There's so much I could have been writing about. My daughter finished her 6 performances of Once Upon A Mattress, what a gorgeous production that is. And the director loves her, wants to make sure she is signing up for 1st semester next year. She is also going to sing John Mayer's Daughters in church tomorrow. After which I am getting of of there, its the minister's last day and I think I'll take early exit out the side door. Then we're going to have a Mother-Daughter day. That was her wish. I think we'll go to the Market Place and window shop - she thought that would be fun.
And so this morning as I was just playing this CD, when it got to this particular song, I heard the lyrics differently this time, I guess, and just burst into tears. I miss MY MOTHER so much.

I put a photograph inside the frame of my heart
Forever you'll be the better half watching the rest fall apart
Nothing's goin' change the look on my face
You'll see me spending the rest of my days
Waving tomorrow goodbye, a tear in my eye
Nothing can bring back that feeling
Go on fade out the stars in my sky, I'm wondering why
No one can save me, the same way you do
I put a broken dream next to the memory of you
And forever you'll be together till fate brings you somebody new
And I can't erase the look on your face
Guess I'll be spending the rest of my days
Waving tomorrow goodbye, a tear in my eye
Nothing can bring back that feeling
Go on fade out the stars in my sky, I'm wondering why
No one can save me, the same way you do
Waving tomorrow goodbye, a tear in my eye
Nothing can bring back that feeling, oh no
Fade out the stars in my sky, I'm wondering why
No one can save me, the same way you do
Little light, little light
Oh, we're gonna make it right
Little light, little light
You know we're gonna make it right

Happy Day, I thought you'd like this image (but I know most links don't work here...)

And there are new(ish) pictures on my flickr page.
I JUST got my new computer and the high speed connected, so I wasn't able to use a computer since that last post on the 8th. Thanks for the Mother's Day wishes. Your sister and I had a great day, We went to the Market Place and it was really fun, we had to keep calling and rescheduling our pick-up time. We ended the day eating a huge lilikoi and raspberry shave ice (but didn't they used to be like a dollar?, this one was $4)
I love that picture, I copied the link and went to it. I saved it, maybe I'll use it as my desk top, it is prettier than the drawing of a lotus flower I have now. I just hope I can remember where I saved the picture to, I'm haven't gotten this thing figured out at all, its really very different, but its so modern and fast!
