Proud mama

Often times I just blog away about things on my nerves ...seldom do I think to blog about better things.  So today I'm blogging some positive things...about my beautiful children.

First my birthday girl,  hannah. I always give my kids money for thier birthdays. Hannah knows things are tight right now,  and told me she was okay with not getting her birthday cash. 11 years but far more mature.

Then Destiny ... were having a "cookie party " on Sunday and I was telling my friend that I was going to have everyone bring some powdered sugar and maybe food color to help out. Destiny went to the store...bought a pack of both (and me a diet coke).

Bailey has been struggling in school...and mentioned that he'd like to stay after class for tutoring. Daddy said he'd look into that for him....but today he rode his bike to school and stayed after for tutoring all on his own. He also got all his missing assignments turned in.

Promise. Well Promise is usually just an awesome kid. She's been babysitting my friends little boy,  going to church,  taking pre AP classes... she always is pretty low maintenance always says thank you and tells me she loves me.

So even though this time of year is stressful.  Bills are high, pay is low,  hours are being cut...regardless of that. I have a pretty awesome family!

not everything i say requires a response.

 first off let me say, my shift key is not working so nothing is uppercase today. so sorry.   the new chick at work is driving me...crazy. short drive i know but even so. like seriously. crazy. she argues with everything, butts into any conversation started without her in it, and denies anything being done wrong. she's new, making a mistake is going to happen. if you do it, fess up, and get on. your not in trouble. shut up. quit denying it just say ok, and get on with life. it does not always require a response. just do it. or don't do it, whatever fits in the time. then i have customers like the lady today. she and her friends all got their pizzas. when i walked by i stopped to check on the table. i noticed that the lady was asking her friend to sniff her slice of pizza, of which she had taken one bite of. i asked if everything was okay 'it tasted funny when i took a bite' she says 'here taste it," she tries to get her friends to taste it, one sniffs and ...

some days

 The kids are just cute. I know I normally talk about how bratty they are. but today, well today they were just cute. All of them, even Destiny. Believe it or not.  Hannah came down the little car line to get into the van and she was smiling and so happy, and so dang cute. Promise had a friend over part of the day Bailey played mario and Destiny told me my shirt looked like a hobo shirt (it was Tims)  Today was just a good day. not sure what made it that way. the kids mostly got a long, there were a few SHUTUPS tossed out but for the most part it was pretty peaceful. I wish more days, were like today.  I went to Lowe's today to get a shelf thing to put in our laundry room. Its so exciting! TO think a shelf would be nice here, and then think YEAH, I'll put one in. See we can do that, cus we OWN our house! :) Its awesome!  I got a few more seeds today. Sweet baby peppers, zucchini and squash too. Yum. I really hope something grows this year. I am SO sore f...

Love the one your with.

 My mom and I were talking and lately her relationship is what I guess we could call complicated. During our conversation she stopped and asked me "Are you happy with Tim?" without hesitation I answered "yes".She told me that she knew he loved me and she was so glad I could be happy.  Later I was thinking about it. I have wondered is he "it" is he the one. How can I be sure, how is anyone ever sure? We have been together for almost 9 years now. Granted we've had our issues, but every night he comes home to me, and every morning he's next to me in bed. He loves me, he provides for me, and I love him and provide for him. Together we are raising four wonderful children.  Do I still get butterflies when he walks though the door? Well, honestly, no. Do I still miss him the moment he walks away... Again no, sometimes I am more than happy to see him leave for the evening and go to work... Does that mean I love him any less than I did when our love was...
