OH yeah.. uh huh! Sometimes I just want to break into the 'leap 2 3s' in the hallway too! (That's the basic Irish soft shoe move - LIFT up and kick your bottom! :)) SO much fun!
the First I have been blessed with 3 lovely children. The first two were pretty much the ideal children.... developed physically right on time or early, learned quickly, listened to direction, gave big hugs, behaved in church (this is important to my parents... :)), are loved by teachers, and shine brightly. And then (I remember actually saying this), I decided I wanted a little more chaos.... and along came my little teacher. Oh, I learned a LOT about being a Mom from my first two the Second kids; about self-sacrifice and complete dedication, but I didn't really learn about communication, unconditional love, and breaking through boundaries until I was challenged to do so. I snuggled with her more than I did the others. I felt the warmth in her heart more deeply. I wasn't as concerned with goals and bed times and the 'right' way to be a parent. I let go of the reins. What did this do for me? For one, it got me a second appoint...
Ok I have my photos uploaded from my 'hike' today. It's quite amazing how much BETTER these scenes look in the now. I actually thought of that whilst I was taking the pictures, but I had to take them anyway to see if they turned out. I must note at this time that the BEST photos I got were when I stopped on the side of the road when I saw an amazing view of the sun. I used to just note and drive by usually because it was not convenient to stop, but not this time... and I was rewarded... hopefully you will be too! So.. the theme music for this trip is: 'Out of the Woods' by Nickle Creek Hear it Here! Open it in another tab and listen as you read. It's quite nice.... good harmonies... LOVE harmony! Run round in my head for sure! I did have plenty of thoughts running through my monkey brain, but that's why you go into the woods... to quiet those... and it ALWAYS works (at least for me). I also had decided that I would not be...
I found another instrument that I want to play... the upright bass. I realized that I naturally find the bass line in the music I hear and enjoy that. So first I wanted to play the bass guitar and may still want to, but I think the upright bass is so cool looking... a huge violin. This is my desire after watching a couple of upright bass players last night at the Americana Showcase.... one male and one female. The woman had the BEST facial expressions. I told her that after the show and she laughed. She said she had no idea that she makes faces and that the lights are so bright that she just really can't see a thing so she just plays and that's what her face does. :) The other members of the band were great too! Two brothers sang and played guitars - one with a big 10 gallon cowboy hat and the other with some great wavy hair (James Dean style). They sounded and looked like they were brought to the stage directly after arriving from 1950 in a...
