Laughter

The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~e.e. cummings

When you laugh, laugh hard. From the soul. Even if that means snorting :)

I love my friends and family. We could be doing the simplest of things or an adventure of sorts but its all about the who you are doing it with, not the what. At the end of the day, you must find the people that make you laugh, smile, and feel good. The ones you can be yourself around - the good, the bad, the ugly, and the uglier. Hold on to them. They are the ones worth keeping around forever.


A day in Georgetown with Tayyaba. Couldn't have been lovelier. We laughed a lot. And had yummy yogurt.

Mommy's garden

Since the family left on vacation last week, watering the flowers and plants has been my duty. And I must say, I thoroughly enjoy it. It's funny what happens when something becomes your responsibility. As silly as this may sound, I think about the garden all day. Especially on the hotter days as I sit inside and picture them burning up in the sun. I usually wait until the evening to water them but I can't wait. They need me! I spend a little time with each of them, including the ones in the house. It's such a peaceful time for me.

What will they do when I leave and we are all gone next week? Actually, what will I do without them.

Following the mad hatter...

"There is a place. Like no place on Earth. A land full of wonder, mystery, and danger. Some say to survive it: You need to be as mad as a hatter. Which luckily I am."

Sisters


Sisters. Yes, we're just sisters.

Our story is not heroic, not even

memorable. But when I need

support I sense you quietly by me.

I always will.
