Pumpkin Patch

Thomas loves to do craft , especially in the pumpkin patch. We got several pumpkins during weekend and he couldn't wait for curving them.

He draw on the pumpkins and I help him to curving it and he also put some little candles inside the pumpkin and made a real nice lighted pumpkin.

He got some pumpkin seeds from school and wanted to plan it in the backyard. I promised to him to do some more this coming weekend with him.

First Time Played In The Front Of Judge

Thomas went to a music festival sponsored by Plano Music Teacher Association on Sunday and he played 'Up and down the keyboard' in the front of two judges.

He was so cool and calm without our presence. We watched him playing from outside the room. He looked so adorable while he dressed up.

After his playing he told me that one question that the judge asked him " how many beat in a quart note ? " he told me that he said 'one beat'.

I am so proud of him. It doesn't matter how good he played. I was amazed that he was so calm and confident because I didn't even know this festival was like this I thought it's more like a recital. He did so good.

Forever Young

很喜欢Rod Steward 的这首歌，特别是歌词：

May the good lord be with you
Down every road you roam
And may sunshine and happiness
Surround you when you’re far from home
And may you grow to be proud
Dignified and true
And do unto others
As you’d have done to you
Be courageous and be brave
And in my heart you’ll always stay
Forever young, forever young
Forever young, forever young

May good fortune be with you
May your guiding light be strong
Build a stairway to heaven
With a prince or a vagabond
And may you never love in vain
And in my heart you will remain
Forever young, forever young
Forever young, forever young
Forever young Forever young

And when you finally fly away
I'll be hoping that I served you well
For all the wisdom of a lifetime
No one can ever tell

But whatever road you choose
I’m right behind you, win or lose
Forever young, forever young
Forever young ,forever young
Forever young, forever young
For, forever young, forever young

What'd You Want To Be When You Grow Up?

"Mom , can I graduate from POPCS ? "
"Yes , you may"
"After graduated from Prince of Peace I want to be a teacher at POPCS. "
"That's awesome idea. How come ?"
" I saw Mac's mom today , she is a teacher at Prince of Peace and she always has her smile on her face. "
" Ann... I like your idea. "

I've Got Peace Like A River

"I've got peace like a river;
I've got peace like a river;
I've got peace like a river in my soul;

I've got love like an ocean;
I've got love like an ocean;
I've got love like an ocean in my soul;

I've got joy like a fountain;
I've got joy like a fountain;
I've got joy like a fountain in my soul;"

This is one of songs I taught them in the Team Kids'class at church. It's a beautiful song. I actually learned at the same while I was teaching them. The enthusiasm of kids were very contagious. My heart felt soft and joy.

转载-仰望星空

　　　　　　　　　　　　　
文/温家宝
　　　　　　　　　　　　　
我仰望星空，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
它是那样寥廓而深邃；　　　　　　　　　　　　　
那无穷的真理，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
让我苦苦地求索、追随。　　　　　　　　　　　　　

我仰望星空，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
它是那样庄严而圣洁；　　　　　　　　　　　　　
那凛然的正义，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
让我充满热爱、感到敬畏。　　　　　　　　　　　　　

我仰望星空，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
它是那样自由而宁静；　　　　　　　　　　　　　
那博大的胸怀，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
让我的心灵栖息、依偎。　　　　　　　　　　　　　

我仰望星空，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
它是那样壮丽而光辉；　　　　　　　　　　　　　
那永恒的炽热，　　　　　　　　　　　　　
让我心中燃起希望的烈焰、响起春雷。
