I have also always wanted real life to be a FAIRY TALE

This story looks like a fairy tale in the making: I want all of SUSAN BOYLE'S dreams to come true. Based on what I have read she was teased as a child for her learning disability (she was deprived of oxygen at birth) and frizzy hair, after her father died she took care of her widowed mother until two years ago (she's 47). When she takes the stage the audience starts laughing and the judges start smirking. It is awesome when the first few notes come out of her mouth and their snarkiness turns to awe...Simon Cowell looks like he's falling in love. The audience starts applauding after only a few seconds. Ooohh...I love it! It is so worth the seven minutes and eight seconds. I can't embed it because embedding has been disabled. But CLICK HERE for the link...so worth it.

I'll write about what is going on with us soon...mostly baseball. And more baseball. And more baseball.

Loved it! I got teary eyed. What a great lesson in not judging a book by its cover!
