Then there's the important stuff...
Jan. 22nd, 2008 12:54 pmGO LOOK at this video...have a hankie nearby. Send it to everyone you know, view it multiple times. What a precious, beautiful girl and what brave parents. What's more important than helping our children, their children? Nothing.

One more...
Jan. 22nd, 2008 06:31 pmOne of the AWESOME moments of SAPA Character Camp this year that I neglected to post but which still fills my heart with squeeeee:
At the end of the wrap-up session, in which Coop was so generous as to allow me to participate, Bruce called for "one more song" which I think everyone could predict.
As he started "Parting Glass" everyone reached out for everyone else until we were in a double-circle hug and singing gloriously.
My mental image is being between Novie/Capn Latimer and Matthew/Owain Fysher and looking at my Beloved and Band-mate and other well-loved friends. Then when it came to the second verse, I stuck my arm up, the one that wasn't clutching Novie, and conducted that awesome group in the harmony verse.
Ye gods, that was intense! I could feel everyone watching and in accord with that song and with one another.
Man, oh man....talk about Golden Moments!
Edit: Not to mention (how could I have forgotten?) that I discovered Benedictine Brandy this weekend...as Susan (the ArchDuchess) said, "pressed from the thighs of Benedictines..." Ye GAWDS, is that stuff smooth!
