Happy Mothers day!
Before i knew it i had this beautiful bundle of joy in my arms (as you see below), she was perfect in every single way. I couldn't stop looking at her, and couldn't bring myself to not be near her. I was so proud of my precious baby, and was so afraid if i blinked or walked away even for a minute that this dream would be over. I remember spending the first week, really not getting any sleep at all. Not because the new important job i had kept me from doing so, but because i just had to watch her breath. I had to know she was ok, and was afraid i would miss something.
Now we fast forward 5 years later, and i have this gorgeous little girl as you see below. She has taught me more than i thought i could even learn, and showed me how to love unconditionally. She has of course gave me a run for my money, and had her rough patches with colic and health issues along the way. But it's because of her that i earned my wings in the mommy club, i know what true love is because of Makenna. I also know what it's like to truly be exhausted, to never have a private moment, to be truly selfless, and want another person to have everything life can offer before i have anything for myself. I watch her grow and morph into this little person everyday, and i swear i wish i could just hit the stop button. It's going so fast and i find myself afraid i will miss something all over again, the days go by so fast. I know i haven't always been the most perfect mom, because well we all make mistakes. But i always get back up swinging, and never will i give up fighting to make your life a million times better than i can ever imagine.
To all you mommy's out there! thank you and give yourself a hug. We are the makers of the future!
Talk to your little munchkins...
Go kiss your babies, and make sure they know how much they are loved. Be the best you possible, and remember your children see and feel more than you think. Be proud of everything you say and do, and make sure you go to bed at night with no regrets.
I make this look GOOD!
I am the type of person whom is always evaluating my house hold, and the way that things are done. This includes the way i handle relationships, and how i respond to others. If i see a negative trend starting, than i go to work to find a better way to handle it. I have been laughed at a bit, because i am always changing things up. But what they do not see is how it helps to keep us moving in a positive direction, by never allowing behavior or actions that could cause problems get out of hand. We are constantly growing as a family, and not afraid of change. Yes my changes even go down to the movement of furniture, which is usually done because i am bored with the way things work. If i change even the appearance of things in my house, it helps to re-energize us. It's much easier to not fall into a slump, when things are always new and exciting.
Well it's time for me to finish cleaning up my yummy treats, and get my house cleaned. It's a tough job sometimes, being the one in charge of keeping everyone healthy. But it's my job and i wouldn't change it for the world! I am a proud mommy and house wife, and i take my job seriously each and everyday. But of course as you might have noticed, i strive to always do it with a sense of humor and a smile on my face.

What friday night means to a mom....
Once upon a time the arrival of friday night, means no stress, no work, sleeping till noon, and partying with friends. At this time of the night I was in route to a club or party, I had no baby hips and was dressed to impress. My dolce and gabana perfume leaving a trail as I walk through the doors, the night was mine to enjoy. Now at 32 the only party im attending is the occasional birthday party, and friday night means a repeat of thursday lol. The most excitement I encounter is, grocery shopping by myself. Heck most days I feel accomplished if I went tinkle, and showered without an audience. Not exactly party central, but our priorities shift. Suddenly most of the stuff I considered important, are so very irrelevant to me now. So while a great portion of the world prepares to party, I will be watching the peaceful princess that is my night sleep. Tomorrow if im lucky i'll sleep past 8 am, and be thankful im not sporting sunglasses and a hangover migraine.
Mommy's priorities are right where they should be, and if I ever question their importance I know a 5 year old whom will jolt me into reality.
Smiling on the edge of insanity
Ok i seemed to have gone off subject a bit, my smiling on the very edge of insanity. This comes on behalf of any of the above, or from a long list of other fun adventures. However today i was particularly referring to the fact that, i never have a moment to think. I literally feel like it is never quiet, and i never can actually just be in my own head with my own thoughts. My mind is always in the midst of chaos, and some how i am expected to cook, clean, make appointments, do important errands, remember to tell someone of something important i was supposed to remember, and well if i am lucky try to do something i really want to do (funny i know). Today was no different than most days, but i felt like i was in a video game. My objective was to talk and actually be HEARD, without being interrupted or ignored. I actually thought about putting on a cape, and going into attack mode. However... reality soon crept in and i realized, that even in a cape no one would listen lol. In fact they would probably join in, and put on capes of their own. At that point what i had to say is long gone, and we (hubby, and daughter) are rolling around in the living room making light saber noises... and mommy's mind has went up in a cloud of smoke. This most definitely puts me on the edge of insanity, smiling of course because i love my life and my husband and daughter. I would not trade them or it for anything in the world, but it does not mean i have to be sane while enjoying it right?
Ok that is all for tonight, because sadly... this one blog has taken me a few hours to write because I've been interrupted! Now i am off to find my cape, and attack my bed and HOPE for a good nights sleep =) Till tomorrow my beautiful friends.
