a couple of months straight!!

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!!
