Hello Memories.



One of the great things about blogging is reading one's old posts. My intentions are to print out some of the highlights and save them in a book. Of course, this is one of the many things on my to do list...that I have yet to do.

I just have one question - "Where the hell is time going?!" I'm going to work on not blinking. Maybe that will help slow things down...

"Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived."

I'm not sure how, where, or when exactly, but somehow my lil B has lost that sweet baby-ness. She has a mouth, an attitude and most of all an opinion. I expected this sometime around the teen years, but not now. Not so soon. Now that her brother is here, it seems as though she is showing her a-s-s even more. I try to remind myself that she is still only 3 1/2. That not being the center of attention anymore is hard. That she truly doesnt 'get' her actions and words...yet. Everyday I remind myself to be patient with her. But with hands on her hips, telling me 'Whatever!', followed by a slamming bedroom door...

SERENITY NOW!!!!

Come Again?



lil B and I decided to pick up some fast food for lunch today. While waiting in line at the drive thru, the lady in front of us ordered - what felt like - everything on the menu. As minutes passed, my 3 year old became more and more impatient. She then blurted out...

"What is this bitch doing?"

Momma = speechless.

It's A Wonderful Life.


I know I am living some of the best times of my life right now. I am trying to enjoy every moment...every second... What I wouldn't give to freeze time... I want this period of my life to last forever. I just can't imagine it getting any better than this.


Well - maybe when lil C sleeps thru the night...
