    So They Say…

    18

    So they say that you are now an adult
    Well tell it to these eyes that fill up with tears every time you say goodbye for they can only see the sweet babies God graced me with early that blessed morning.

    And tell it to these hands that though they have aged over the years still know the feeling of holding you in my arms rocking, rocking.

    And finally tell it to this heart that will forever have a place for you, shut off from the clanging world always chattering and squawking and saying, constantly saying.

    Well let them say. For it will beat forever and say baby, my baby,  you are loved no matter what they say.

    Happy Birthday my Dear Twins remember 18 is what they say but Love is what I feel.

    Love Forever,
    Mom

    So What You Watching?

    I have not written about what I’ve been watching on TV in quite a while. Guess I’m still out of sorts with Oprah leaving and now all my beloved soaps saying goodbye and honestly though I still watch The Housewives I’m not as into then as I used to be. It all just feels blah or maybe it’s just me. I don’t know.
    I have to say I am still enjoying Top Chef. That Beverly cracks me up. And I thought I was a crier. Poor hot mess.

    I am exciting about the return of Project Runway with the All Stars tonight. Will you be watching?

    What have you been watching this season? Please share?

    Little Problems

    May we all have days like this. Hoping to get some good writing done today. I’ve been off writing for the past 2 weeks with the twins at home and Christmas but now I must get back on track. They are still here, but the tree is down and I must close myself off for a few hours a day to fall into the story again. May this be the only obstacle of the day.

    Goodbye 2011

    Just a sayonara 2011.
    I’m so grateful to all of you who have suck by me over here at ye old blog and thank you to those who now also visit me at my tumblr Becoming Tru Me. You old and new friends who stop by and comment really make my day.

    When I started this blog 4 years ago it was to get my name out there and establish a following for when that big book deal rolls on in. Well, the big deal hasn’t rolled in but I have gained so much with the wonderful connections I have made with so many of you. I feel so blessed by your always encouraging words to keep going and hang in there. You will never know how much that means to me. It what keeps me coming back here even it’s just to post a picture, say hi I’m still here or to say what Jack is up to (probably no good LOL).
    Thank you so much. When I’m not here and putting my butt in the chair hands on the keyboard to give writing another try it’s a wonderful feeling knowing I have the support of so many wonderful cyber friends at under my wings. I wish you all so much happiness in all you do in the New Year ahead. Know that I’m rooting for all of you too.

     

    With love,
    Kwana
