Free Image Tuesday...Errr...Wednesday;)...

 Why so sad Little Sweetie?  

 Did Momma make you wear a stinky old dress instead of overalls?  

 Did she make you wash the dirt out from under your finger nails and hogtie you to a chair while she used the curling irons? 

That's ok.  I love you anyway:)

Free Image Tuesday...Sweet Siblings...

They are so sweet that I just want to pinch those cheeks!!!  He seems so protective of her.  I am an only child and have always wondered what it would have been like to have a brother or a sister.  Then, on rainy days, when both the boys are stuck inside arguing over one thing or another I think maybe it wasn't so bad;)

Moon....

"Moon"

In love with my new tripod!!!  I have never been able to take a clear moon pic:)  New toys are fun!!!

This is my first weeks assignment for Traci's class.  It is fun playing with the paint and ink, but I am too fearful of "messing up" and making a mark I am unhappy with on the paper.  I need to trust and do and say "SO WHAT"!!!!!!!!  Working on it:)

Wait 
by Alexi Murdoch (click title to listen)

Lyrics

Feel I'm on the verge of some great trail
Where I'm finally in my place
But I'm fumbling still full proof
And it's cluttering my space
Casting shadows on my face

Though I have the strength to move a hill
I can hardly leave my room
So I sit perfectly still
And I'll listen for a tune
While my mind is on the moon

And If I stumble, and if I stall
And if I slip now, and if I should fall
And if I can't be, all that I could be
Will you? Will you wait for me?

Cause everywhere I seem to be
I am only passing through
I dream these days are about the sea
I always wake up feeling blue
Wishing I could dream of you

So if I stumble, and If I fall
And if I slip now, and loose it all
And if I can't be, all that I could be
Will you? Will you wait for me?

And wait for me
And wait for me
And wait for me
Won't you wait for me?

And wait for me
Please wait for me
Please wait for me
Won't wait for me

And wait for me
Please wait for me
Please wait for me

~Mark Twain


“Live as if you were living for the second time and had acted as wrongly the first time as you are about to act now.”
