Love Matters

Hope for a peaceful future ...

The talk to work through our issues went better than expected and hopefully will help our future to be more calm and full of love for our kids!  Sometimes leaving the digital age behind and sitting down to a face to face talk will help you see and feel the emotions between each other.  E-mail and text has ruined real heartfelt communication between people these days and sometimes we just need to put them away.

Mending Broken Fences

How do we as humans mend fences broken ... fences demolished even!  I hope through communication this can be done.  The drama that has consumed too much of my time has become unbearable to me and my husband so tomorrow night I will be sitting with someone and trying to fix a few things.  This WILL NOT be an easy thing to do and emotions will run high as usual.  I pray that I keep my mind focused and my heart open.

Baby blues ...

My baby girl is just a few days shy of her 7 month mark.  I just love her to death and can't get enough of her sweet smiling face.  This is probably the one thing that makes me feel better about having her and all the trouble I had in my pregnancy.  What I didn't bargain for or prepare myself for is the intense emotional roller coaster my hormones would put me through.  

I have avoided the doctor because I really really do not want to be dependent on medication to control my mood but unfortunately it may be the end of that fantasy as I can't seem to shake this myself.

Relationships with my family, friends and myself have all suffered and I am tired of feeling angry, sad and frustrated with no real reason or answer as to WHY!

That is the end of this rant ... hoping that pouring it out for the moment will help remove the feeling of a 100 pound weight sitting on my chest!

Peace out mystical creatures and have a blessed day!

One Proud Mama

My son is in the second grade.  He is 7 years old and just so talented!  When I was a kid I wasn't particularly good at anything it seems.  He is awesome at sports and is currently strutting his stuff in baseball and really proving to be a great player!

This week he was accepted into the gifted program at school after going through a testing process.  Some kids did not make it.  I probably would have not known about other children not making it had it not been for the angry parents at the office yelling at the teacher and administration for their children not placing.  They should be ashamed of themselves!

Also this week my son was given an award for his artwork.  He was the only second grader in the school to have artwork awarded and his artwork was displayed this past weekend at Panoply - our art festival each year.

 I am such a proud mom.  He is really doing so well on his own without this mom showing off at school and trying to buy his accomplishments or force them upon anyone!
