Roller Coaster...


This week has been a roller coaster. The temperatures, my little angels at school, our daily life at home, and I have all been up and down. I'm not sure if it is the weather or the time of year but I am worn out. As I put my stuff away and begin to get my room ready for the the day, I stop and wonder if this is really what God planned for me. I often joke that I was suppose to live a different life but Kim Kardashian knocked me down, stepped over me, and took it. It would be nice to have an endless amount of money. I could handle having somebody do my hair and makeup every morning. Private jets, fancy cars, designer clothes, and big mansions don't sound that bad to me. As I compare her life to mine, that little green monster starts to take over my mind.  

 "Good morning, Brownie," my favorite El Salvadorian yells as he enters my room for his daily hug. As I hug Weezy and get him pumped up for his day, gone is that little green monster, and I know this is exactly what God had planned for me.

    Love this....

    I read something the other day that said that if the grass is greener on the other side, take the time to water your own grass so it will be just as green. I really loved that mindset.

Things That Make You Go Hmmmmm...

1.  I never spent the night away from my parents until I was 16. 2.  When Brody was two weeks old, somebody entered our house and tried to take him. 3.  I have a group of moles on my neck that make the Big Dipper. 4.  I was arrested when I was four years old for stealing mail. 5.  I've won three televisions in my life. 6.  My husband makes me watch his feet when we dance. 7.  My husband tried to give me to Kobe Bryant. 8.  When I started Kindergarten, the bus did not know where to drop me off. I rode around on it for two hours and my mom thought I had been abducted.

Baseball...

      Well, tonight was the first night of Little League baseball practice. We had our first travel ball tournament last weekend in Arkansas. Baseball and I have a love/hate relationship. I love watching the game and Brody play it, and I love watching the game and hate watching Brody play it. The minute the game starts I get millions of butterflies in my stomach. This is his eighth year playing so you think it would be no big deal for me. When it comes to Brody and sports, I am a worrier. He can hold his own and stay right up there with the rest of his team but I always worry that he is going to get in a slump and everyone else will shoot way ahead of him in skill and ability. I have no idea why I feel this way.  I can tell you that it is a miserable feeling. I would love to be able to go to the games,  sit back and enjoy them, but instead I sit there and worry with millions of butterflies in my stomach. When the game is over, the butterflies are gone, I hug him...

This Mom Gig...It Ain't Easy!!!

I'm not going to lie, I never really wanted to be a mom. I had two nephews that I considered my own and was perfectly content living life with them. I was the "FUN" aunt. I can only imagine how much my sister in law hated me😬 I never missed a game, a school performance, or anything else that involved them. Then one day, the youngest nephew was 10 and the oldest was 15,  I decided I was getting old and wanted a child of my own. When I announced to my family that I was pregnant with Brody, I swear the world kind of skidded for a second.  They didn't believe me for about 30 minutes. It was a quick and easy pregnancy. Once I had gone in during my seventh month and told my doctor that I didn't think Bro was moving as much. The doctor did a test and everything came back normal. So, I didn't worry about it and went back to planning for the big day. One week before my delivery date, I went in for a check up, a blood test, and a urine test. I told my doctor that m...
