Sucker!

I find it pretty funny to think that the brother that once chased me and shot me with toy bow-and-arrows, the violent, sneaky, quick, black belt brother, is now a sucker for romance :D

Or perhaps it's always been there, and only after aging has the facade been removed. Hmm, yeah I guess I could believe it...really little boys being romantics :)

According to Brother, this almost takes priority over seeing Inception (which I haven't seen yet).

What does music mean to you?

Good question. :)

The House of God, Forever

God is my shepherd

I won't be wanting

I won't be wanting

He makes me rest

In fields of green

With quite streams

Even though I walk

Through the valley

Of death and dying

I will not fear

'Cause you are with me

You are with me

Your shepherd staff

Comforts me

You are my feast

In the presence of enemy

Surely goodness

Follow me

Follow me

In the house of God, forever

God is my shepherd

I won't be wanting

I won't be wanting

He makes me rest

In fields of green

Like quiet streams

Even while I'm walking

Through the valley

Of death and dying

I will not fear

'Cause you are with me

You're always with me

I need not want. I need not fear. He's already giving me the best...providing fields of green.

Ericisms

"How do you know Marie bigby's digger?"

"They're already providing the convenientness. I mean convenience..."

"It represented the draught. Drought. It's drought right? Why'd I say, 'Draught'?"

"Cly the tram. I mean try the clam...."

More to come, I'm sure. Hope all is going well in NY...I'm excited for you!

Il bianco e dolce cigno

The gentle white swan, singing, dies; and I, weeping approach the end of my life. The difference is strange: he dies disconsolate, and I die blessed. That death, which is not to die but to fill me with all joy and desire: if in dying thus I will not feel sorrow, I will be pleased to die a thousand times each day. ~ Timothy Dickey, Rovi

-my brother's new home?!

It's so strange to think that Eric won't be in our home for the next four months...that he won't be playing the theme song of UP while I do my homework or that he won't be playing with Kitty. I'm loving and treasuring the time I have with both Eric and Momma Hsieh this weekend...we haven't had it in a long time and we won't have it for a while. Praise God for such a funny, loving family.
