another mexico adventure for lily

boo hoo ... she is leaving on a jet plane with her favorite quilt..xoxo

our youngest is off on her second mexico adventure...she lived in puerto vallarta april- august of this year...she has been back home for 4 months working hard and saving madly to go back...we drove her to the airport this morning ...i am not a cry baby ~ usually ~  but she plans on being gone till may  xoxoxo

she was one happy girl on the way to the airport xoxox

we decorated and celebrated some early christmas with her xoxo

and we did manage to have a great day with pedicures and shopping before she left

we r so lucky to have urban nails close by...

the brothers and ani were home for an early xmas / good bye dinner...sara had to work and joined us later

we made italian soup stew [ surprize ingredient is dill pickles and prawns are a very good addition ] and it is sooo very very delicious and easy to make

i carry your heart w me xoxox i found these here and got them for me and my girls xoxoxo i love this poem...always think of it when my kids are away xoxo

[i carry your heart with me(i carry it in]

BY E. E. CUMMINGS

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in

my heart)i am never without it(anywhere

i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done

by only me is your doing,my darling)

                                                      i fear

no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want

no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)

and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

it was so very nice to have lily home for 4 months...we bonded ...and argued a teeny bit... cuz she is very messy and loves it that  way ...but she sings all the time and that makes up for it !! i am so proud of her and happy for her ...we will be missing her lots!! xoxoox

happy monday ...i am planning a very busy day to ease my sad heart xoxo  pam
