You poor little fella.

It's all right.  Big Mama's here.

You know, you're gonna need some caring for.

Now, let's see, darlin', you need ...



So, three wishes.

I want them to be good.

Buzz Lightyear to the rescue.

May the Force be with you.

Fairy Tales can come true

But the thingamabob that does the job.

is Bibbidi bobbidi boo,

and Abracadabra, too.



And I think to myself

what a wonderful world.

There is Magic all around.

Good friends will stick with you until you are unstuck.

Now, think of the happiest things

It's the same as having wings.

All the world is made of faith,

and trust, and Pixie Dust.


Remember who you are.

Remember you're the one

who can fill the world with sunshine.

You don't lose hope, love.

Your only limit is your soul.

Ohana means family;

Where one thing falls, another grows.



The flower that blooms in adversity

is the most rare and beautiful of all.

You'll learn things you never knew you never knew.

No matter how your heart is grieving,

If you keep on believing,

The dream that you wish will come true.



There is a world where hope and dreams can last for all time.

It means no worries for the rest of your days.

The man cub must go back to the man village.

Greater love hath no one than He who lays ...



Sometimes the right path is not the easiest one.

Even miracles take a little time.

For a true hero isn't measured by the size of his strength,

but by the strength of his heart.

Come, my son.

It is time.



Son of Man, look to the sky.

Lift your spirit, set it free.

Straight from Heaven up above.

Here is a baby for you to Love.

Show them the Mercy they don't find on earth.

Lead us to the place.

Guide us with your Grace.

Give us Faith so we'll be safe.

A Mother's Prayer
Often we tell stories and use make-believe characters to help our children understand when bad things happen in the world.  But what do you say when the tragedy happens in the most magical place on earth?  What would the characters say?

Ode to Sir Lane Graves
Written on June 14, 2016 after hearing on the evening news that a two year old boy was missing at the Seven Seas Lagoon at Walt Disney World's Grand Floridian Resort. It was the eve of my son's birthday who had a near drowning experience when we were vacationing in Florida when he was little.  But the story of little Lane Graves of Elkhorn, Nebraska went beyond imagination and deeply touched the hearts of all who heard, even the beloved characters.
