and again with the plot twists
So I had a whole adventure planned today, shopping, tattoos and piercings, movie, dinner out to date myself, just a day to do things Ive been thinking about and to prepare for an adventure this summer, when just as i'm about to set foot out the door, my daughter texts me to ask if i'm busy... No..? whats up? she's performing today, her chorus group is singing at the Art Museam can I go? ... my amazing baby is singing again? SHITCHA! I'll be right over.
so I watch both performances, see her in a solo group for Seasons of Love from Rent. and just shine for her. She is So gifted. reminds me of the end of the movie for YaYa sisterhood. everything I wanted to be, I had in you. she sings better, plays piano better, draws better. Im beginning to fear I won't have much to teach her. She is just so amazing to me, and so much of her father, it breaks my heart all over again, just a little, every time i'm with her, I miss him so much. And of course, after her show we tour the art museam, and I pick up a few gifts, for my father, my mother, my self- a Goregeous blue Butterfly umbrella (i was justified, it was raining, she picked it out) , and some birthday ideas for my daughter, as she can't help but go "MOM! aren't these so Preeeety??" as she shows me earrings, a velvet scarf, a faux cat statue. (fake fur, the kind ment to look real) and other ideas.
we leave the museam and head back to her house, have dinner with both her uncles, their wives, their kids (three between them, all under 5) Popop and Grandma. food and laughs with extended family, a few hours with my baby, and everyone amazed i've been a week smoke free already. I even tempted fate, on the way home I hit the pharmacy, i needed a button battery for my glucometer, and DID NOT consider the smokes, any of them, so I'm hella proud of me. I think I can kick this demon again.
now if only i could see my little two... =( ah well...
