To my girls

Oh heavens. I just came to scope out the blog to see if Kate had said anything about her Mr. ShmootzyPoo (can I say that Kate?? You do know that's a term of endearment for Tony/Andrew, right? Wait... can I have terms of endearment for other peoples' fellas??? Oh goodness. Moving on...) and realized, to my horror, that I never posted anything about Blake.

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for the epic-failer at keeping in touch and updating... (And the crowd goes wild.)

Oh bilge. Sorry girls! I did have some good phone chats though, (stickers for Kate's virtual star chart! Yay!) and thank goodness for that or we all would have woken up one day to find that I had a new last name!

Anyway, here's my apology and my thanks to you girls for being such gems to me now and forever. You girls are wonderful and I love you so much! I pray for your success and your happiness---the lyrics of Rascal Flatts' "My Wish" come to mind...

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,
But more than anything, more than anything,

My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold;
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more than you take.
But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.


All my love, girls--
Love, Your Partner in Crime and Red High Heels
