    my 14 YO daughter will be performing a solo in her high school's winter pops concert.... featuring the choirs and bands as well as individual talent....

    she wrote music and lyrics, a sweet melody on the piano.....there are a few bands at the local "punk shows" that do a cover and when her papa and i first heard it we thought>>> d@mn, that even sounds good distorted!

    note: none of the mentioned "friends" are from the cong, where she was brutalized by the "it" girls as she has had weight issues since being on steroids for asthma when she was younger

    14 hour day

    It’s been a long day
    Filled with friends and laughs and shoes
    It’s been a long day
    With a couple of friends I don’t want to lose

    [Chorus]
    There’s no one
    I’d rather spend
    A fourteen hour
    Day with than you
    I swear it’s true
    You mean so much to me
    I love you
    I swear it’s true

    Let’s go back to my place
    The day is only half done
    We’ll walk the dogs and have a race
    Listen to music and just have fun

    [Chorus]

    We’ll go to the movies
    And we’ll sit and laugh at nothing
    Super cereal and Swiss cheese
    We’ll end the day with laughing

    [Chorus]

    It’s been a long day
    Filled with friends and laughs and shoes
    It’s been a long day
    With a couple of friends I don’t want to lose

    [Chorus]
    There’s no one
    I’d rather spend
    A fourteen hour
    Day with than you
    I swear it’s true
    You mean so much to me
    I love you
    Fourteen hour day

    just the update.....

    she wore the same hoody she was wearing when she wrote the song..... came onstage and was unable to activate the little electric keyboard ( she practices on a parlour grand at home, what can i say?) and after the band director came to start the thing, she set off rocking the keys only to have a DEAD MIKE.....

    by this time her possee was going wild and she started again and just blew everyone away..... at one point near the end she called out.... if you know the words ... sing!!!

    you better believe i was singing....... off-key and at the top of my voice and so were about 100 other peeps... .....we had called her older sister who is away at school and let her listen in via cell phone.... a real kodak kinda moment

    there's no one..... i 'd rather spend.... a 14 hour day with th-an you!!!!

    Beautiful! I am always so happy when ex JWs had the courage to let their children live without fear and guilt.
