Happy birthday little one

Posted on May 10, 2018

Happy seventh birthday Judah. I wish that I could stop time sometimes. You are growing so fast and sometimes it makes me a little bit sad. I hope you know just how much I love you and how very proud I am of you. You are seven going on fifteen. You are wise beyond your years my love and I love watching you analyze things. You spend your days asking question after question. Sometimes you drive me mad and we have mandatory quiet time. Right now you LOVE pizza, spaghetti and breakfast food. You could live on those three things. You just finished up soccer, I think you’re gonna be my little sports fanatic. Chris bought a tackle dummy and you mess with it…

Unsteady

Posted on April 10, 2018

You know what’s crazy? Just how unpredictable life is. If you’ve followed me for a while, you know just how much I went through to have my little man. Sometimes I look at him and my heart breaks knowing he won’t be little forever. I still remember the feeling the moment I heard his heart beat for the first time. I remember sitting across for the fertility doctor, having him tell me “it worked”..”you’re pregnant”. I couldn’t imagine my life without him. This little boy is a part of my heart. He will be 7 next month. 7 years old. Somedays I feel like super mom. I can do it all. Those days everything just falls into place. Dinner. Done. Homework. Done. Shower. Clothes…

2013

Posted on December 27, 2013

2013 was probably one of the craziest years that I have had. This year I was living with my sister and her family. Our divorce was finalized in March of this year. I moved into my own apartment. I lost my job. I hurt. I fell down and stayed down for a while. I cried a lot. I learned that things change, situations change and that people change. I dated some and quickly realized that it was too soon. I hoped and dreamed. I lost. I prayed and I understood why things did or didn’t happen the way that I planned. I complained and wallowed in a big pool of self pity…. almost all year long. But in this year I also fought. I…

Dear Judah

Posted on December 21, 2013

Dear Judah, I just wanted to take a second to tell you just how much I love you. You are about 5 minutes away from your 3rd birthday. I can’t believe how time has just flown by. You got this been all week with me baby and I loved every minute. This pictures of you and I just being silly. You didn’t want me to put you down everytime I try to you calling your little legs around me your arms around my neck saying no mommy no down. I have no idea what I would do without you. I miss you from the moment you walk out of the door. You’re such a smart little boy. You are kind and caring and really…

I just don’t know…

Posted on September 11, 2012

Okay, for the past several weeks I have contemplated going back to work full time. Only a couple of weeks before I gave birth to Judah I received that dreadful layoff notice from my job. It really caught me off guard as I was planning to return to work after 6 weeks of being at home with my little one. Well as life would have it things did not turn out the way that I had planned them. Figure that. For starters I didn’t plan on having Judah so soon. After he was born I knew that the likelihood of me returning to work so soon was probably out of the question. Fast forward almost a year and a half and I find myself…

I’m back

Posted on August 11, 2012

I think that by now I have lost the few readers that I had (thank you all by the way) 🙂 I know it’s been like forever and a day that I’ve posted anything. Things have been a little out of sorts here lately, to say the least. But I guess that’s how life goes sometimes huh. Judah is doing what he does best, which is growing too fast. I don’t think that my whispers in the morning for him not to grow up are working. We are officially mobile on two feet. Yep! Judah is walking. First with a few steps and now he’s just a big boy. Braving those steps that are beyond the safety of something to grab on to. He…

My first year being a mom

Posted on June 3, 2012

I love, love, love being a mom. Over the course of the past year I have learned so much about life, about myself and about being a mom. From the moment that I found out that we were pregnant I began to imagine what it would be like having a baby. I would find myself daydreaming of the things that I would do and not do. The things that i would teach my son or daughter. I was excited and yet nervous about this new role that I had. During my pregnancy I tried to do all of the right things, eat mostly good food, and tried to care for myself because i now had a little life growing inside of me. Yet all…
