Not sure about the light blue color, but i’ll give it a go for now. I’m also in the process of updating the “Blogs” and “links” section. I’m also bringing over the “something to think about” from the old blog.

“Houston” June 7, 2007

When I was younger my mom did this thing where she would put on music and “move” for something like 30 minutes. She would do this in our den at home. The movement could be anything, dancing, jogging in place, swinging your arms, etc. Needless to say, my brother, sister and I couldn’t help but join in the fun. My mom had a mixed tape of music that she would move to. Music like Van Morrison and Billy Joel would thunder through the two 10 inch speakers located on opposite sides on the den. I would start on the carpet and move my way to jumping on the couch. When dad would get home he would join in and usually dance with Rachel and wait for a slower song and dance with mom. Somewhere about mid-tape Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” would come on, in which the tag line of the song is “I wanna dance with somebody, with somebody who loves me.” That meant something to me, because there I was in the midst of my family and we were all dancing around, loving, laughing and having a great time. Every time I hear that song on the radio I remember those moments and hope for more.
