Why not ............. sing a rainbow?




Hi there, it's been awhile. I was enjoying my time doing nothing. How about you?

Today I am sharing with you a song that has a lot of meaning to me.

It's called 'I can sing a rainbow.'

This song is a favourite from my childhood. It was the first tune I sang to my baby.

If you do not know the tune check out this version by Delta Goodrem.

I love to sing this song with full voice and a smile on my face. Anytime, anywhere. I sing the song from memory. Here are the lyrics I like to sing.......

Red and yellow and pink and green
Purple and orange and blue
I can sing a rainbow
Sing a rainbow
Sing a rainbow too

Listen with your heart
Listen with your heart
And sing everything you see
You can sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing along with me

Red and yellow and pink and green
Purple and orange and blue
You can sing a rainbow
Sing a rainbow 
Sing a rainbow too

Whenever I sing this song I feel pure joy. No matter what - my mood will instantly shift.

So I invite you on this Wednesday to join me in singing this delightful tune. 100%. I would love to hear about any songs that bring sunshine to your day.

Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud - Maya Angelou

Why not ........ #fmsphotoaday?




Hello there and welcome to another Wednesday challenge!

If you are a bit of a social media junkie you have probably heard about Fat Mum Slim's photo a day challenge. If you have no idea what I am talking about read on.....

Over two years ago an Aussie blogger Chantelle Ellem aka Fat Mum Slim started a photo challenge apparently for one month as a creative project for herself and her blog readers. Almost immediately the whole virtual world caught on and now over 13 million photos have been shared across the various social media platforms.




How do you join this photo challenge?

Get a copy of the monthly prompts (from the blog or @fatmumslim on Instagram) and start snapping! If you want you can join the rest of the world and post along. Or you can simply take a photo each day inspired by the daily prompt and do with them what you want! Make a slide show, a hard copy album, a poster collage, fridge magnets - anything!

You can also get an app Little Moments (designed by Chantelle and others) which not only sends you a reminder of the daily photo prompt, it gives you heaps of fun tools to make your photos extra pretty.

Can you take a photo everyday for one month? If you do please let me know where you post your photos. Enjoy!

Every photo you take communicates something about a moment in time - a brief slice of time of where you were, who you were with, and what you were doing - Kevin Systrom
