The Easter Angel on "American Idol"
Happy Easter! Here are a couple of the pictures I took of Kat, Matt and Gabe for Easter. This year I thought it would be neat to have Gabriel sleeping in the pictures- you know, little angel-Easter ect... I didn't let him nap that day and he was ready to hit the hay by the time we got to the park. I had visions of Katherine cradling him and what pretty pictures they would make. All my ideas for pictures usually look great, but with Gabriel -as usual- things are unpredictable. He is really too heavy at this point for Katherine to hold for long and although she did manage for a bit, he kept turning his head around where I couldn't see him. I think I still took some good pictures but I wonder if this is just my opinion. I KNOW how Gabriel is. I know how he talks non-stop and hits ect... You see, I have a personal LIMO WINDOW in my mind. When I have had ENOUGH my mind rolls up the window. He can sit and yell, slap, and hit me and I seem oblivious to it. I have to remind myself that not everyone has a LIMO WINDOW for Gabriel. Because even though I can function ABOVE his shenanigans, most people can't get past the things he's doing at that moment to concentrate on anything else. So maybe these pictures of the children are like Picasso art, you like it but you just can't get past the look on Gabriel's face.
Someone from University of South Florida came to the house a couple of days ago and had me to answer a bunch of questions about Gabriel's behavior. They are doing a study on children with disabilities like Gabriel's whose behavior is similar to that of Al Qaida terrorists (destructive and mad just because they WANNA BE) and they, so far, have been successful in correcting these behaviors. They asked me questions like, "If your child eats green eggs and ham and sings the anthem will he/she jump up and down and rap like MC Hammer?" I answered MOST DEFINITELY YES! Anyway Gabriel put on a little show for the man that came. He sang, "White Wedding" by Billy Idol, Wanna Be, and The Sugarhill Gangs "Rappers Delight". Oh, and how could I forget Boy George's "Do you really want to hurt me". He learned most of these songs off "The Wedding Singer" movie. The man commented that he wished he had his video camera, which MADE ME THINK. The next time AMERICAN IDOL is in town for audition's I should take Gabriel. If the weird Chinese guy could sing so bad and get a label THEN so could Gabe. Then I really could get a LIMO WINDOW. Note to Simon: Be nice! He spits and hits without REGARD...
