Saudade Grande das Pequenas

Saudades das minhas pequenas...
Que já não são tão mais pequenas assim.
Saudade das grandes.
Saudades de tempos de estabilidade.
Saudade das conversas inocentes com elas, das brincadeiras na neve, na piscina.
De assitir 50 vezes Lilo & Stich, Pocahontas ou The Grinch no mesmo final de semana.

Saudade do amor puro, sincero e constante que só uma criança pode dar...

And right now I might write some words in English, just to feel closer to them.

My dearst children, your Pat misses you a whole lot. Big Time.
Now, I have my puppy to keep my restless heart warm, since we are far from eachother.
And if God allows me, I might go see you very soon.
I was very happy to know that you girls are growing to be awesome gronw ups.
But that's no news to me.
I knew it, all the way.

I love you, still, now and forever.
Your friend.
Pat

London Brigde
(Nursery Song)
"London Bridge is falling down,
Falling down, falling down.
London Bridge is falling down,
My fair lady!

Build it up with iron bars
,Iron bars, iron bars.
Build it up with iron bars,
My fair lady!

Iron bars will bend and break,
Bend and break, bend and break.
Iron bars will bend and break,
My fair lady!

Build it up with needles and pins,
Needles and pins, needles and pins.
Build it up with needles and pins,
My fair lady!

Pins and needles rust and bend,
Rust and bend, rust and bend.
Pins and needles rust and bend,
My fair lady!

Build it up with penny loaves,
Penny loaves, penny loaves.
Build it up with penny loaves,
My fair lady!

Penny loaves will tumble down,
Tumble down, tumble down.
Penny loaves will tumble down,
My fair lady!

Build it up with silver and gold,
Silver and gold, silver and gold.
Build it up with silver and gold,
My fair lady!

Gold and silver I’ve not got,
I’ve not got, I’ve not got.
Gold and silver I’ve not got,
My fair lady!
