May Ran Away

So it's the end of the May
But May ran away
Seems like yesterday it was January
But May ran away
In truth the days flip faster each year
And May ran away
It's no surprise
May ran away
It's almost summer
May ran away
Spring was here for a split second
May ran away
Here's a picture to prove it



the blossoms lasted for a beautiful brief moment

May ran away

Mother

I have a fabulous, amazing, beautiful, and a whole host of other wonderful adjectives mother.
She has always been a blessing in my life. I love her very much.
I have been part of a mentoring program over the course of the this school year.
It reminds me of how much my mother taught me
It reminds me how much I took in that she wasn't purposely trying to teach
Being a mentor to young girls just shows how important a mother (and father) is.
But it also demonstrates that being a good parent is not a simple task
I am ladylike because of my mother
I have good manners beause of my mother
I can bake quite well because of my mother
I carry myself a certain way because of my mother
I probably got as much from the silent lessons as the spoken ones
But it makes me think what am I silently saying
I have no children yet
But I want them to hear peaceful vibrations, faithful footsteps, gentle gestures, and
I want my children to love me as I love my mother

Left

My left hand was involved in a battle today. It he nail in my ring finger broke in half. I have strong nails which is good. But when they go down they go down hard. My pinkie has broken really low a fee weeks back but I didn't trim down the rest But now what right hand is perfect and two short nails on the left.

Smooth

My breakfast today

Somedays

Somedays are wonderful
Somedays are easy
Somedays are front runners for the best day ever
And somedays I think wow is she fertile
Somedays I wonder when is my turn coming
Somedays I even shed tears
Somedays are easy
Somedays are not
And somedays I can go from high on life to weighted down just like that
Somedays are wonderful
But no day is completely horrible
Everyday I'm blessed
Everyday I'm loved

Winter Favorites

I know it's March and almost Spring but in Chicago Spring has not sprung
Last year this time it was 80 degrees several days in row
Not so in 2013, current temp 36 with a wintery mix of precipitation
Since it's still wintery here are my winter favorites (in no particular order)

why not

I had been thinking about this blog and the lack of attention it has received
why not start writing again
I had been thinking about starting another blog 
why not start
I had been thinking about all the thoughts I think 
why not start thinking out loud
