ten years and…
^ ^
the day you chose to stray
was
the day you became the
center
of our universe
&
ten years later…
you are…
still…

Happy 20th Pnut!

I am in shock
&
in awe
&
in a state of disbelief
&
I am amazed
how
20 years
could fly by
on a breeze
~

Actually Jordan is jumping!!! Not certain if there is a breeze but, yes he is really jumping and this photo, believe it or not, was neither tweaked, photo shopped or anything of the like! (Honestly, I asked.) It seemed Jordan kept jumping like a jack-in-the-box and Peyton took rapid shots with his i-phone and this is the ‘highest point’ picture!
~
they…
ς
they inspire
my sun, my moon
&
stars,
each blink of an eye
&
beat of my heart.
they spin my world
each day and night
&
give me wings to fly
so
my faith can take flight ~

Weekly Pet Share – Familee Observations with Sydnee Pee

Sydnee Pee looking at Jordy and Peyton – they are both sitting behind me (I am actually on the couch:).

These photos were taken the night of New Year’s Eve. I was sitting on the couch (yes, Pee let me share, along with a blanket – woohoo!), Peyton was on the rocking chair behind me and Jordan was moving all over the place. There was a Doobie Brothers concert on the television and he was dancing. I was watching Pee watch her brothers and it was the darnedest cute’ist thing. She was beaming her ‘my brothers are home’ smile. I did try to record video, but the lighting was less than ideal. If I got off the couch to remedy the situation, I would have ruined the moment…and lost my spot on the couch…

It was a wild night with mom on the couch, watching public TV, Jordy dancing to The Doobie Brothers and Peyton with his nose in his I-pad thingy. So wild in fact…I could not contain my emotions…. Did I mention I was forced to stay up wayyyy past my bedtime?

night number five

made by tiny hands
special treasures from their youth
no candles required

Peyton’s menorah made in 1999 of pasta, paint and glue. One lasagna noodle and ten rigatoni pieces (tidbit of advice – try to use the pasta with the least amount of bend 🙂

the second night of lights

standing tall and proud
each flame reaches to the sky
solace holds my hand

the drip mats were made by the boys in preschool. Jordan’s was made in 1997 – less than two months after Peyton was born.
γ
a decade passed
∫
ten birthdays,
two bar mitzvahs,
first jobs
&
concerts.
∫
sports and art expos,
a high school graduation,
driving a car
&
one off to college.

dreams so desperately wished upon
have passed without her here ~ ~ ~
and
though i see her in their eyes
and
feel her in my heart,
the sadness of missing my mother will never fade
or
truly
ever
depart.
