Thomas says: “This is not my planet. I am from Jupiter. When I grow up I’m going to go into space and go back to Jupiter!” Plus, he’s taking Lillian with him! They are now having a conversation about what they will pack for the journey! It’s times like this I’m so grateful for these two and their imaginations!”

4:15 pm this afternoon I introduced Lillian to Evernote. I created her very own Lillian notebook within my account as you have to be 13 to register. By bed time tonight she had created several notes including one note with a photo embedded, one note with audio and one note with a webcam photo! Geez! I haven’t even used any of those features and I’ve been using it longer! Go Lillian Go!!

I choose 2 have sense of humor bout Lillian’s speech issue. This am she asked me how 2 spell a word. Now that’s Funny when you are being asked 2 spell a word that you can’t even understand when it’s being pronounced. Cool thing about her Dynavox – she can type in a letter or 2 & it’ll give suggestions of what word begins w/ those letters. The word? Illustrations! (She was writing a book this am titled “Magic Facts” & she’s also the illustrator of the book!!) She cracks me up!

Homemade spa day today. Thomas and Lillian are hanging out with Ms. Kat and I’m having the afternoon to myself. Haven’t experienced an away from home spa day since October 2002. Just made an appointment for next Thursday to be pampered to nirvana. I should be good for another 13 years! HA! It wasn’t easy to make the phone call to schedule. I first had to connect with some unlovely feelings that I was doing something wrong or bad. Then I was able to call with gratitude and peace. Wahoo!! Very much looking forward to it. xoxo

Driving to family swim night this past Friday night, Thomas says to me, “I’ve got the Happy Virus”. Then he tells me what that is .. something like you are just so happy with all the stuff that’s going on ….
Well, y’all know me! I’m like, What a phrase you just coined Thomas!! That’s it! Team TLC is out to infect as many people as we can with the Happy Virus … watch out y’all. I hear you can get an immunization for it at your local pharmacy; but they are running low … we may just get to you with our Happy Virus before you can get immunized!!

Thomas told me this morning that he wants to be a teacher. I asked him why and he said Mrs. Nicole always looks like she’s having so much fun (his teacher). And she’s friends with all of the students. This touched my heart so … almost made my eyes sweat! She IS a fabulous teacher indeed and he is right on … She is having the time of her life spending her days with these kids …. She shines and it’s obvious she is so happy! Both Thomas and Lillian have had the experience of having the opposite kind of person as a teacher and I am so very blessed and grateful for Mrs. Nicole and her beautiful light! xoxo

At 11:07 a.m. this morning I received a blessing via an email. An email that was all about life loving me. I created Turning Views Inc in 2008 and have done much through it. Last year I was not able to renew TVI due to lack of funds. At the time, it caused me great pain to let the deadline approach and slip by. Yet, I decided to connect with the emotions this brought up and with a peaceful heart released it … knowing that if I was able to renew at a later date, I could, and if I didn’t, that all was happening perfectly as it should.
This morning at 11:07 I received this email. It’s legitimate and from someone whom has been a dear friend to me in the past. TVI is sold now. I will connect with these sad feelings I’m having for fully releasing what I created and know that once I’ve connected with them and let go, I’m gonna be wowed with what’s up for me next. Now. With a grateful heart, I shall take Team TLC out to dinner to celebrate. Life loves me … and life loves you. xoxo
Here’s to creating and letting go of those creations. Making way for new creations. Nothing ever really ends. It just changes form. xoxo
Celebratory walk around the lake after the celebration dinner. So beautiful … xoxo
