The next morning mom woke up to the sounds of little pitter patter feet coming down the stairs that she might have suspected are coming from some teenage girls in her house!  Oh Sunshine, it's going to be a very busy day today, but then again do we teenage girls ever rest? ;)

     Our day started at 3 in the morning when I woke up from a dream we were going to visit a cemetery that's not far off the 405 HI way this evening at precisely 7:30 pm.  Hey what can I say?  We are Children of the night ha-ha

     Oh Sunshine, what can I say?  I'm Astraea, the element of Air, an oracle of intuition and spirituality so when I have these dreams, we have to do what we see in my dreams, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little juvenile fun along the way, even if it might spell our own doom, ugh!  Oh, the life of a young witch ha-ha!  Anyway, we decided to wear our black skirts and blouses for this Evening's outing, ate a super early breakfast and gave Isis some time to look at the drawings I sketched in my dreams.

     When mom came down the stairs, we got her favorite coffee for her, fed her breakfast, and gave her a hug.  We told her that our counselor Lan Wu needed us to go to the cemetery with her after school and we would be home by curfew time.  "I know it's a lot to ask mom, but please have faith in us, she needs our help with the tremendous grief she has."  Our mom was super worried but had faith in us because she knew we could take care of ourselves and each other!

     After making breakfast, getting dressed, interpreting the dream I had and being children of the night, we dragged our poor tired parents outside to witness the most beautiful Sacred event that starts our day and gives up hope every day of our life!  Isis had us facing the East as she quietly said, "Family as we stand here today, we witnessed the death of yesterday's Sun, but fear not, for the Sun returns with it's sweetest gift it has for us, the gift of life returned!"  Right after she spoke the first rays of the morning sun began to rise in our direction and it was the most awe inspiring and moving experience to see!  Oh Sunshine, I know you are reading our diary right now, but when you get a chance, experience that sun rise for yourself and see why it is such a Sacred event and how it wakes your soul to the very essence of your being!

     Mom and dad were speechless of what they witnessed, because they took their mornings for granted most of their life, until this sacred day arrived; The day we all held hands as a family to begin the day as one!  We saw life, we saw inspiration, and we witnessed a miracle occur!  This beautiful glowing ball of light rose to our Earth and we were alive to see it!  This Sacred gift of life given to us each day is a constant reminder to savor every precious drop it has to offer!  Our Sun has been rising for billions of years just to let us know, that today, it rose for us to live, and live life well!

     "Wow Isis is this what you see every day?"  "Yes dad, every day and I'm so glad you got to see it too you don't know how much this means to me!"  Isis gave her dad a hug and it was a wonderful feeling for him to finally have a family to love!

     Astraea had a revelation during this special time and proudly said to everyone "Hey you know what this means?"  everyone said, "What Astraea” and she responded We get to be children of the Day.  Mom and dad laughed while they protested "but weren’t we children of the night? Astraea gave them the look "Yes, but we can be children of the day too Ha-ha!"  and mom asked Astraea "How are we going to be kids when we have to work today, and you have to go to school?"  Astraea said, "That's easy mom, because today is LEFT HAND day!" Then dad laughed and asked Astraea "Hey wait a minute, aren't you left-handed?"  "Yes dad!"  Astraea said while batting her pretty little eye lashes "Now you get to see my world and maybe teach you friends to see life from a left-handed perspective!  Astraea said while smiling and dad said, "It's a deal let me get the car keys and I'll take you girls to school."  Astraea laughed and teased her dad when he started the car.  "No dad, you have to start the car with your left hand ha-ha!"  and dad laughed back when he saw how difficult it was to start the car with his left hand "I think I'm beginning to see that life isn't very fair to you left-handed people!"  and everyone laughed as he drove them to school.
