Show Me Your Heart

The other day, Liz at the fabulous blog It's Unbeweavable tagged me in a "show me your heart" post. I had to twitter her for further clarification as to what tagging meant, and thankfully she helped me out! And then tonight, to my surprise, I was tagged and given an award by another great blog, OceanDreams. Thank you both so much for including me!

Really quick, before I "show you my heart," please be sure to check out It's Unbeweavable and OceanDreams- amazing girls with beautiful hearts and great blogs!

The tag: "with as much creativity as you can muster, show your heart in: a picture, a poem, a song (or piece of music), a phrase (or quote), an item of clothing, a place, and (just for fun) a Disney princess. If you want to join in, tag 6 more blogs."

Poem: this helped me find strength and heal my heart when I suddenly lost my Mom last year:

If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to Heaven
And bring you back again

No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No on will ever know

But know we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store

Since you’ll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you’ll always stay

Song: Who I am by Jessica Andrews. Here is a snippet of the lyrics:

I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me

And that's who I am

Phrase: If it's not broke, don't fix it. (Something I tell my OCD-self all day long!)

Item of clothing: Burberry Quilted Jacket (I have this in black, pink, and red because they are so lightweight and versatile for LA weather)

Place: My parents condo on Waikola Beach in Hawaii

Disney Princess: Sleeping Beauty, but only if I can be in this photo with Zac Efron as my prince charming! Yes, he is too young for me, and yes, my boyfriend gets irritated with my little crush, but I cant help it! Too cute :)
