ME: Hey does ur lil one know how to read food and ingredient labels? I think im going to start it with my kids! We may start calorie counting x exercise burn cal.
HIM: She likes to read 'em sometimes..likes reading the forecast more
HIM: My lil one is also really into the legos I got her for x-mas
ME: Lol i mean read and understand what it means.. hmm. I just want my kids to be more self sufficient so the can make wiser choices, one that are intune to what they feel is good for them and those around. Venture out with ideas and connect and inspire as they be inspired! When they hang with kids.. i want them to be able to help others &sway focus on growth of ideas and projects instead of drugs or disobeying/lawbreaking. Laugh.. give a warm hug with words. Be confident so fear wont hold them back when people question their creativity or try to bring them down. I want for them to be able to share wisdom and love ppl even when they moody.. go out of their way sometimes to bring a smile.. and say u know.. you are awesome even if u think u are less, because we all play an important role in this world in ways we cant even begin to count and all i need for you to know is im glad to know you... even its all said with just a hug on a nucky day! Xoxo lovethemanyways
HIM: Absolutely love this!!!
ME: Do u ever wonder how much of what you do will help them achieve.. that big glob of gooey happiness? I do, often.
HIM: Yep
ME: Legos ...love making castles! D gets crazy creative with legos. Tt once made a tower that reached my ceiling in the kitchen out of videotapes. I have pics... the happiness i feel as i reflect radiates so bright it burns holes in the film script of my mind.. leaving me excited to encourage more learning & exploring.
We are talking about how much a male cat having kittens is worth! And what came first chicken egg? Tt is tracing her numbers. We made a deal ....some writing practice then she gets to pick a musicvideo to dance to, practice & etc. Then reading!
I recall a question from a teacher at school during a meeting.. "what do you want for Damian 5yrs from now?"
I started with how it is hard to think that far ahead, but with a brief pause ... HAPPY!
What they do, feel, accomplish, etc is theirs to define, but I know happy is a place where magic lives and sparks of life fly.. and everything feels like it will be alright no matter what happens!! HAPPY

LEONA LEWIS - HAPPY
"Happy"
[Verse 1:]
Someone once told me that you have to choose
What you win or lose
You can't have everything
Don't you take chances
Might feel the pain
Don't you love in vain
Cause love won't set you free
I can't stand by the side
And watch this life pass me by
So unhappy
But safe as could be
[Chorus:]
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
Cause i'm just trying to be happy, yeah
Just wanna be happy, yeah
[Verse 2:]
Holding on tightly
Just can't let it go
Just trying to play my role
Slowly disappear, ohh
But all these days, they feel like they're the same
Just different faces, different names
Get me out of here
I can't stand by your side, ohh no
And watch this life pass me by, pass me by
[Chorus:]
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
Cause i'm just trying to be happy, ohh, happy, ohh
[Bridge:]
So any turns that I can't see,
like I'm a stranger on this road
But don't say victim
Don't say anything
[Chorus:]
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
[Outro:]
I just wanna be happy
Ohh, yeah, happy, ohh, happy
I just wanna be, ohh
I just wanna be happy
Ohh, happy
