Life this summer so far has just been a whirlwind
and it seems and I had to take a little break from blogging.
and it seems and I had to take a little break from blogging.
Just got back last week from a visit with my
daughter and family in Pennsylvania.
Hubby couldn't go this time so......
I made the 9 hour drive, one way all by my lonesome.
Giving out those grandma kisses and hugs and
spending time with my oldest daughter
is always a heart's treat for me and
worth the long trip.
I couldn't believe how well these two sweeties
could sing the song
"The Lion Sleeps Tonight".
It was adorable
and on key and even some harmony going on.
They especially liked and sang boldly the
" Ee-e-e-um-um-a-weh"
part of the song.
...then I saw why they are so good at singing this song
with the motions and all.....
MOMMY
sings and dances it with them.
We had a real live music jam session
at the breakfast table just before I had to leave for home.
I played the drums via the table tapping!
Smiled all the way back home
every time I remembered this music session
and even still catch myself humming this tune.
It means so much to me
how some of you have stopped by to tell me
that you've missed me.
Thank Y♥U
Being told you are missed
is like getting a beautifully hand written
"just for me" sweet note in the mail with a hug attached.
I cherish you ~ I hope you know that.
I love the real YOU

I'm learning that the best ME
that I can be
is "ME"
and I hope that
YOU are learning the best YOU
that you can be is YOU.
I love the real YOU
On Becoming Real from the book
"The Velveteen Rabbit"

"The Velveteen Rabbit"

"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real, you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
