Elle a l'habiletée de me donner de la bonne énergie! Aussi, elle se récharge au soleil pour pouvoir m'aider le soir et m'emporter au pays des rêves."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Ah oui!" exprima maman. "Ca me semble une merveilleuse roche!" Maman lui donna des bises et de grosses caresses. Calèbe se rendorma très vite pour pouvoir rêver de sa belle roche magique bleue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cette nuit là, maman s'est mise à chercher partout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dans le sous-sol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dans la cuisine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dans le garage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Mais ou dont est-ce que j'ai vu une telle roche?" se demanda-t-elle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Finalement!" Au plus profond de sa garde-robe, maman ouvra sa boite spéciale et trouva sa &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;belle roche magique bleue&lt;/span&gt; d'enfance que sa mère lui avait donnée à l'âge de Calèbe.  Elle souria et le lendemain...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Calèbe s'éveilla excité en criant de joie; "Maman! Maman! Ce n'était pas un rêve du tout! Regarde!" Calèbe montra la belle roche magique bleue qu'il a trouvé dessus son oreiller.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maman le regarda, souria et dit; "Mais oui!

I have been severely preoccupied with some courses which needed my devout attention.  I am sure you all can relate to the feeling of accomplishment once you reach a goal that has been long overdue. :) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am proud to report that I am now a certified Relaxation Therapist and am ready to re-ease into the world of chronological writing! This is an essential part of myself that I had to neglect and I now realize was a great part of stress release for myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay tuned for new emerging poetry that has been collecting dust on my desk.
