Talking to the Moon by Bruno Mars

I know you're somewhere out there

Somewhere far away

I want you back

I want you back


My neighbors think
I'm crazy

But they don't understand

You're all I have

You're all I have



(Chorus)


At night when the stars
light up my room

I sit by myself


Talking to the Moon

Try to get to you

In hopes you're on
the other side

Talking to me too
or am I a fool

Who sits alone
talking to the moon

I'm feeling like I'm famous

The talk of the town

They say
I've gone mad

Yeah
I've gone mad

But they don't know
what I know


Cause when the
sun goes down

Someone's talking back

Yeah,
they're talking back



Chorus 



Ahh Ahh,
Ahh
Do you ever hear me calling?

Ahh Ahh,
Ahh
Cause every night
I'm talking to the moon

Still trying to get to you


In hopes you're on
the other side
talking to me too

Or am I a fool
who sits alone
talking to the moon, ohhhhh


I know you're somewhere out there

Somewhere far away

Sharpie (Hard-Boiled) Eggs


So easy, but so effective. All you need to make these fancy Easter eggs is a black Sharpie and a hard-boiled egg. You might want to review our lessons on Zentangles and line drawings for some great patterns. A hard-boiled egg should not be left at room temperature for longer than 2 hours, and goes bad after a week in the fridge. Happy Easter!

****************************************************

Here are some eggs made at home by Georgia and Nicole. Great work girls, and thanks for sharing!
