8 Gold Medals is Nothin' to this Girl!

Hannah has become a little fish!  She swims underwater with her eyes open and a great big grin on her face!  The problem is that she is fearless!  You never know when or where she will jump in the water!  She seems to have mastered the technical head bob stroke.  I love it that she needs her goggles to swim underwater!

2 Year Olds Make Me Happy!

When she went to bed last night she told me to have sweet dreams, then she said "Mommy, I love you SOOO much!"

When she woke up this morning she said "Mommy, you are nice" and looked at me with her big brown eyes and sweet face and bedhead.  Then my heart melted into a big puddle of goo on the floor.

Good Thoughts for Nie Nie



This story of the Nielson's has been breaking my heart, slowly, for days. They are strangers to me, yet I think of her and her family several times a day. I worry about how her 4 children are doing. I want to help them. If you do too you can click on the link to the right and donate or go to here and here to bid in the auctions, or here to find other ways to help, or just send them your thoughts and prayers.

Things in My Brain

Today at work we were listening to the 80's channel on our Muzak. It was something a little different from the usual calm, soothing, mellow classical music that just becomes white noise. I was sitting in my office when I realized that I was singing. Not only was I singing, but I knew EVERY SINGLE WORD to the "rap" portion of Rapture. This made me wonder, why can I keep this in my brain but I have no idea what I ate for breakfast or where I put my keys? If only I could make more space up there and get rid of a few useless items I'm pretty sure that I could solve some world issues. Or at least find my keys.





About 2 minutes in you will find the rap before there was rap!
