imaginary friend

*****

Arthur was my favorite TV show. Still is. I love that aardvark.

I remember that i always wanted to be exactly like D.W., because we were so much alike.

We both had older brothers.

We both liked pink.

We both had imaginary friends.

Nadine was hers.

I wish i could recall mine..

Sad day.

D.W. always seemed to have much more fun with Nadine tho.

i just got laughed at.

reminds me of the time when i followed my own blog.

oh wait.

i still do.

i like to think of myself as my own best friend.

probably how i looked..

* golden kisses from the meadow

Helianthus annuus is what smart people call them. I just call them sunflowers.

meadows filled with sunflowers, searching for the light of the sun

blooming

making me happy

[i love life]

 ***

the simple things mean the most,

so

STOP and SMELL the roses.

often

***

look around

realize how wonderful the earth is.

because

it is.

mountains.

i don't realize how much i love them

until they are no longer in sight.

a blue sky is never fully appreciated until the storm comes.

green grass is the softest on a summer day

brown grass just isn't the same..

even though we shouldn't judge it based on color

***

oh how i love my family

i miss family dinner together.

laughing, smiling, eating

i miss family scriptures study.

making faces, telling stories, loving every minute of it.

...wasn't so fond of waking up at 7 for family prayer

until i finally didn't have to. 

can't wait to do that again. :)

 i love you all. i think about you everyday.

 HMMM..

 How about we stop taking simple things for granted?

deal.

Peace & Love 

i just can't get enough.

happy. that is the word that i have been able to describe myself for quite some time. :) maybe it's a boy. maybe it's the awesome weather. maybe it's both. yeah, it's both :) but other things make me happy as well. hopefully they make you as happy as they make me.
