Our forever song


If you were a kitten,
I would be your mama cat,
And I would teach you to climb trees,
And chase birds and mice

If you were a tiger cub,
I would be your mama tiger
And together we'd hunt
And roll in the sun after

If you were a baby bear,
I would be your mama bear
And I'd teach you to look for honey
And catch fish in the stream

And if you were a baby dragon,
I would be your mama dragon
And I'd teach you to spew fire
And together we'd fly in the skies

And I wish that
Forever I'd be your mommy;
I'd love you for ever and ever,
My baby human, forever.

Sometimes, when I am really sad, and my hear hurts, it's actually the crocodile who's gnawing at heart! It hurts a lot!" "Oh dear! That sounds very painful!" "It is!" I hug her at this point, hoping that that crocodile ...

How Jess Chose Tani to be her Mommy

This is a bed-time story of how Jess chose her mom over all others - with inputs from Jess while she was a toddler.  Many many moons ago, Jess used to live in Ating-a-- the Heavens, with other souls and  Taibang Mapu, the Creator of the Universe. At that time, Jess had another name, but we'll go with Jess for the sake of the story. As Jess and Taibang Mapu (TM) looked down to Malem , the Earth, all aglow with beautiful lights, Taibang Mapu pointed down and said to Jess - "Would you like to go to live on Malem for some time?" Jess - "Yes. But where on Earth?" TM showed her a picture of igloos and polar bears. TM - How about here? It's one of my favorite places - so pure and pristine, and there are Inuits and fish and penguins and polar bears. And of course, the Northern Lights! Jess - It's beautiful, TM! I fancy visiting here to see the Northern Lights. But why is it so dark even at noon? TM - That's because in this land, you have 6 m...
