Little Happy Things

   Heyyy!  Whew!  The above post took a whole month!  I'm so sorry, y'all!  Thanks for the faithful ones that hung in there!

   So I guess what I'll do is just give you some little things that have been happening.  Here something new or exciting or sweet or funny happens every day.  I can't record all of them because I only brought one journal with me...:) 

   Well...I would like to show you a picture of Bugga-Boo, who has been mentioned before as "my munchkin baby sister."  I seem to be spending a lot of time with her these days.  The older kids spend nearly every spare moment they can find out playing with their friends on campus.  S. has been cleaning in the new house that they'll be moving into before too long...(LORD WILLING.)...which means that I spend most of my afternoons holding down the fort with Bugga-Boo.  Here she is!! 


     Isn't she just adorable??  These days she squeals instead of babbles, and it is evident now that she's got a fine little temper of her own...but it just reminds me how we're all born in sin, right?  One of her cuter quirks is that when anyone carries her, she just hangs loose.  She doesn't cling or put her arms or legs around you at all.  She just hangs there, and she's perfectly calm, like a Rag-Doll cat.  Haha!
  
   Sometimes when I'm cooking I have to watch Bugga Boo at the same time.  So I put her in her bouncy seat and put on some music and give her a toy, and usually she's as good as gold.  Of course  I turn around and talk to her every few minutes, and the instant we make eye-contact, her whole face lights up in her big, toothless smile.  It's precious!
  
   Right...where I was going with that was that one of my favorite things to put on when I'm cooking is "The Lord of the Rings" Musical

   Yes.  There is a musical of "The Lord of the Rings."  Apparantly it premiered in London in 2007, but it didn't get very much attention.  My big brother discovered it some time ago, and he showed me a Youtube lyric video of one of the songs last December.

   I want to rant about why I love it so much, but I think it'll be better to show you one of the songs instead.  If you don't care for it, it'll save your time, but if it gives you chillbumps, you should check it out. This one is called, "The Road Goes On."   



   The first two singers are Frodo and Sam, the next two are Merry and Pippin as they're walking through the Shire.  Then you hear the Elves singing in their own tongue--the language that J.R.R. Tolkien actually invented.  The last people singing are the Rangers from the North. 

   I hope you enjoyed it!  I shall post again soon!
