Someone once said about their father:
"I'm not looking for you to accept me, I'm looking for you to love me."
I loved it and it's suck with me. I wish every father, every man that has ever hurt any woman or child would hear this, know this and do this. Know that love is the key to everything and with love comes acceptance and everything in between. Why can't we just all love, genuinely love one another? The world would be so different.
I thank God everyday for the loving and caring parents he has given to me and only pray that I can be the same with my children.

Loving Anna

Cousins are such beautiful things. I grew up with all of mine and have great memories of them. I'm so happy to see Alyssa loving her cousins as much as I did/do. This morning she awoke and came looking for Anna. She must've been dreaming about her because she was insistent that Anna was here and heart broken when I told her she wasn't and was actually at school.

Then later in the morning I was cleaning and caught Alyssa chanting "who's Anna". Confused, and thinking she was again asking "where's Anna", I told her she was at school and maybe we could see her soon. She continued and continued until I looked and saw she was holding a piece of artificial grass from my flower arrangement. It then dawned on me that she was praising God and chanting "Hosanna" in her own special way. She seriously thinks that the word Hosanna is asking who's Anna. "Thats silly" she said to herself. I love the childhood innocence that my children have and I hope they hold onto it for a long long time.

So I lost my xanga. It's gone forever and I don't think I'll bother starting another one. It was weird though. I only forgot my password so I had them send me a note to my email so I could retrieve it but I'd never receive the email. Yet I'd receive updates to my email, so it was on file. I emailed help told them the situation and they said they'd email me back. No go. So I'm boycotting xanga. I think I'll just stick with my blog!
