Dad cooking?

I'm making tortillas.  Is this cooking or baking?  Not my first batch but I hope make them better than my last.

Granted

Arielle draws everyday.  I forget to notice every wonderful piece of art she makes.   I take it for granted.

She's gone from asking to telling mother she will be famous.  I tell her success comes from loving what your doing.  Everything else will take care of itself.

Hollow hearts

This week seemed endless.  Hard work for one and all made time slow with the sorrow left from last weeks loss.  Thankful for our health and eachother.

Love makes it real

Arielle loves to draw every day. Even while watching TV.

Santa still lives and

Halloween still holds an inocent magic. I hope I get some chocolate before Arielle and Mom give away all the good stuff.

Lori and I enjoy An American in Paris hyped up on chocolate from the nights cash. I ask myself how I know the songs.

Nick Brings Change

We have to look now at the life we are to lead individually from here on out without Nick Dorris.  I have to ask myself if I can fill the gap that he has left.  As I remember Nick I only see wit and charm as he entered my presence.  He brought light into a room, smiled in adversity and seeked joy for everyone he spoke with.

His potential was limitless.  His desire was to bring calm to a turbulent world with his music.  Even though his lyrics were self-reflective of his life his intentions were to rise above the tides of change and grow.

His life will bring change to mine and I will be influenced forever by his souls presents in my life fore he will always be with me in my heart.

There is a time coming....

Arielle will soon be able to add her own pictures to this blog with her new tablet.  She is growing up fast and is smart as ever.  Her path is art and here is just a start of what she offers.
