Nice Weather for Ducks

Credit goes to Lemon Jelly for the title. Why the eff did you guys split up?! Namesake track seemed to be a good post-typhoon song. We've been listening to the kick-ass BBC Live Lounge rendition over family dinner the past few days. I share the song with you here. No ifs, no buts, no fees... download na. You're welcome Lemon Jelly fans!

During this past week of rainy, gloomy weather, Bear made this painting "because I miss the sun".

Our 5-year-old painter also really likes this Lemon Jelly song. Maybe because when he was wee-months-old I used to play it (a lot) while nursing him or just dancing around the room while I carried him. I remember Baby Bear giggling when I made my funny voice singing, all the ducks are swimming in the waaa-ter! So here... just a little electro-pop ditty to welcome the sun...

Chicha is also glad Mr. Sun came out today so they can go back to school. Good morning sunshine!

Mr. Sun kisses the flowers somewhere outside our home, as we all get back to work and school and outdoor play.

After a week reeling from a climate change calamity, there is still a lot to be done to overcome loss and tragedy - not to mention stop global warming! But life goes on... and we can still count some of our blessings.
