The sun of life has set too swiftly. The days are growing dim; this tiny person standing here is like a candle lit, the rush of light and heat shall make these last few hours special.

I haven't played the last couple of weeks, and feel as if I have missed out, but I'm back in the game! Here's what I say about said photo above:

It's one of those Unofficial, Unwritten rules among peoples everywhere. Whether rich or poor, young or old, north or south. If corn on the cob is not found within the vicinity of said gathering ...you cannot call it a summer bbq.

Sticky, sweet, in the hair,

But those kids just don’t give a care,

Bubblegum on their faces---

I’m so glad my kid wears braces (meaning she can’t have them anymore!!)

The person, who turned down this bed and straightened the sheets, just so Robin, someone could wrinkle it respectfully, gets paid far too little. Although obviously their paycheck is more than mine, because my beds NEVER EVER look like that!

This picture brings about moments of my childhood also. Images I have not thought of in years. Storybooks read by my Dad. Songs sung by my Mom. It brings about a complete feeling of peace. It’s like a big hug.

Our daughter just turned 12 last week. There are days I’d like to stop time and keep her as is. No more growing up. Sort of like this fountain. When I saw this photo, it’s what I first thought of.
