I wanted to share a small window into Chassitty "Chas" and into our relationship by posting some of her communications while we're away.
On my first day of school for the LGO program (June, 2009), she sent me this video message via OoVoo (I apologize for the Seattle glare!):

Today, on my first day of Orientation for the formal Sloan MBA program, I received this email:

Hey mommy,
Since you haven't been emailing me besides information that's important, I wanted to talk to you.
I just wanted to say that i love you and miss you so much and that
you are the best mommy in the whole world!!! Even my friends tell me that, every time I have a sleepover they always end up telling me that you are the best mom in the world and that they wish their mom was just as cool and pretty and nice as you!
IF YOU'RE OUT ON THE ROAD
FEELING LONELY AND SO COLD
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS CALL MY NAME
AND I WILL BE THERE ON THE NEXT TRAIN
WHERE YOU LEAD
I WILL FOLLOW YOU
ANYWHERE THAT YOU TELL ME TO
IF YOU NEED
IF YOU NEED ME TO BE WITH YOU
I WILL FOLLOW
WHERE YOU LEAD!!!
our song
TE QUIERO TANTO TANTO TANTO.......
our other song
~Chassitty
The first song excerpt is the theme song to the show "Gilmore Girls" (Official Link), a show we've been watching since she was a baby and a show whose characters (Lorelai and Rory) we relate to.
The second song referenced is "Te Quiero Tanto" by Onda Vaselina and is a song I sang to my daughter when she was a baby. As she got older, I stopped singing the song, but one day, she heard it on TV, connected the memory, and we've sung it together for fun since then.
You'll read more about Chas later!
