king of the world

the first student i’ve had in 10 years that dressed up for the first day of school. he told me he only dressed up for special occasions. i love my job.

oh goodness

twilight. beautiful words. an even more beautiful love story. there’s a song off the movie soundtrack called ‘leave out all the rest’ by linkin park. i had to post the words. wow. indescribable. if you haven’t read it, you’re missing out…. the movie doesn’t count.

dreamed I was missing,
You were so scared.
But no one would listen
‘Cause no one else cared.

After my dreaming,
I woke with this fear.
What am I leaving,
When I am done here?

So if you’re asking me I want you to know;

When my time comes,
Forget the wrong that I’ve done.
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed.

And don’t resent me,
And when you’re feeling empty,
Keep me in your memory.
Leave out all the rest.
Leave out all the rest…

Don’t be afraid,
I’ve taken my beatings;
I’ve shared what I made.

I’m strong on the surface,
Not all the way through.
I’ve never been perfect,
But neither have you.

So if you’re asking me I want you to know;

When my time comes,
Forget the wrong that I’ve done.
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed.

Don’t resent me,
And when you’re feeling empty,
Keep me in your memory.
Leave out all the rest.
Leave out all the rest…

Forgetting;
All the hurt inside you’ve learned to hide so well.
Pretending;
Someone else can come and save me from myself.

I can’t be who you are…

When my time comes,

Leave out all the rest…

Forgetting;

I can’t be who you are,
I can’t be who you are.

It’s Time…..

It’s time for a fresh start, a new beginning…….. time to get back to words…

Here are some pics of the beach- it was a GREAT trip. Blane’s first official beach experience was awesome. He LOVED it … and Ashley and Tim’s wedding was beautiful…. the kind that makes you belive in love.

Let’s see….. I cleaned house, slept late,  spent some time with friends and family, took Blane to the park, learned how to use a nebulizer, and (saving the best for last), gave SPIDERMAN a bath! Fun times, eh?! Check out the pics below. Too funny not to share. We wish DADDY had been here to help us!
