People and Birds

Thoughts just come to me at night! Do you ever wonder why people feel so attached to birds? After all, science tells us they have small brains. A bird comes near your window for weeks at a time. After a while you feel connected to the bird. Some people even think it may be a sign from up above.
After a month or so, the bird decides to take it a bit further and runs into the window and dies. You feel such a loss! You feel so bad that this relationship has ended. In reality, the bird probably has been attracted to some light off your window or a reflection of himself.

 In the end, you learn never to have a relationship with something or someone who has a brain smaller than yours. Most of all, never give your whole heart to someone who has a small heart and cannot give back to you what your whole heart can give.

Poetry of the week

There once was a lady who lived at the beach,
She met a man that liked to teach,
He went out on a limb,
and asked her to marry him,
and now they both are happy as a peach.

Ornamental christmas

Family traditions, keeping stress free and having the christmas spirit I think are the key to a great christmas. I wasn't feeling the christmas spirit this year as we woulddn't be able to see any of my siblings. They live in different states and with the economy all of us decided to stay home. This in turn brought about a special holiday for my mom and I. We had never spent christmas focused on us before because we always had family visiting. We decided to spend a day shopping and ended up in Macy's. We are an ornament family and shopping for just that special ornament brings a special feeling of excitement within you. My best friend got pink ornaments for her pink tree. I love ornaments that 'fly' so christmas morning, my mom gave me a bird ornament which I love. I in turn gave my mom a Macy's bag ornament dated 2011 to remember that special shopping day just for us. My son also got a twilight ornament. Yes! we are a twilight family. He is tall like Edward and his best friends we call Bella(she has long brown hair) and Jacob(his last name which I won't mention says it all!) In this day and time when everyone is watching their pennies, ornaments can fill the soul.

2012 Resolution!

Well, hello again!
It's been quite awhile since I've used this blog. I'm editing the old posts and my New Year's resolution is to be a blogger and possibly make some money :)
The subjects that I will be covering mostly is Autism, history views and experiences, books and possibly All my children if it continues..and possibly family traditions. I hope that you will love following my blog and possibly learn something as well.

exploring...this is what I do!

Yesterday, we tried to go to the Governor's Mansion in Richmond. They were closed and we were reminded that the Governor really does "live" in the mansion. So, we assumed that he was inside in P.J.'s watching t.v. :) We did however move on to the Capital which was extremely interesting. You now enter the Capital through an underground tunnel which they just built this year! They have renovated everything..and repainted and decorated mainly in Yellow and blue to show up the white statues that are in there. My friend being a history major was very careful not to touch things..then we found out everything was "copied" so that was somewhat of a disappointment. Josh loved it. When we were entering the grounds we saw a man cleaning the statues. I suggested to Josh that he could do that as a job..he said no, he wanted to be a guard instead. (Still wanting to be a part of the police somehow, I guess we should take a trip to the police station..maybe he could file or something) We had a great time:)
Next, I did some research on Depakote...and found that there are LOTS of personal injury firms advertising to for you to claim a case about Depakote, but have not physically found a case in the U.S.
For all those All my children watchers, what do you think about Greenlae? I still have some compassion for her...I missed the part when she left and came back so I still feel like she should be apart of Spike's life. Although I know some people feel very different...so I'm taking a poll...

Josh

This is Josh on the Tuckahoe Challenger Team. This year he is a Cardinal. The Challengers are for people w/ special needs and are located in different parts of the country. We are lucky to have one right here in our area and are extremely lucky to have the state tournaments located in Norfolk. Josh is on a travel team and likes playing other kids around the area. His baseball has improved alot in the last years from sitting in the field to catching and playing 3rd base.
