Life is amazing. And then its awful. And then it's amazing again!


Oh the rollercoaster of life. Why is it that one moment of our lives can be so amazing and the very next can leave you feeling every single emotion possible? But seriously, how awesome is life? Pretty freakin' awesome if you ask me. :) And when I stop and think about how I was a part of giving that awesome gift of life to 3 little people, it can be pretty mind blowing.

Watching my children grow is so fascinating. They each have their own quarks, likes and abilities. They each communicate and love in their own way and I’d like to think I have something to do with that. Bryson is very loving and affectionate but sensitive. This year he turned 11 and I am still very taken back that I have been a mother for MORE than a decade. Ava is my little mother. She has a love for little ones and it just melts my heart. Just today while waiting at the doctors she was very eager to get acquainted with the baby in the waiting room and she does it with such love. Carson is my little firecracker! Although small he sure is a spit fire and funnier than a rubber crutch. J

Can you believe it’s been a year and a half since I’ve blogged last? Crazy. Why is it we never find time to do the things we really love... Life man. It gets busy. Really busy. And writing is so therapeutic to me. I love writing things down. I love taking notes, making lists and sometimes I’m guilty of making lists of my list. Strange, I know! I really love the feel of my fingers typing and the sound the keys make as I fly across the keyboard. Something about it makes me feel very relieved.

Back to the crazy thing we call life. Its sure been busy but oh how fun it’s been too. So much has happened!

-          New friendships

-          Promotion at work

-          Celebrating another year with some of my favorite people

-          Closed doors no longer serving a positive purpose in my life

-          Met a boy

-          Pushed my kids to do better in school

-          Learning to love myself unconditionally

This is just a brief list of everything I’ve been doing since my last blog. And although it may seem small and short it’s been an awesome time. I can truly say my life is wonderful and has so much meaning.

What have you been up to? Have you taken a look back at the things you’ve done in 1.5 short years and thought how awesome your life is? You should!

Today while dropping Carson off to school I heard Ava reply “Love you”. And I immediately got a huge smile on my face and looked at her through my rearview mirror & then she caught me! “What Mommy”!? Nothing was said, we just exchanged a smile. It’s amazing how such a small statement can make me feel so good about how I want my kids to see life. Life is great. I mean REALLY great and it’s even better when we are surrounded by many people that we love and love us back.

Well, I promise to blog more often. Even if it’s just for my sake. I mean a girl only has 22 drafts that need published.
