Let's try this again =]

Today isn't so bad, I must have gotten some sleep - lol. As I was reading my past entries, I should apologize for all the doom and gloom that I've been sharing lately. What I haven't shared are those friends that have stuck by me, cemented a stronger friendship and bond. =] For these friends and my ever wonderful, patient hubby - I will always be grateful. I get to tell my hubby, thank you and I love him, everyday - maybe not enough but I'm trying to get better at that =]. So this is for my friends, who's comments are: Everyone changes, whether naturally or chemically, it's just a part of accepting who you are.

Serendipity

Through time and space and motion,

when chance turns to trust and care
though at times distant and crazy,
I know that you'll always be there.

Though we have differences in culture,
age, and circumstance
I can't help but sit and wonder,
was our meeting pure happenstance?

I don't believe in chances,
fate or circumstance.
Some people touch our lives,
while others pass as a glance.

I hold you as a treasure,
a dear friend, with a place in my heart
An accident I know it's isn't
for in my life you have a part.

Still...

It's been an interesting couple of weeks and today is no exception. So, this is about as good as it gets =].

How Do I Forget?

Souls are linked forever,
though friends sometimes depart.
Yet all is not forgotten,
they've left footprints on my heart.

I still reach out in worry,
and wonder how they are.
Yet my words will never reach them,
the distance grows too far.

I remember times of laughter,
smiles, pain, and tears.

Happy memories and thoughts,
that we'd be friends for years.

Yet life goes on without them,
only in my thoughts do they remain.
For their footprints are now embedded,
on my soul they've left a stain.

She's 8!!! Gah! Baptism Oct 11th, 1 pm

Scary enough that my baby is 8 yrs old and I weigh more now than I did when I was pregnant! AH! Hmm, maybe I'll just blame it on sitting full-time for work and the stress 3 kids bring - ha ha.

Okay, she actually turned 8 on Wednesday, the 10th but today was her High School Musical Party with her 4 friends. She opened her family presents on
Wednesday when we went out to eat as a family. She got lots of fun HSM stuff, Hanna Montana stuff, and Cheetah Girls. Yep, she is ALL girl. She wanted me to make her cake Zach Efron 0.0, erm no. As you can see, I won - no people faces, only animations.

We bought the DVD HSM2 game and she and her friends challenged each other - figured out 2 friends had never seen HSM2 so we stopped before there was a winner. Funny enough, once the girls left to go do other things, Dean and the boys restarted the game and played. It was a dead heat between all three with Benjamin finally winning and Anthony and Dean sitting 1 space away from the winners circle! It took them ALOT less time to play - hmm, we don't do Disney - ya think?
