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…

Happiness

Posted on March 18, 2015

Dear Judah, Your birthday is only two months away baby. I cannot believe how big you are getting. We went to the park and you were picking flowers for me. I love you more than any words I could ever use. You are so kind and caring and I’m proud to be your mommy. Life has calmed down so much. We are happy. You are happy. Your favorite thing to say is -I was thinking about you mommy- you definitely know how to melt my heart. Years ago I was so scared about raising you without your daddy in the same house. But today I’m proud to say that we got this. I would not trade the time I have with you for anything…

New Year

Posted on January 2, 2014

Last night Judah and I spent the night cuddling, watching a documentary on killer whales. There was no place that I would have rather been. Last night I was lying in bed thinking about the things that happened in 2013 and where I wanted to be in 2014. Normally I don’t really do the whole resolution thing. I think that every morning that your feet hit the floor is a new opportunity to change. But this year I start with list in hand. Things I want to do. Things I want to see and experience. Places that I want to travel to and places that I want to take Judah. On this list there are also the things that I want to forget,…

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…

Letter to Judahs future step mom

Posted on December 16, 2013

{Dear Step-mom, I am writing you this letter to tell you about how I feel about you in my sons life. Moving on for his dad and I is inevitable. So I know that one day you will be a major part of his life. As a little girl I dreamed of one day getting married and having a family. Little did I know that getting pregnant would not be easy at all but I can tell you that every needle prick, doctors appointment and even the scary moments were worth every moment. If I can be honest with you. You scare me. I don’t know you at all. Yet you will be around a very important piece of my heart. My stomach sinks…

Appenrantly I spoke too soon!!! Those darn terrible two’s are here with a vengeance And as much as I wish they weren’t, they are here to stay.
