Day five of being thankful

I figured for day 5 I would be thankful for something that has 5 parts. My family.

Timmy- my amazing and handsome husband. A man who loves me all the time. Bitchy happy mad sad sick or ugly....he's always on my side and there for me. Not only for me. He has a big heart and is very helpful. He works hard to support our family and then comes home and does his part around the house. I an lucky to have found such an amazing person to share my life with.

Destiny- my first born. I am so thankful to have the opportunity to be her mother. She has grown into a smart, beautiful, funny and caring young lady. She reminds me a lot of myself. Seeing her nearly grown and watching her spread her wings is tough but oh so rewarding. I also thank her.... for pathing the way for her siblings. Being the oldest is never easy I am sure. I might have had her young and started out to early.... but I would never change a thing about her, everything happens for a reason and I an glad to have brought her into this world.

Promise- my blonde one. Promise is an amazing child. Like destiny watching her grow has been amazing and I am blessed to have had the opportunity. Promise is smart and beautiful and very willing to help others. She is a middle child and has to fight for the attention she gets. She plans to be an extreme couponer and says when I am old I can shop at her house for free. She gives the best hugs.

Bailey- my boy. My only son. Bailey has been through so much in his 10 years. After knowing we could have lost him....it makes you think how important every moment can be. Bailey is a lover and a fighter. He has the kindest heart of any child I know. He loves hard and with all he has. Becoming a big brother when he was just a baby himself...he was never jealous, always helpful. He's the best son I have. I am thankful to have him here, and healthy!

Hannah- my baby. Hannah is a little sponge. She loves to soak up everything she can. She loves to learn and to help others learn too. For an 8 year old Hannah is wise beyond her years. She knows it too....which is sometimes a bit of a downfall... Hannah is a great kid. She might be a little wrapped around my finger I'll admit...but she's my baby. Forever and always.

I am really blessed beyond words for all that I currently have. A wonderful family, husband, home, and job. I really shouldn't complain as often as I do!

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.

So Whats up with my oddly normal life?

 Huh huh? Cus it seems that I am never ever updating my blog these days. I am such a sloth!  Things happen and I think how I should blog about them and then I figure they are not really so interesting if you were not here. Then I remember I blog for me, not really for someone else. I want to be able to remember things, to come back and go oh yeah... Those were the days. Or whatever. I can't do that if I don't blog it.  I am going to try to be more regular with the blogs again, even if its what I made for dinner, and  how my husband kept me up snoring. If it doesn't interest you, you don't have to read it right!? :)  So whats been going on? the kids are growing. I got contacts, I am not sure how I feel about them just yet. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes I feel like I have an eye full of hair. Sometimes I can see great with them in, and other times everything is blurrier than when I had  them out. Meanwhile I wear my scratched up glasses while ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)
