Texas Flood

When life throws lemons at you, make leamonade. It's always easy to do that with my little Miss Haana. 

The state of Texas went from several years' drought to a state of evacuation due to flooding. I am deeply moved and poignant about the plight of families and people who are affected by the floods. 

But this Saturday morning as we finally caught a break in the rain, and I opened the convertible top, driving around with my little girl aiming for puddles; it felt like we were making leamonade in the rain! 

Texas Flood-

Well there's floodin down in Texas..

All of the telephone lines are down

Well there's floodin' down in Texas

All of the telephone lines are down

And I've been tryin' to call my baby

Lord and I can't get a single sound

Well dark clouds are rollin' in

Man I'm standin' out in the rain

Well dark clouds are rollin' in

Man I'm standin' out in the rain

Yeah flood water keep a rollin'

Man it's about to drive poor me insane

I've become immune to everybody telling me my little girl looks exactly like her father.  "She looks like a carbon copy of her Dad"! Heard all of that before.

But yesterday I was talking to a friend of mine and I was telling him something that happened this last week. And  I feel completely vindicated! 

Last week I had Stevie Ray Vaughn 'All your Love I Miss Loving' playing on the speakers at home, little Miss Haana was all over the place! There was moving, turning, twirling, jumping, hopping and just pure this-is-too-much-fun giggling!

She may look like her Dad and not me, but as long as she inherited love for music and appreciation for such great musicians of all times; I am good :)
