Stuff

Last night, while I was emailing mom some pictures, hubby and S were watching VCD of Chinese children songs that we called Orange Cat. When I was done on the computer, I went over to check on them. S was fully engaged with the show and hubby was falling asleep with his head leaning towards S.
I can feel his love for her when
He kisses her cheek to wake her up in the morning
He places marshmallows around the house so she can find them
He finishes carving the pumpkin even though S lost interest
He sits through Orange Cat and falls asleep

I like John Mayer’s song Daughters. Those who have daughters would relate to the song.

Here’s the lyric

John Mayer - Daughters Lyrics
I know a girl
She puts the color inside of my world
She's just like a maze
Where all of the walls all continually change
And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

Fathers be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers be good to your daughters too

Oh, you see that skin?
It's the same she's been standing in
Since the day she saw him walking away
Now she's left
Cleaning up the mess he made

Fathers be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers be good to your daughters too

Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong
And boys soldier on
But boys would be gone without warmth from
A woman's good, good heart

On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world

So fathers be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers be good to your daughters, too
So mothers be good to your daughters, too
So mothers be good to your daughters, too
