Batwoman and Astronaut

No this isn't the beginning of a bad joke...



Today my two full time Dayhome children are still home sick... So I decided to take a much needed 'moment' with my girls to ask them what they would like to be when they get older.



Emma isn't 100% sure right now but being an Astronaut is still at the top of her list.



Zoë on the other hand said 'Mommy, I'd like to be a Dinosaur'.... k...... I think she was thinking that I was asking about Hallo'ween as she was that last Hallo'ween and LOVED it!



Then Zoë says 'I'd like to be a bat!' to which Emma asks 'Which kind? The one that you hit with or the one with wings??' (all with actions of course).... 'The one with wings!' replied Zoë.



Then she looks down at her place mat, moves her plate and say 'Like this!'... The picture is Batman. My youngest has the desire to grow up and become a Superhero! That 'flies'! Or at least has kick butt technology to make it seem that way!



Ahh yes... I look forward to asking them this question every now and then to see what their answers are. And I really look forward to telling them all of this one day when they're older... *L*

Ahh Van Morrison!

Here I am, supposed to be getting ready for shopping and a night out with my kids, sitting at my computer listening to Van Morrison!

Oh Van, how you have a special place in my heart!

For a split second I caught myself with my eyes closed remembering a time of my Mom and I in our living room.... Van Morrison in the background and the winter snow blowing outside.

What a wonderful, wonderful feeling I get inside me.

Sort of like the feeling you get after swallowing a mouthful of hot chocolate.

It makes me feel safe and warm inside.

I love Van Morrison's work and could listen to it all night.

I love the way it makes me think of my childhood.... Music, My Mom and I.... All have a special place in my heart.

Off I go to get ready while listening to 'Brown Eyed Girl'.....
