michelle's thought for today....

SO, as i finished putting hair bands in michelle's hair this morning, she quickly went to the bathroom mirror to check it out. she came out and proudly said,

"i look soooo pretty.... except for my face."

poor kid. she said it so matter of factly, like it didn't bother her that her face looked horrible. she's at this golden age where her looks don't phase her. blissfully ignorant. nice.

my beat up little angel singing on high...

oh, and when people ask her what happened she replies:
"elise ran me over with the stroller." hee hee hee hee.
also, if you see her at all, please don't ask her what happened to her face. she's starting to get annoyed. we had to explain that people are just concerned but i don't think she's buying it anymore....

and on to a great thoughtful song for the weekend.

It's not that unusual
when everything is beautiful
it's just another
ordinary miracle today

the sky knows when it's time to snow
don't need to teach a seed to grow
it's just another
ordinary miracle today

life is like a gift, they say
wrapped up for you everyday
open up, and find a way
to give some of your own

isn't it remarkable?
like every time a raindrop falls

the birds in winter have their fling
and always make it home by spring

when you wake up everyday
please don't throw your dreams away
hold them close to your heart
'cause we are all a part
of the ordinary miracle

do you want to see a miracle?

it seems so exceptional
that things work out after all

the sun comes out and shines so bright
and disappears again at night
it's just another
ordinary miracle today

it's just another
ordinary miracle today
