Crying Sky Blue

Hm, I will just have to say this in Turkish, to convey the mood, for a change:):
Bizim burali (burali derken Baltimore/Washington'lu) bir jazz pianist Sean Lane'in Crying Sky Blue bestesi'nin hikayesi cok hosuma gitti, siz de hic diilse demo'larini dinleyin istedim. Hani firtina olur ve gokyuzu mor mavi bir renk olur ve ilk yagmur damlasi dusmeden hemen once bi an olur, sessizlik olur, sonra yagmur damlalari bir bir dusmeye baslar, iste oradan baslatmis, ve dinlerseniz duyacaksiniz yagmurun basladigini, arttigini, bu kadar guzel bir yagmur bestesi dinlememistim. Sean Lake'i dinleyen bir ressam toplulugu bu parcayi dinleyince, "Bu muthis guzel, adi ne bestenin?" demisler, o da "Crying Sky Blue." demis, sonra da "Eminim hepsi kosa kosa studyolarina gitmistir o ani resme dokmek icin." demis icinden.....

What to say? Just woke up and stole 5 minutes for reflection. And I am realizing increasingly that my fast-track life is leaving less and less space or what do they call it? Me time. :) We have lots of mommy and me time though. :) And Lara has grown up so much. She is talking. Saying mu for muz, lma for elma, porrrakal for portakal, taaatan for tavsan, parka for parka (as in hadi parka gidelim, when i comes to going out she gets it right), and popomtom for hipopotam....and anne for anne. Yes she is finally calling me anne. And herself? Yaya!
