"I Love the Rain the Most When it Stops" - Joe Purdy
Well, I love the rain the most when it stops
We can see the big white house, yeah, and the docks
And we can jump in the river, don't know if the water or the sky is clearer
But I know that I love the rain the most when it stops
Yeah, when it stops
No more grey today, we gonna celebrate
You know Miss Sunshine, she starts to paint a perfect picture of this river parade
And I know that I love the rain the most when it stops
Yeah, when it stops
Well, the dark waves, they start singing together
I can't believe this change in the weather
I start to hum a child's rhyme
And all these boats, they start rocking in time
And I love the rain the most when it stops
Yes, we love the rain the most when it stops
Yeah, when it stops
The summer is coming to an end
We ain't gonna let that slow us down one bit
Til that sunset will start to fade
They're gonna drag us screaming from these old riverbanks
We love the rain the most when it stops
We love the rain the most when it stops
Yeah, when it stops
Yeah, when it stops
Yeah, when it stops
When it stops, when it stops, when it stops...
Yeah, when it stops
I think you've had a little too much to drink
Let me help with that
Don't forget to tie the boat up
Not that way, no it's a figure eight, yeah
Yeah, when it stops...
The rain, when it stops...

MICHELLE
I got to see Michelle this weekend. It was AMAZING! We had so much fun!!! Meeting the various people that Michelle works with was great too. They are hilarious and we had a great time.
Man! I can't believe that it has been a year since Michelle and I were together! It didn't feel like it at all. Oh my! I didn't want her to leave to day :( It was sad. I cried a little. I already miss her. But hokey-dina! Did we have fun.
Everyone went to the Ranch last night to dance up a storm. SO SWEET!!! Hahahaha! I'm still laughing about certain things. Mark and Troy, two of the guys that were playing on the hockey team were hilarious! They are so funny. Mark and I are buddies now. Troy is always coming up with sweet one-liners. It was a grand time.
Michelle met Chad in the airport when they first got out here. He is sweet! So fun and cute! The three of us had a good time shopping and hanging out and what not. It was so sad saying BYE to everyone today and I had only known then for TWO days!!!! Ridiculous.
Rod, Michelle's higher-up is great! I totally appreciate him so much. He's so funny and just COOL. You have no idea! He rode the mechanical bull at the bar last night! Splendid!
AHHHH!!! I had such a good weekend! I'm sad that it has ended and tomorrow it is back to work and all that jazz...sigh...such is life! :P

Children
I know you are already thinking that I'm this nut-case that just wants to be a mom...and to that I merely shrug...because for the most part it's true.
Working at the Daycare hasn't exactly made that little urge subside. The kids...my toddlers are just oh-so-adorable! They break my heart everyday. It's good heartbreak. The kind where you just don't have words and can't help but smile. They are SO cute! One of the little guys, Aric, has the bluest eyes, and curly blonde hair...and he makes me melt. He giggles and when he wakes up from his nap he loves to cuddle for a few minutes before going back to playing. And he loves giving hugs!
Addison always says, "Me, Addison. You, Megan," and then grins from ear to ear. He also enjoys giving hugs, and that just makes my day! He's got the cutest expressions. Again, I just melt.
Chipo loves to dance. She always tries to get me to pick her up. She's quite the monkey.
Anjali usually has a smile on her face. The brightest smile on the planet. Or large crocodile tears rolling down her cheeks. She's a little scamp.
Marley enjoys frequent trips to the bathroom to play with water in the sink. She keeps me on my toes.
Kayden doesn't like to nap. Neither does Angelina for that matter. And so it takes a lot of back rubbing and whispering to get them to sleep.
Ella and Ellery and both thoughtful and sweet. They want to help with the littler kids.
Omar and Monika are new. They are still adjusting. And there are many tears between the two of them. But they are getting better.
And that's all of them. They have their 'up's' and 'down's', but overall, you can not help but love them. You really just can't help it. It just happens. LOVE. Simple!!!!

Easter Sunday
It's Easter Sunday.
I'm far away from home and family and all the things that I love about Holidays.
And that makes me a little sad.
But today is the day that we celebrate Jesus' rising from the dead! He lives!
Singing today in church was really something else.
Listening to the choir had me in tears.
The voices were amazing, but the message is really what hit home.
HE LIVES!!!
The shedding of his blood saved us from our sins. Even when we feel like we should probably just give up and lose hope and faith...we are reminded that Jesus lives! And he loves us.
So today, I just felt hopeful. For the first time in a long time actually. I felt hopeful because He lives and he forgives and he saves.
He is risen! He is risen indeed!
Happy Easter!

I'd Lie - Taylor Swift
I don't think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells me about his night
And I count the colors in his eyes
He'll never fall in love he swears
As he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing cuz I hope he's wrong
And I don't think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke
And I fake a smile
But I know all his favorite songs
And I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He loves to argue
Born on the 17th
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him
I'd lie
He looks around the room
Innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn't a light go on
Doesn't he know
I've had him memorized for so long
He sees everything in black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don't let nobody
See me wishing he was mine
He stands there then walks away
My God if I could only say
I'm holding every breath for you
He'd never tell you
But he can play guitar
I think he can see through
Everything but my heart
First thought when I wake up
Is my God he's beautiful
So I put on my make up
And pray for a miracle
Yes I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He loves to argue
Born on the 17th
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him
I'd lie...
Yesterday was one of those days...Rowan and I hung out when I was done work and spent the majority of our time talking about boys. And so then I wanted one...One to be in my world, in my life, one to know. And that's a little depressing I suppose. But it was just one of those days, where you get hung up on the NOT having a relationship like that. Which isn't the end of the world, it's just not supremely stellar. And so...this song. I love this song. It's often on repeat. It's just that good. Just that good. Shrug. Sometimes I repeat myself. Lame. I'm done now.
