Catching up on tags!

And the topic says it all. Go read on, you might be tagged!

From Daphne:

1. Post your photo wearing red, may it be a red top, bottom, the least would be red accessories if you hate wearing red… If you can’t find one, you still have an option…. Either post your Significant Other’s photo or your child’s photo, if you have one. Of course, they should be wearing red.

2. Let us know the reason why you were wearing red that particular day. Was it your birthday? Is red your fave color or was it the shirt that you first saw in your closet that day?

No particular reason why I was wearing red that day. I just remember that I loved how airy the shirt was, and since it was a really warm day, the shirt was perfect.

3. Tag 3 people close to your heart. By the way, they have to be in your blogroll. No cheating heart please.

Meeya. Tintin. Mari.

4. Once you’re tagged, please keep it going – just for this month. Just to remind you not to cheat: tag 3 people close to your heart =)

*****From Macing:

1. Watch the video first and you could go over the lyrics below. (EDIT: The video has long been removed from YouTube so just go through the lyrics below. It was sung by Nick Lachey.)

i wish i could tell you the things i never got to chance too.
i wish i was with you now to see you smile again.
i wish we had more time, but time goes by so fast.
a moment comes and then a moment passes by, in a blink of an eye.
and if i had one wish…

i wouldn’t ask for money.
i wouldn’t ask for fame.
i wouldn’t ask for the power to make this world change.
if i could have one thing,
that one thing that i would choose
is one more ordinary day with you.
with you.

i wish i could see you.
here where my arms could reach you.
i wish i could let you know how much you’ve touched my life.
maybe a little time is all the time we get.
the words belong to say are the words that go unsaid.
you can’t go back again, but if i had one wish

i wouldn’t ask for money.
i wouldn’t ask for fame.
i wouldn’t ask for the power to make this world change.
if i could have one thing,
that one thing that i would choose
is one more ordinary day.
just one more ordinary day….with you.
with you.

2. Answer the question Mitch Albom throws on Oprah : “How would you spend one more day, with someone you loved and lost?”

I’d spend that day with my late paternal grandmother. I never got the chance to meet her as she died way before I was born. So technically, I can’t spend one “more” day with her as we never did spend a day together. Still, if I could spend one day of my life with someone who’s passed on, I’d like to meet her. I’d ask her stories about my Dad – how he was as a kid, about my aunts and uncles, about their home. It would be lovely, lovely.

Who’s tagged? Anyone who got sentimental with Mitch Albom’s question.

Hi! I'm Toni Tiu, and I've been blogging at at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.
