Monday

I found a straw hat in my bedroom today. I put it on and decided that when I am forty and wear pink, since I wouldn't dream of pink today, I will also wear straw hats in my garden. There is something a bit English about wearing a straw hat while gardening - though I tend to think that just from watching too much BBC productions. Die hard.

Today is Danny's 19th birthday, tomorrow is Aaron's fifth, the next is mom's, hmmm, 45th? We will celebrate them all on the fourth and have an american flag cake decorated with strawberries and blueberries and homemade whipped topping. This has been a tradition for as long as I could bake on my own.


THought of the day? A few actually.

I went into town tonight to buy a kiddie pool for the little boys and took Benji with me. People go wild, I mean wild, every person who feels at will wants to touch his hands, his face, his legs and say the same thing that everyone else says 'he's so SMALL! How old is he? He's such a cutie.' All told, yes he is small, in fact he has only gained one pound in the past four months, he still wears 6-9 month clothing. Yes he is a year and a half. Yes he certainly is a cutie. Now get your hands off him!!!!

No, I dont say that. ha hah

I just think it.

I got an email today from Joe. He asked if I had any epiphanies recently. I had to look Epiphany up.

e·piph·a·ny Pronunciation Key (-pf-n)
n. pl. e·piph·a·nies
Epiphany
A Christian feast celebrating the manifestation of the divine nature of Jesus to the Gentiles as represented by the Magi.
January 6, on which this feast is traditionally observed.
A revelatory manifestation of a divine being.

A sudden manifestation of the essence or meaning of something.
A comprehension or perception of reality by means of a sudden intuitive realization: “I experienced an epiphany, a spiritual flash that would change the way I viewed myself” (Frank Maier).

I have to say, this is quite a word. I like it and I do believe I'll use it again.

No, Joe, sorry no epiphanies recently. But I did eat a really great strawberry a few minutes ago.
