just had to share!

so i saw that i had a new e-mail. it was from my sister who i miss EVERY freakin' day, even though we only live 6 hours away and see each other a lot more than other people get to see their family.... but that's besides the point. we've been best friends and shared TONS of memories together. well for some reason today - even though today was a really good day; i got a lot done at work, had good time with jorel, he talked (kinda) to aunt jaana on the phone, and he's even already asleep "miracle" - i've had a bummed feeling about what, i don't really know... well this is the e-mail that i got from my sista luvs:

Sissy - whenever I hear this song, it brings me to tears. Anytime, anyplace. (I've even cried at 3 shows!) Thought you should know, since its YOU I'm thinkin' 'bout!!

Here are the lyrics too. Just love it.

Passing time with you in mind

It’s another quiet night

Feel the ground against my back

CountING stars against the black

Think about another day

Wishing I was far away

Wherever I dreamed I was

You were there with me

Sister, I hear you laugh

My heart fills full up

Keep me please

Sister, when you cry

I feel your tears

Running down my face

Sister, sister, keep me

I hope you always know it’s true

I would never make it through

You could make the sun go DARK

Just by walking away

Playing like we used to play

Like it would never go away

I feel you beating in my chest

I’d be dead without

Sister, I hear you laugh

My heart fills full up

Keep me please

Sister, when you cry

I feel your tears

Running down my face

Sister, sister, you keep me

I hope you always know it’s true

I would never make it through

You could make the heavens fall

Just by walking away

Sister, I hear you laugh

My heart fills full up

Keep me please

Sister, when you cry

I feel your tears

Running down my face

Sister, sister, you keep me

Love you.

Jaana

thanks sissy, even though i couldn't even read the whole e-mail before the tears started.... i think i made it through about 1 sentence, maybe! i just needed that today... we must have a twin connection or somthing :) it's really a neat feeling to know that someone cares about you as much as she cares for me, she's definitley my best friend! love you!

recent doings

just wanted to do an update before i go on trip this weekend - withOUT the kid which should be fun, but i will miss him...
when i pick him up out of his crib, he has to bring his pillow and ALL the blankets that were in there or around his sleeping quarters - that includes the floor or the laundry basket. what a turd...

i actually got together with some friends - my good friend from work, her hubby and his best friend, last week and we had a very informal double date - it was my first blind date and it went rather well, i would say. :) it was fun to just get out and have some adult conversations without the kiddos. the next night after our softball games, we went to their house and let our kids kinda play - i say kinda cause they really aren't all that interested in each other, but they're getting there.

friday after work my parents decided they wanted to go try bajio so they invited me and jorel along to join them and i've decided that jorel is a little tough to keep sitting at a table once in a while but especially when his sleep schedule is so off! man he was on one!! but we braved going to the homecoming football game anyway, which he did rather well at. we sat on the visitors side because it was WAY less crowded and he was able to dance around as he pleased. a fun tradition from hurricane high's homecomings is they light the H on the hill on fire and let it burn. when i was in high school, after the game we burned another H on the field and danced around it... and then all around town in a long snake. it was so much fun, but i don't know if they still do it. it sounds so ridiculously cheesy now! haha good times :)

can you believe how long is hair is already? if you can see it

the H on fire

the field - thought the colors turned out cool on this one

oh his beautiful eyes!
