Chain Mail With Meaning

From Mer



TO MY CHILD

Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play.

Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together.


Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles.

Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one if he comes by.

Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second-guess every decision I have made where you are concerned.

Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them.

Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys.


Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you.

Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry.

Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.

Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.

Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God has given me the greatest gift even given.


I will think about the mothers and fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore.

And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing, except one more day.............




On a happier note.. the fireworks look beautiful tonight.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY EVERYONE!!!


With love...

Breaths of Stale Air

Still not too talkative. Not at all. It's actually quite painful to talk. I tried. I'll try again.
Give me a minute to catch my breath.

See the Full Buck Moon
The moon will be full July 2 at 7:09AM ET. This moon got its name because July is when buck deer start growing antlers.

My parent's came home Sunday. It's a lot more stressful now.. but eh, good to have them home safe. They brought me some maple candies and Katie got some 'Life is Good' shirts. Mom also bought Tom an EMT bear. She does that... yeah. It's cute...


To clear up a small amount of ambiguity, for fear of incorrect thoughts, the someones mentioned in the previous post are school kids. Yeah...


I'm at about 3891 words right now... Let's see.. need to write my conclusion and abstract. Gotta fix two accounts in my bib... and.. hmm... oh darn, gotta do those note cards. Anything else? I need to do some major revisions.. but at least I have a copy or whatever.

I really like the FAU library and this class. It was so great to hang with friends and just walk around and go at my own pace and do whatever I felt like doing whenever I felt like doing it. Wish I could've hung with other kids more though, ones that didn't have history and didn't hang in the library. :(

Today made me happy. It rained today. ^___^ Jeanna and I were crossing from Algonquin to the library.. and it starts to pour! My bag fell apart and all my [11] books fell out! It was so bad... but she helped me carry them over to the library. Wow we were in hysterics.. it was so funny! We were so soaked within 2 minutes. Once I got all of my books dried and set up, I went back out to play in the rain. Natalia, Kim, and Shelly came out too and we danced in the rain then wandered back to the computer lab to... ask some questions about MLA... *cough*walkintherain*cough*

I jumped in my first puddle!!!!!! ^________________^


I had so much fun! For some reason the rain just made me so happy today.


My paper sucks though. Majorly.


There are no more band practices for me... That's kinda not good... Though the next 3 Mondays we wouldn't have it anyway...


I haven't been very talkative to anyone really... Just don't feel like holding a conversation.
Sorry for the silence.


With love....

Has anyone done any of the homework? Worked on the College Journal? Read Metamorphosis? Read Aunt Julia? Meep...

Everything is looking up. I love how things are going right now. All in one day, everything picks up. I turn 18, find out will and i definately are rooming together, and realize that im starting to play hockey alot better (and to be recognized for it). New RUSH cd tomorrow, new RUSH concert in exactly one month. UCF orientation, hanging out with my cousin around orlando this weekend, and college in less than two months. I'm damn ready for this. I can't wait til I finally have time to start saving for some recording gear, im ready to start my first cd. I'm ready to sleep.

Never look back.

Sorry I haven't been updating much.

I've tried to work while at that class.. and when I get home I'm just so exhausted. Haven't been able to do a thing when I get home.


Kai-chan came back a few days ago. We had a very interesting conversation.. yeah. Our Gundam Wing rp has started up again. I'm really happy about that.

I got an email reply from my friend in Iraq. I'm ecstatic about that! He's alive and doing well more or less. Didn't tell me much though.


I feel... like I'm losing somethings. Or several someones. I... don't like it.
Are people mad at me again? Did I do more things people won't tell me about?

It feels like I've already lost someone very close to me. I pray I'm wrong. I pray deep down he's still a good friend of mine and only acts like he does because of the people he hangs out with now... Please..


My paper is coming along slowly. I was happy I could bring in a whole text book that was helpful to Richard.
I'm very happy about that buffet place we ate at yesterday. All of us needs to go eat there. It was so great! Hopefully there won't be so many of those little kids next time..


It's very cool to have my parent's away. Things are going fine and I'm enjoying all the peace.

Katie's bored out of her mind. It's quite funny to come home and ask her what random things she did when she got bored enough.


Much love..
