You know, as a mother of 2 boys, you often wonder who (or what!) they are going to bring home . . . . . a dead rat, an injured dog, an old car . . . . . or a sweet young lady.
Well we have been blessed 2 times . . . . yes this is the second time around for us to have Brittany in our lives. And with Brady being so much like his daddy (once he gives his heart it is for a long time) we figure she is around for a bit!
This young lady has a soft heart, a beautiful voice, an innocence and randomness that makes me smile when i think of things she has said and done . . . . and i really hope her parents realize what a gem they have with her.
She recently took part in a school program, where her class visited seniors at the Bennet Centre in GTown. She took to it straight away, fell in love with her lady "Lillian" and has written a song for her that is going to perform Thursday night (which i will be sure to to go, support her and take photos). This program from the school was the first of its kind and Readers Digest got wind of it, and is now going to be featured in an upcoming edition.
Not only does she do that, she is also in a musical cabaret in early 2011, and has landed a solo part - i will also be going to see her in that. And not only does she do that, she is also a great painter and artist.
I think she has found her calling - her eyes light up when she talks about Lillian - she needs to be working with our older generation, she needs to be singing to them, painting with them, laughing with them, and making them feel loved. And with a heart as big as hers, she will make a difference in the golden years of their lives. I see her working in this field in the future years.
So to Brittany, thank you for making me smile, making Brady smile, being a part of our lives. You are such a joy to be around - you make me laugh and look at the small things in life with a new energy.
We love you kiddo.
