I can't believe that my Mum would only be 85 years old today. That is so young. She left us way too early. Today I was at an Art exhibit opening, with a live Hawaiin band. When they sang this song that I love, I imagined Mum looking down from over the rainbow. Miss her.
“Somewhere Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World” by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby (Ai)
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby (Ai)
(Oh) Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of,
Dreams really do come true (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of,
Dreams really do come true (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Someday I’ll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That’s where you’ll find me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That’s where you’ll find me
(Oh) Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can’t I (hai hai, ai ai ai)
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can’t I (hai hai, ai ai ai)

Beautiful Mum. I miss her too much.
I spent quite a lot of today thinking about Mum - 30/9/14 more than in previous years - I'm so glad she is not fading but getting to be a stronger memory in my life. i forgot to tell Josh it was avozinho's birthday today.
