We had a very busy weekend. How was yours?
We capped the weekend off by going to a friend’s 40th in their back yard last night. It was a wonderful evening to be outside.
We didn’t intend to stay long but that plan didn’t quite come together. After all, there was karaoke and Emily wanted to stay and sing.
Emily’s a very confident 8 ½ year old and she’s got a great voice.
It was interesting to hear her first choice of song. It wasn’t Hilary Duff or Avril Lavigne; it was Van Morrison’s Brown Eyed Girl. She’s got the most gorgeous big brown eyes and the song is a bit of a family favourite. It’s got extra special significance for my little girl and me.
I stood watching her last night absolutely awestruck. She’s growing up so fast – but she’ll always be my brown eyed girl.

Ah, I think Avril got a Juno tonight. Juno’s are Canada’s music awards. Basically though, I’m just saying hello.
Thanks for dropping in.
Emily’s quite a fan of Avril so I’m sure she’ll be pleased about the award.
