When I think of blue, my first thought is that my two favorite people in the world have blue eyes. (My other favorite person in the world has green eyes with brown specs. Sorry daddy - green was last week.) One of my mom's eyes is kind of green so we've always joked that when someone compliments my eye color I always say it came from my mom's blue eye. It's amazing how many people out there now think my mom only has one eye.
I also think of that song Blue Christmas that Elvis sang where the backup singers did that wooo-ooo-oo-oo-oo thing on the word blue. Do you remember that? There was a girl I went to high school with who thought that was so funny. She's the one who ate ground coffee dry, right out of the tin.
When I feel blue, the Bear often buys me flowers because he's the BEST BEAR EVER. Stargazer lilies are my favorite, sans the messy orange bits. Orange was several weeks ago - maybe I'm making up for lost weeks with a rainbow.
I also think of this teething ring when I think of blue. It belonged to Phoenix but she didn't like it so Laura inherited it as a hand-me-down. I don't think she likes it much either. Maybe it's because she's not using it right.
Yes, I'm a terrible mommy. Look away.
I'm also blue that I've not thought of a reason for Steve the electrician to come back yet. Mmmm....Steve the electrician....
What? Where am I? Oh.
Okay, so that's all I've got for blue. I'm sure I'll think of an awe-inspiring blue post tomorrow. This will just have to do for now.

Hi I love the dog photo. I am blue as it is cold here and supposed to be SUMMER I dont call 13 summer
great post thanks
What beautiful eyes your mom has! The dog looks so cute.
I think this is a perfectly good blue post :) It's so YOU!
Those blue eyes are stunning. I wish I could have blue eyes...but then I'd be the freak Chinese girl with blue eyes...and I don't like to be called freaky...
Laura is becoming cuter every time you put up pictures of her. I love her shiny fur. I wish my hair could be that nice and shiny too.
Too bad you couldn't sneak a photo of Steve the electrician. I'm really curious as to how incredibly delicious he must be.
I always loved blue eyes. When I was young, I wanted to buy those contact lenses that changed your eye color. Lucky.
Beautiful blue eyes yr Mom has - and the dog is so cute too! What's his name?
Love yr blog - Happy Rainbow Blue,
LOLA:)
btw My Rainbow Blue link is here for you!
I love star-gazer lilies, too, but I'm a little allergic to them.
=)
I request a photo of Steve the electrician juxtaposed with one of your piano teacher.
Possible?
haha!! loving the teething ring :D And stargazer lilies are amazing...gorgeous shot!(my son was sniffing ours the other day, and got a bunch of the orange stuff all over his face...it's amazing how it can look just like dried blood (kinda freaked out there for a sec ;D)
I have some blog-love for you, if you're interested...

Thanks for the laugh! That photo of the doggie with the teething ring is hilarious!
That puppy photo is priceless. Thanks so much for sharing it. I love it.
What a lovely post!!! From the blue eyes to that sweet pooch with the teething ring, it made me feel wonderful!
At 65, I've done it! My poetry book - Life's Journey by Carmen Henesy - is out on Amazon!
( Poems about the things that have been important to me in my journey through life, some humorous, some sad, some that may have meaning to you as well )

Check it out and read some of the reviews!
I'm Laura's much cuter than Steve the electrician. Keep him in your dreams if you have to but save your l-o-v-e for Phoenix and Laura! Have a blessed weekend...
Pretty blue eyes and the dog, what a clown.
My hubs and my lil' dude both have gorgeous baby blues...thus, blue is one of my very favorite colors!
I just have to ask if Phoenix is jealous of Laura, who is getting an awful awful lot of blog time!
That picture of Laura is so sweet. She is obviously a very good natured dog, but I suspect the teething ring wouldn't last 5 minutes used the right way!
Paige, so nice to see you linked here.
That is the cutest picture of Laura.
And I am still chuckling over your Mom having one eye.
Do you know you can take your scissors and cut the orange stamens of your lilies over the sink. It makes a lot less mess and they don't end up staining clothes or linens. You probably already know that.
Thank you for linking to Rainbow Summer School this week.
We're all really glad to see you back!
A+
I am a sucker for a cute dog pic. How precious is that face?
