god's candy

i went to the 99 cent store www.99only.com and bought my produce for the week. they have such a great selection of fruit right now and it is only 99 cents. i arranged it in this beautiful bowl that my mother gave me for my birthday. our ceramics teacher Juliana made it. she is sooooo talented and i think she is great. anyway, when it put it all together, i thought wow! this is so pretty, healthy and from above.

bastille day

vive la france i say. here is france gall with my favorite french song....

my little mouse

we went to disneyland as part of our 4th of july weekend. whew.....not what it use to be - it was exhausting for me. no more fantasy land for this family, now it is star tours, space mountain, indiana jones, autopia, pirates of the caribean, big thunder rail road, the matterhorn, haunted mansion and then all over again and again and again. i did get him to stop for this photo......soooo cute!

happy birthday to me

hurray! its my birthday today and i am spending it with my family...best present ever.

the fruits of my labor

this is my favorite corner of my kitchen thus far. it has all my favorite things. i still have a ways to go, but its getting there.....hurray!

the moon walker is gone

i am very sadden over michael jackson. his music brings such fond memories for me. i found these lyrics of one of his songs which i found so telling.
he will be truly missed.

Hold Me
Like The River Jordan
And I Will Then Say To Thee

You Are My Friend

Carry Me

Like You Are My Brother

Love Me Like A Mother

Would You Be There?

Weary

Tell Me Will You Hold Me

When Wrong,

Will You Skold Me

When Lost

Will You Find Me?

But They Told Me

A Man Should Be Faithful

And Walk When Not Able

And Fight Till The End

But I'm Only Human

Everyone's Taking Control Of Me

Seems That The World's

Got A Role For Me

I'm So Confused

Will You Show To Me

You'll Be There For Me

And Care Enough To Bear Me

In Our Darkest Hour

In My Deepest Despair

Will You Still Care?

Will You Be There?

In My Trials

And My Tripulations

Through Our Doubts

And Frustrations

In My Violence

In My Turbulence

Through My Fear

And My Confessions

In My Anguish And My Pain

Through My Joy And My Sorrow

In The Promise Of Another Tomorrow

I'll Never Let You Part

For You're Always In My Heart.

Will You Be There - Michael Jackson

free like the wind

freedom is like riding my bike - i feel happiness in my heart and the wind blows in my face.

from my eight year old son.
