The American Hero
by Roger Robicheau
The American Hero always comes through. To capture our hearts with a spirit so true
Some proudly are soldiers who march in harm’s way Insuring our freedom, courageous they stay While others come forth as civilians so brave Determined in purpose, so steadfast to save
We should always keep clear a place in our heart. for each has a value beyond precious art
Their duty to country will not be surpassed. Please honor their courage, for some it’s their last
We live in a world which can be hard to bear. Thank God for these people, how greatly they care
Do ponder new heroes and what they will face. And pray for their safety no matter their place
Our heritage brings out the best, we all know Our great book of heroes is destined to grow

Mom, you're a wonderful mother,So gentle, yet so strong.The many ways you show you care Always make me feel I belong. 
You're patient when I'm foolish; You give guidance when I ask; It seems you can do most anything
You're patient when I'm foolish; You give guidance when I ask; It seems you can do most anything
You're the master of every task.
You're a dependable source of comfort
You're a dependable source of comfort
You're my cushion when I fall.
You help in times of trouble
You support me whenever I call (not yet)
I love you more than you know
I love you more than you know
You have my total respect.
If I had my choice of mothers,You'd be the one I'd select!

Caden's first trip out of the country was a success. He loved the water, beach, sun and people. We stayed at Playa Del Carmen (Rivera Mya) Mexico. The weather was amazing, the hotel grounds beautiful and the people so friendly. We are ready to go back!
Blackberry sitting on my tongue, not my ear
No reason to listen to a phone when the sweetness is untold
Someone calling me
Nope I am eating a Blackberry
Going to sit back and enjoy
Before I take a bath and play with some toys.
One thing I am learning is to smell the flowers thanks to Caden. Blackberry's, the fruit seem to hold my attention more then the BlackBerry phone.
Thanks for helping me take a break from time to time Mr. Caden.
Ok, you’re in bed so back to the BlackBerry - the hand held one.
Hey Michael,
Thanks for the kicks. I am going to hoop it up with King James this weekend!!!!!!!!! (Caden)
And thanks for taking Tricia to the fashion show in NYC. She loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You might be a doorknob! Or three baked potatoes!
You might be a bag of hard green tomatoes!
Or worse than all that- why, you might be a WASN'T!
A WASN'T has no fun at all. No, he doesn't.
A WASN'T just isn't. He just isn't present.
But you- you ARE YOU! And now, isn't that pleasant?
Today you are you! That is truer than true!
There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
Shout loud, "I am lucky to be what I am!
Thank goodness I'm not just a clam or a ham!
Or a dusty old jar of sour gooseberry jam!
I am what I am! That's a great thing to be!
If I say so myself, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!"

On Saturday we celebrated Caden's first birthday - and his first Valentine's Day. Thanks to everyone who celebrated with us - in person or it spirit. Caden didn't take much interest in his cake, and needed a little help with his candles. Luckily, it was Jen's birthday too - so she helped Caden blow out the candles. Happy birthday, Jen!
It was a first for mommy, too - baking a cake! Now, I can't say it went as smoothly as I would have liked - but you would never have been able to tell by looking at the finished product that the night before, about a fourth of the cake ended up on the bottom of the oven! :) I have to give a special note of appreciation to Karen who not only helped me 'fix' the troubled cake, but also lent all of her baking tools, and decorating tips, and sprinkles and food coloring. I think I'll hang up my oven mittens (err, mitts?) until his second birthday!
