Heavenly Waters

I need to be elsewhere.  I need to return here.  This is my heaven.  This is Farnsworth Reservoir.

Love You Dad

So much love

new what?

I should put up some new years post, but I'm not feeling it. I don't want to wax eloquent about the dawning of a new year, age, season, whatever. It's the same world as last week. I will therefor keep doing what I've been doing. enjoy life, be snarky about what I don't like, eat chocolate, love Loki, and generally burble about whatever I want. I only have like 4 followers so...*shrug* Here's to more of the same.

God Bless All Little Angels.

I have hugged and kissed and loved my little Boo so much today.  As a mother my heart breaks for those families who, this night, are living the nightmare of loosing their children.  Both those in the US and China.

Children are the Lord's most precious and valiant souls.  Boo teaches me this everyday.  She is so honest in her feelings and understandings.  She wants Amazing Grace or Holly and Ivy sung every night.   Every night at prayer time she has to thank Him for toys; her most prized things and that the fires don't hurt people (She's hung up on fire - we've seen so much of it this year).  She shouts with such pure joy "Jeusus' house" whenever we drive by a Temple.  When she sees a picture of Jesus and the scares in his hands she knows that kisses and a band-aid will make it all better.  So much love.

Pure joy.  Pure excitement.  The knowledge that the world is a place of adventure and magic...and good.  How I wish the world was as she knows it is.  As a mother I have come to understand the words of our Lord - become as a little child.  I wish I were so honest a woman and so loving.

Sleep well little angel.  You are my best and brightest gift from God.

Of Kids and Cats

Boo climeb up here and hung out just watching the world go by.  That's Tama's usual spot and I couldn't help but note the similarities between cats and kids.

Movie Theater

My littler girl had her first movie theater experiance this week.  She saw "wrek it Ralph" and "Rise of the Guardians".  Both are fantastic and entertaining films that will be bought in the future!

I didn't get any photos of that day (though Kirsten might have).  We had a great time and Boo was very good.  I'd forgotten how much I love movies and will be doing my best to take he to film as the years go on.

If you get a chance you should really see these two films.  Some really great storytelling.

Pumpkin Time

Carving a pumpkin all by herself. So grown up.
