Mommy Moments is a meme where Moms muse about motherhood and show off their kids. Joys, worries, disappointments, hopes, challenges and successes are shared. Chris hosts this meme every Friday at The Mommy Journey . Today's topic is so little . I dug through what's left of CJ's offline albums and found one I scanned last night. This is one of CJ's earliest photos. He's just hours old. The first time I looked at my trophy, I was slightly aghast: CJ looked like a lizard. So you guessed it - little, tiny everything.

Saraburi, a province near Bangkok, is abloom with sunflowers this month. The place continues to be a panorama of gold until January.

Musical Monday: Music of my Heart, NSYNC and Gloria Estefan Monday's Music Moves Me: Coward of the County, Kenny Rogers Please scroll down for Monday Mayhem Until last night after watching the film Music of the Heart, I listened but never paid attention to NYSYNC and Gloria Estefan's Music of my Heart. The lyrics are beautiful. This song moves me today. Amanda @ Bloggin with Amanda hosts Musical Monday Over at Monday's Music Moves Me there's a country music party. Well, who else to feature but my favoritest Kenny Rogers. I can't name a song of his that I don't like.
