What a Wonderful World...

Several hummingbirds visit one of Mom's flower gardens every day. They will almost come close enough to land on Dad's hand!

I see trees of green, red roses too

I see them bloom for me and you

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white

The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces of people going by

I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do

They're really saying I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow

They'll learn much more than I'll never know

And I think to myself what a wonderful world

Yes, I think to myself what a wonderful world.
~Louis Armstrong

Seven years ago today, the world changed in a terribly tragic way. For thousands of innocent people, it was their last day on earth. And for thousands more, it was their last opportunity to say "I love you" to the family and friends who would not be returning at the end of the work day. It could have been any of us. Tell your family and friends you love them and appreciate them. Don't put it off...tomorrow never came for the 2,998 lives that were lost on 9/11/01.

Time spent with family & a good friend...

A friend and I went home for Labor Day weekend. We played Scrabble and Uno with Mom and Dad. I don't remember who won, but it was a lot of fun! When we weren't doing homework, we were catching up on sleep and eating Mom's yummy home-cooked meals. :)
