Saturday cereal...

Wednesday I got to play with Grey and Grahm while Mark and Tiffani went skiing with Cash and Colby. A little before bedtime Grey said he wanted a snack. I saw some Fruit Loops and Lucky Charms in the pantry. I asked Grey if he wanted some cereal and he said, "that's Saturday cereal." Silly me, we found another snack!

"Where the Lost Things Go..."

My favorite song from the movie "Mary Poppins Returns." 

Michael Banks is an adult now struggling to hold it together while raising his three children, following the death of his wife. The children are young and miss their mother. "Where the Lost Things Go" is a song that comforts the children. It's a tender song that brought tears to my eyes. I have "lost" so many people I love but I know "nothing's gone forever only out of place..." 

The Place Where Lost Things Go

Do you ever lie

Awake at night

Just between the dark

And the morning light

Searching for the things

You used to know

Looking for the place

Where the lost things go

Do you ever dream

Or reminisce

Wondering where to find

What you truly miss

Well maybe all those things

That you love so

Are waiting in the place

Where the lost things go

Memories you've shed

Gone for good you feared

They're all around you still

Though they've disappeared

Nothing's really left

Or lost without a trace

Nothing's gone forever

Only out of place

So maybe now the dish

And my best spoon

Are playing hide and seek

Just behind the moon

Waiting there until

It's time to show

Spring is like that now

Far beneath the snow

Hiding in the place

Where the lost things go

Time to close your eyes

So sleep…

So when you need her touch

And loving gaze

Gone but not forgotten

Is the perfect phrase

Smiling from a star

That she makes glow

Trust she's always there

Watching as you grow

Find her in the place

Where the lost things go

Look for the helpers...

“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”
