The Senator’s Daughter reads….


TWILIGHT!  

Well, actually she just started New Moon.

And I totally get it now.  Me, who is not a big reader of fiction, totally understands the obsession with these books….because I am obsessed with these books.  
O.K. so, here is how our Twilight obsession began. I’m going to blame my favorite niece (pictured below on her wedding day) who teaches third grade in Colorado. She came to visit us recently.  My niece is an amazing young lady, drop dead gorgeous, smart, funny, adventurous, and someone you either want to be like or want to be jealous of….it is that simple.  

Anyway, she encouraged my daughter to dive into the Twilight series and because my daughter wants to grow up to be just like her and listens to every word she says…she did. Start reading the books, I mean.

Wow!  What a love story.  Go Bella and Edward! Did I just say that? This is such a interesting love story that lures you in to read and read and read. And I don’t have a lot of free time right now to drop everything and read.  Really, I don’t.
Not sure the Senator gets our new found passion with vampires either.  So I tell him that he just needs to stay focused on the size of the book his daughter is reading and be impressed.  Stay focused on that Senator and be glad you are not paying her a penny a page!
Happy Thursday!
The (mildly obsessed with Twilight) Senator’s Wife

WOW!

Afternoon Update!

This woman is my hero.  Seriously.  Nearly 7 million hits in less than an hour?!  Love her!
I saw a clip of this video last night on the news and was moved.  I even forced Thunder and Lightening to watch it this morning and they were mesmerized.  If Lightening will sit and listen to a Broadway show tune, well it must be captivating.  So much so that I almost forgot I had just kissed the Senator goodbye as he headed back to the Lion’s Den at the State Capitol. He had a tea party to go to………
Go get ’em honey, because I’ll be hanging out with this sensational British singer today!  It’s called stress therapy.
Enjoy!

P.S.  Just after lunch, this particular clip on YouTube had nearly 6 million hits.  I think I account for at least 10 of them.  Such a beautiful story.
