The Dukes of Heber: Hands

Hands

Hannah stopped by to see me at work yesterday. While she was here she asked me for Maria's phone number so she could call her. I grabbed a pen and wrote it in the palm of her hand so she could call when she got home. She opened her hand up and stared at her palm with those great big blue eyes...then she said,

"Mom, I am so glad we have hands!"

Me, too.

So if you are looking for derby tickets, I think they are still available on the county website...you may want to check there.

I am...

I am a daughter, a mother, a sister, a grand-daughter, a niece, a cousin, an aunt, and a friend. I am a partner, a student, a young girl, and a grown woman. I am confident and scared, terrified and excited. I am amazing and yet I forget what I am worth. I am loving and caring and thoughtful and hopeful. I am sick and tired. I am shy and friendly, careful and careless. I am broken and whole. I am misunderstood. I am hard working and determined, but a little scared on the inside. I can carry a heavy burdon and deal with stress. I wish on stars and dream my dreams. I pray to God and cry my tears. I smile on the outside while I'm dying on the inside. I sing when I feel like crying, I cry when I am happy, and laugh when I am afraid. I am silent when all I want to do is scream out. I listen to others who won't listen to me. I walk on eggshells and I walk on fire. I believe in passion and in true love. My love is unconditional. I am everything and nothing at all.
