Upside down

JACK JOHNSON
"Upside Down"

Who’s to say
What’s impossible
Well they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There’s no stopping curiosity

I want to turn the whole thing upside down
All finer things they say just can’t be found
I’ll share this love I find with everyone
We’ll sing and dance to Mother Nature’s songs
I don’t want this feeling to go away

Who’s to say
I can’t do everything
Well I can try
And as I roll along I begin to find
Things aren’t always just what they seem

I want to turn the whole thing upside
All finer things they say just can’t be found
I’ll share this love I find with everyone
We’ll sing and dance to Mother Nature’s songs
This world keeps spinning and there’s no time to waste
Well it all keeps spinning spinning round and round and

Upside down
Who’s to say what’s impossible and can’t be found
I don’t want this feeling to go away

Please don’t go away
Please don’t go away
Please don’t go away
Is this how it’s supposed to be
Is this how it’s supposed to be

Coldplay lyrics

Not being able to doing anything is one of the worst parts..

Fix You
by Coldplay

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I...

Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from the mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I...

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Good

Bella is fantastic!!!!

Sting Rays, Sharks, and Fishes, Oh My!

Here are two photos mommy took at the Georgia Aquarium. We had such a wonderful time! I got to hear all kinds of sounds, especially of kids yelling and laughing. Plus I got to hear all kinds of splashing. Mommy says there were little fish and big fish, blue fish and red fish. Some fish were nice, while others would bite you. Yikes! I had so much fun visiting Grandpa and Grandma Hardy. They gave me a lot of attention. Plus I visited with Auntie Nora, Great Grandma and Grandpa Johnson, Uncle Carie and Aunt Margaret. And for the first time, I met someone from France. His name was Elias and he was a visitor of Grandpa and Grandma Hardy. I had so much fun that I can't wait to go back!

Ta ta!

creed lyrics

Bella is doing fantastic!!!


With Arms Wide Open
by Creed

Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open

Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be
I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything ...oh yeah
With arms wide open..wide open

[Guitar Break]

If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open...

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything..oh yeah
With arms wide open....wide open

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Today is my daddy's birthday! He turns the big 3-0. Mommy is soooo happy that daddy is now in his thirties just like she is. If you get a chance, wish him a Happy Birthday. He would LOVE it!

Ta ta!

Thanks to all of the Isabellites for the yard sale on Saturday. Thanks to everyone who came and helped!!! Everything was a success. A big special thanks goes out to the Isabellites with the human given names of Gina, Randell, Will(ha, ha), and Caroline for everything. You really don't know how much it means to us. Thanxs!!! If Randell was here, I would give him a big ole' hug and kiss(sweet). Tell Michael, I said hi.....

Love ya
Jen, Jw, and hippie hippie shake Bella

Get up

Bella is doing well. She is now over 20lbs. She is becoming a chunky monkey!!!

Love ya
Jen, Jw. and Rotund Rory

I love you

Everything is good with no complaints

Love ya
Jen, Jw, and Big Girl Bella

Strange but true
Every time I look at you
The only three words I think of
I love you
Three words said to much
but not said enough

I just want you to open your eyes
and tell me that you can see me
I just want you to tell me
that you feel no pain

Time Alone

Time alone only makes things worse. You have way to much time to think about everything. Like the drive into work or laying down at night to go to sleep. I know that she is doing fine. But it goes through my mind the what ifs. You go from one scenario to the next. Usually ending up at the worst one. Or you hear a song and the lyrics make you tear up because you know what their talking about. Even if you really have no idea what they are talking about.

Love ya
Jen, Jw, and Big Girl Bella

Blast from the Past

Give me your hand. We will walk for awhile. No one ever said that it would be easy but no one ever said it would be this hard. Don't let go of my hand. I think that we have a chance if you just give me your hand.

Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol


We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Weekend in the Garden

We spent the weekend in Glasgow with nana and papaw. Fun in the big metropolis. A couple of days away. Jen and I left the baby with the folks so that we could venture into the surrounding cities(not the big cities though, there scary). Bella had a good time getting her picture taken in the flower gardens by nana or thats what nana says. She is doing delicious. She is a little piglet!

Peace unto you,
Jen, Jw, and Beautiful Bella

Does this diaper make my butt look big?

Bella is doing well. She has a good three weeks!

Peace be with you
Jen, Jw, and Belly sleeper Bella

Flowers/Snow Patrol lyrics

Bella's beauty is like this flower. Growing, Blooming, and just needing a little TLC!

Peace unto you,

Run
by Snow Patrol

I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all i've done.

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Anywhere from here

Light up, Light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
It makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do.

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

Slower, slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess.

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear.

Isn't She Lovely

Sorry that I haven't updated this sooner. But when things are going well, its hard to remember that she is sick. Besides the medicine, therapist everyday, doctors appointments, and the scars, everything seems fine. Bella had a good weekend. Papaw and Nana came up for the weekend. So I'm sure she got plenty of lovin'. Papaw even took a stab at feeding her!(no kiddin')

Peace with you,
Jen, Jw, and my hair is growing back Bella

Pretty

Bella is doing better now. She hasn't thrown up in a couple of days.
She also has learned to acknowledge the word "pretty". So you can say, "Bella, Are you pretty?". Then she smiles. Its cute!!!
