I just got back yesterday from SLC. It's always good to go. Only this time I inherited an 'awesome' sinus infection, so tonight my 14th time seeing Phantom of the Opera will be an interesting one cause it'll sound like it's being performed under water. Anyway, home was great of course. It was my grandma Ruby's 90th birthday so everyone on my dad's side of the family came to hang out at my Aunt Joan and Uncle Bruce's (and Kimmie's) house. I played Grandma the song I wrote for her. It's called "Ruby's Smile" (no, not like "Jamie Smiles" from just friends. Haha) and I said I was gonna make it through without choking up...but I didn't. Neither did she or any of my aunts though so I don't feel too incredibly bad about it. Anyway, now I'm at work and don't have tons of time to write, but this is me making an effort! :p

<3 to all.

RUBY'S SMILE
M.Trunnell 2009

I've got someone who is always with me
She brings out the sunshine, she fills what I'm missing
And I feel so lucky that I know what it means
Just to know her goodness and hear her melody

When there is dark, she is the light
When I am wrong she knows what's right

I've got her hands, her dancin' feet
And when I'm down it's Ruby's smile that helps me keep the beat
I've got her ear, and I can sing
But if I could wear Ruby's smile, I know I would have everything

She's my angel and she always saves me
From the trouble that I always get myself into
And I feel so lucky that I know what love means
Cause when Ruby smiles true love fills the room

When I am ill she makes me whole
Her harmony runs through my blood, sings to my soul

I've got her hands, her dancin' feet
And when I'm down it's Ruby's smile that helps me keep the beat
I've got her ear and I can sing
But if I could wear Ruby's smile, I know I would have everything

You are my love you are my light
I love you so I hope you know it's such a sight

When you smile.

I've got someone who is always with me
She brings out the sunshine, she fills what I'm missing.
