For My Friend Terri


Terri, I don't know what you do when you have a bad day, but I listen to U2. I dedicate this song to you today

Beautiful Day
The Heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town

You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you aren't moving anywhere

It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination

You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tune fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day

If that one doesn't fit your mood, try Walk On or Kite.

Dearest Erica,
Thank you for your friendship and support. These people don't know who they are dealing with. WE are adoptive parents, we have been through the dossier process and survived, we are tough. Don't mess with me! Thank you for the song dedication!

And take care of yourself, drink your fluids, get your rest and dream of having Mayling home!
Thanks again for your support!
Terri
