I Believe

Here is an amazing video of Peggy hearing Sunny's new song she wrote for Reflections this year.  It's called I Believe, and it's an inspiring upbeat song that is so sweet that it cuts right through Alzheimer's and smashes it to the core.  You don't have to watch the whole thing, as I know it's kind of scary to see someone in the end stages of this rotten disease, but when you see how Peggy comes alive as she hears her granddaughters voice, you'll understand why I wanted to show it to you.

Love Through Music

I know my daughter Sunny's music is special.  The girls and I were visiting Peggy, one of Sunny's songs she wrote came on the ipod.  When the song ended we saw this moving underneath the covers.  It was Peggy, she was clapping.  She was clapping!  I held my daughter and told her how special her music is, and that it can reach people, even her Nana.  The next day we found out her song she wrote for the Reflections program, "The Magic of the Moment" won the  state level and she will be representing California in the music composition category.  Her Nana knows, and even though she won't be able to be there at the special awards luncheon in San Jose, I know she will be clapping.  

Super Heros

Super heros, Sunny and Gidget not only save the day

They cheer up Nana

Along the way!

Daffodowndilly

Daffodowndilly
She wore her yellow sun-bonnet,
She wore her greenest gown;
She turned to the south wind
And curtsied up and down.
She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbour:
                                    "Winter is dead."




Sunny brought daffodils to Sunrise today.  She was wearing a yellow spring coat and bounced the yellow ball with Peggy.  Growing up I remember this was our favorite poem by A.A. Milne, I even recited it at the grade school talent show.... she didn't remember what the flowers were called when we gave them to her, 
but I did.

A St. Patrick's Day to remember

Today was a really fun day! Here are the Peggy's dancing to Bing Crosby singing Peg O' My Heart.  

And Sunny jumped in with an Irish jig all her own.
