What? Seriously?

I woke up from a nightmare this morning. I reached over and I wasn't alone. I took a shower and walked slowly to wake the two little ones, one at a time. I knocked and my oldest was putting her make up on her sweet face that needed nothing. My mom probably told me the same thing at her age.



My dream brought the past present and drove lightening bolt through my brain.

My babies are growing up so fast. I wouldn't change a minute of it,well except for all the time k was sick and in the hospital. Well, and I'd waste much less time on the little crap that muddles through our female brains. I'll take 40 and some of the wisdom and run with it, also fight my damn slowing almost 40 metabolism the entire time! :)

Happy Wednesday. Enjoy it! Cherish it! Have a glass of wine at the end of the day and forget it if you need to, because it's that bad! XOXOXOXO

Just A Little Bit...

So life does happen and we need to go with it, whether we like it or not. Choices are made. Learning from the choices and owning them can make a person move forward into the light. God doesn't expect perfection. Lord knows I'm so beyond perfection. Loyalty, devotion, and kinds to others is expected of me. After 40 years on this planet I can say I'm doing pretty well. The kids keep me going and on my toes every single day. They crack me up, make me want to scream, and sometimes just cuddle nice and quietly with me. I'm excited to watch them swim and kick butt in the pool. They love swimming. I'm so proud of my open minded girls that don't live with blinders and know that if two souls are in love tolerance is necessary.

That's all I really have today. I hope it didn't sound preachy, because that wasn't my intent. It comes down to love, acceptance, and living without fear. More importantly I had to find my voice. I had to learn to tell someone when something was OK. It felt good. It feels good. I was brave and it paid off immensely.
