PiNnoCcHiO



I just had to post on this too...Annelise has love the movie Pinnochio since it came out. She drew a picture of Pinnochio when he has donkey ears with Cleo (the goldfish) and Figaro (the cat). I am so glad too because I am a personal huge fan of the movie...why you say? Well, because the main song is super duper special to me. "When you wish upon a star" was written by my Uncle Lloyd Harline. And since he is from my dad's side...we had a special experience with the song when my dad was dying. We all have plaques in our homes with the words. The song just makes me cry. And I have tried to sing it to each of my kids when they were babies before putting them to bed. I also have Cole's room decorated with stars and the plaque as a theme because we love the song. And I love the family it came from! And I do wish upon stars...and have always believed that my wishes do come true. Do you?

B- duh, why didn't I even think of happiest toddler on the block. I loved the happiest baby on the block - I'm going tomorrow to get the toddler one. Yeah, I just ended up letting addi cry it out (usually only lasted 5 min.) for a couple days and then she was back to normal. Let's do lunch! You know what, we should meet in SL and do a picnic with this nice weather. When do you want to?

Okay, so I had no idea that that was the reason why we have that plaque. I knew that it had something to do with your dad, but I didn't know that it was because of that song, nor did I know that a relative wrote that song. I get so left out of the loop cause Brandon doesn't pay attention to detail or he just doesn't tell me these things. I think I will need to start calling you every week and you can tell me something new about the family. By the way, I love the picture-she is just too darn cute. I hope you like what I am making for her. Can't wait to see you.

I love how Mayra had no idea about the significance of that song:) Too funny...I want to buy the movie too because it will be locked up in the vault again soon. That is one worth investing in for sure. Are you excited for Rocky Point?
