Lucky

Turn up the volume on your computer and hear the song with which I am currently obsessed. Now, I rarely get obsessed with songs (mostly because I don't really listen to the radio unless it's NPR). However, this song by Jason Mraz, "Lucky" is so sweet! It really makes me think of Dane and how much I love him. He's a great husband and a wonderful and loving father. Right now he's in Florida and I won't see him until Saturday or Sunday, so instead I'll just listen to this song and patiently await dancing to it with him!

Here's the back story: Dane's stepfather, Wally, had a stroke on New Year's Day in Florida where he and Dane's mom spend their winters in their camper. He passed away on January 9, 2009. Dane's mom drove up with his sisters back to NY in his mom's car, but the truck and the camper were still in Florida. Dane left today with his mom to go bring the truck and the camper back to NY. Meanwhile I can empathize with every single working mother. Hopefully I never have to do this for more than a couple of days. In light of everything, I feel "Lucky to be in love with my best friend..." as the song goes.

Tummy Heart

Ty: Um...my heart is in my tummy.
Me: Your heart is in your tummy?
Ty: Yes, I think it's beating in my foot.

Apparently I have much to teach him about his body and how it works.

Mailman?

Yesterday as we were leaving to run some errands, the mailman was coming around and handed me the mail. I took it and then got into the car. Ty asked, "Mommy, who's that?" I replied, "That was the mailman. He gave me our mail." Then Ty said, "Oh yeah, I know him. He's the email man."
