Bittersweet moments...

Last night we had the joyous experience of going to Ally's last voice recital... Kind of a bittersweet moment... after 22 years (including Sarah) of lessons, sporting events, school programs, recitals, shows... Of course it won't ever end... but my time as the mother who reminds her child that she needs to be somewhere in 5 minutes or she needs to turn off the TV and study is coming to an end. Anyway... she chose to sing 'For Good' from Wicked... many tears were shed, but she made it through... and the rest of us barely did. Soo sad her mother thought she was recording the whole thing... I swear the little red light had blinked... :-( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQJaZO2nfGg I'm limited Just look at me - I'm limited And just look at you You can do all I couldn't do So now it's up to you For both of us - now it's up to you... I've heard it said That people come into our lives for a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are...

What a wonderful way to see someone... =)

My 'Rocky' song...

... you know, when he climbs those steps running and   raises his arms and dances around at the top. And of course, that's what this song's about... but the way it's sung really gets me, too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlMBcTGJ4YM Ev’ryone deserves the chance to FLY! And if I’m flying solo At least I’m flying free To those who’d ground me Take a message back from me Tell them how I am Defying gravity! I’m flying high! Defying gravity! And one of my fave lines (about 4:40) ".... and if you care to find me LOOK to the western sky~!!"
