Thursday Five...

1. When Shawn says to me:

"Thank you for saying yes."

2. I love it when Jensyn and her little friends hold hands. And today she was playing with Cooper from across the street and they were holding hands as they were walking around outside. It's just so sweet. I wonder if I used to do that.

Although earlier, she said to Cooper after I kissed her on the forehead "it's so embarassing (when she does that)with my friend over" and that wasn't so sweet.

3. Celebrity Apprentice finale tonight! I'm pulling for Trace.

4. There was snow on the ground this morning. I'm not thankful for that, but it was a good excuse to make my grandmother's rice pudding! It's such a comfort food. I wish I could put it's smell on my blog.

5. Sheye Rosemeyer's blog.

I read said blog yesterday. From beginning to end. She lost her 3-year-old daughter when she got into the car on a very hot day and couldn't get out. I was crying my eyes out as I read it. She is a beautiful writer and you can literally feel her pain. She says something really great about how we as mother's worry about doing everything perfect and how one day her daughter had on 7 skirts and she was worried about having to re-wash and re-iron them. And how all those things don't really matter. She has some great life-lessons in it and I really recommend reading it, although I also warn you about how heartwrenching it is.
Her actual address is sheyerosemeyer.blogspot.com. She is a photographer and so she has the most beautiful pictures as well. Yesterday I almost regreted reading it, but now I'm so glad because it really puts things in perspective.
