still pink lint in the dryer

It's been a while since I've updated this blog....A lot has happened. Kathy (now 20..21 this summer) has moved out with her.....BOYFRIEND!!!!!..oh BOY(pun intended) Scared, terrified, frightened, panicked.....these are all the emotions I have been feeling since....really hard to breath. At the same time...proud...

Sadie, now 3 1/2, started preschool!!...scared, terrified, frightened, panicked...and proud... again,that's all me. SHE did just great and is loving every minute of it!

Tori, who is now 14 months!!!!is walking, talking, climbing, moving furniture....scared, terrified, frightened, panicked...and proud.......yep, you guessed it ....me, once more:(

There is a pattern here.. I don't do well with my kids growing up...sure you can keep having new ones, but they too WILL grow up! yes! it's true!..I have learned that...with that said, this doesn't mean that I'm done...or not done.....let's just say we locked that door but have not thrown away the key!

Kathy....just recently made honor roll, while working and going to school full time!...I don't know how she does it?! incredible work ethics...outlandish smarts and self discipline like it's going out of style!!...yeah, we're talking about the kid who would NEVER, EVER clean her room, thought showers we're for nerds, and homework was another name for a nap!......and guess what, now she cleans her apartment all the time, showers like the biggest nerd of all and must be "napping" ALL THE TIME, because she just made honor roll AGAIN and they are now paying HER to go to school!ha!....not bad for a kid of a teenage mom huh!!...Let me just make this crystal clear; I am NOT promoting teenage pregnancy...I'm just saying....nananananana....we kicked some studies and research butt!..MAGNIFICENT!!love her!!

Sadie-well, she's 3 1/2 and just started WRITING!!!...yes!..I said 3 1/2-writing..what an incredible kid she is! The girliest of all 3, adores make-up, shoes, dresses, purses..her long blond hair....but don't be fooled...that 3 1/2 year old brain of hers is as good looking as possibly imaginable!!...I mean let's review here the kid is 3 and she can write.....I rest my case!

Tori-ohhh my baby.........where do I begin?!?! sweet, hilarious, smart....I mean, I'm a sucker for the chubby cheeks and pudgy legs...all the sweetness babies have...especially mine! there is something about that baby...I just can't explain it...really...I am lost for words.......it can happen......no it can't! there is a lot more words left in me!....
Well, now that we're sort of up to date...let's talk, debate, reflect...throw me a topic and maybe we can get this motherhood thing figured out...or maybe not ...but you won't believe how NOT alone you are, and how people "get it" when you share.....
Next stop...daddies- the fun, exciting parents!
