Tori Amos has a new album out and it's my favorite ....maybe only second to Little Earthquakes. Anyway, here are the lyrics to Promise. A hauntingly beautiful duet she sings with Tash, her daughter. It's wonderful and it makes me cry. 

[Tori:] Promise not to say

[Tash:] that you told me so

Promise not to say

[Tori:] that I'm getting too old

[Tash:] Promise not to take

[Tori:] never take your phone

[Tash:] I mean take their word

[Tori:] you mean over yours?

what I need to know, will you

[Tash:] Be there

[Tori:] Where the sun shines

[Tash:] I will be there

[Tori:] you are the light

[Tash:] that follows you everywhere

[Tash and Tori:] look for my love

[Tash:] where the sun shines

I will be there

[Tori:] will you

[Tash:] Promise not to judge

[Tori:] to judge who you love

I don't know if I...

[Tash:] Yes, make that Promise

[Tori:] whatever it is

[Tash:] can you hear the truth

if they accuse me

[Tori:] you think I'll doubt you?

what I need to know, will you

[Tash:] be there

when I am all alone

[Tori:] you're not alone

[Tash:] when I am broken down

[Tori:] we all break down

[Tash:] when every door is closed

[Tori:] there is one more

[Tash:] will you look for me?

I will rescue you

Snow Day Continued

I think this kid has more fun than anyone else I know....

Ok - this is his serious-posing-for-a-photo-again-face.  But he really does have a great time...

 

And believe or not, this one had fun too...

 

 

More Snow!

Stella's Thoughts...

2/1/14
I wish I could be Daniel because God made it so the lions didn't hurt him.  I wish I could be around any animals I want without getting hurt.  That's my best dream.

2/2/14
S- I know who God sent to the world to protect us.
Me- Who
S- His Son.

2/3/14
S- I didn't get enough sleep last night because I had a meeting with God and then I prayed.
Me- How did your meeting with God go?
S-  Good!  I talked about things that I want and things that I need.
Me-  Oh yeah?
S-  Yeah.  I told him that I wished he didn't make college.  That kids should just stay in high school.  And, that I wished he made every day the weekend.  You know, like summer.


Stella and God are pret-ty tight these days.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MADDY!!!

What a year it's been!! I love you so much Pocahontas.  Hope 16 is all you dreamed of and MORE. 

Cheers to good friends, new goals, a license and a car (Lord help me), and loads of laughter.

I heard this song a while back and immediately thought of you.  Never feel bad for having fun in this life little girl.  Your intuition will serve you well. 

See next post for video... NOW GO LIVE GIRL.

Hailey shared this video on Facebook...and needless to say I cried the whole way through it.  This could easily be her speaking.
