Teenage poetry

Looking through old notebooks is the truly the best! Reading them allows you to reflect on how much you've grown as an individual. This here is something I wrote when I was in my mid teens (we're talking mid 90's : ))...

In Motion

To think of the wonders of the world

To fly high and not look back

To taste someone’s pain as if it was your own

Abilities too pure of a soul

To quench for what you have

To live and never die

To see and not go blind

Aspirations that we’ll ever have

You dare to see but yet behold

You take a breath but then you choke

You ask why but don’t pick up

Wasting my time is what you are

To listen is step one

To understand what’s hard to find

To search is a must

To lead and not follow

To sleep is a choice

To awake to the truth is irrevocable

To die is just dust

To live is to move on!

Angelina who??

Excuse me but what does a 3yr old know about beauty? A couple of weeks ago while giving thanks my 3yr old said, "thank you for Angelina!" Knowing there's a little Brazilian girl in his class named Angelina I followed by asking him if that's who he was referring to and he said yes. So I had to ask, "Do you like Angelina?" To my amazement something that was usually followed with a yes "he/she is my friend" was now followed by, "She's beautiful!"... He continued to mention her more often at home so like any curious mother would do I asked one of his teachers if he even spoke to Angelina during class. The teacher's response: "Who are you telling!! He has been like this since the first week of school. Angelina, Angelina... It's too much! Just today he was calling her not even 5min after waking up from nap time! I don't understand how he can know what he likes at such a young age!"... Perhaps that was more than I expected to hear. My baby in love?? No way! I'm not ready for this people! ha!!!

Needless to say the Angelina craze continues to date... I've lost my baby to Angelina!! Jen I now know how it feels!!!
(now that was too easy... for the 5 people reading this... I'M JUST KIDDING!!)

Happy belated Halloween y'all!
