The Pancake Chronicles
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."
Rusty Ryan - Ocean's Twelve

Oh my goodness Colleen! Is that you??? You are so adorable!!!
That is the cutest picture ever! Could win a contest....
Guess that goes to show me--you were just born cute. It's not something you acquired later in life. :-D
Ok, so if that isn't the cutest picture I have seen! Love it! The talent started that early I guess hey. I so remember that piano. Oh the memories...
On a side note: Colleen, I saw your brother John briefly today at Wal-Mart. We said a few words across the store as we stood in different line ups.
That is the sweetest picture! It looks like you have angel wings. :)
Yes it's me, Bets. Thanks! My mom took pictures from the side, too. I guess I was hitting notes and then singing them - apparently on-key too according to my mom, that is. (HI MOM! I know you're reading this!)
Thanks, Son! It kinda warms my heart, too when I look at it. :)
T-bean - you say the kindest things at the right time. Thank you.
Hewwo Shawi - this picture makes me giggle. I want to frame it with a big wide white border and hang it over the piano. I just haven't gotten around to it. COOL! You saw my little bro! It makes me miss him that you can see him so easily. Was his cute wifey with him?
Hi Jillian! I'm amazed you saw my wings! Most people miss those because I've become very adept at hiding them. :)
Colleen, you are adorable!
I meant to ask you, was that you in the previous post too, in the mailbox?? I thought that perhaps it was, but was not sure? Do tell - was it??
I love this picture, Colleen!
Brilliance on display.
Love you
Hi Koala! Thank you! No, it wasn't me in the mailbox. :( I found the picture on Flickr and thought the picture suited my #3 thing about me so I stuck it in!
Ruthie! I'm glad you like it. I know it's one of my very favourite pictures. And you are kind. And I love you, too.
Kawaii!!

Hi Colleen. How've you been? Sorry I've been in 'hiding'...well not really. Staying away from the computer is what I've been doing because the computer and I will be very well acquainted for a few weeks starting Sunday!
Hey Acie! I have missed you around here but I'm SO glad to hear you've been having fun out and about in the real world. :)
How are things? and your heart?
any questions?
