Today God spoke to me through one of my dearest friends… BJ’s Godmother. She knows more than anyone what it feels like to go through what we went through with BJ when he was born prematurely. Her path and mine have a lot of similarities… God definitely put her in my life for a reason.ContinueContinue reading “Clarity… through a friend”

It’s that time of year…
It’s that time of year, a time to thank God for another year, to celebrate BJ’s birthday and celebrate how far he’s come. I’ve been trying for the past couple of weeks to figure out why I’ve been feeling so…off. Not sad not happy just a little off kilter. And yesterday I figured it out,ContinueContinue reading “It’s that time of year…”
My weekend
This weekend was a weekend that I would normally feel wasn’t productive. I only finished half of my cleaning and about a fourth of the laundry. BJ kept me on my toes and also decided to refuse to leave my side no matter how hard I tried to bribe him with crayons, movies and hisContinueContinue reading “My weekend”
Hello Again
Its been a while since we’ve spoken to each other so let me start off by saying how much I’ve missed you. Life got a bit in the way of things for a while. And by life I mean that BJ has been thriving in his terrible twos and my job decided to block wordContinueContinue reading “Hello Again”
7-13-13… The sad reality
I battled with myself about whether or not to post about Trayvon Martin or the George Zimmerman trial. But I decided that since I originally wanted to use this website for BJ to one day be able to read my thoughts and know his mommy’s feelings on a deeper level; that this is in factContinueContinue reading “7-13-13… The sad reality”
Easy, breezy Fourth of July…
For the 4th of July this year we did absolutely NOTHING… and I loved every freaking minute of it. BJ is 2 ½ years old and not quite old enough to know what’s going on so we made the executive decision to play into that realization and keep him at home. No parades, no festivals,ContinueContinue reading “Easy, breezy Fourth of July…”
The littlest things…
There’s something about holding BJ’s hand that makes my heart melt. Maybe its the level of unwaivering trust that it represents… Or the reminder that I’m responsible for raising and providing my little ray of sunshine all that he needs to make it in this world. I’m instilling in him his morale compass by leadingContinueContinue reading “The littlest things…”
Finding BJ’s voice
I came across this phrase and it literally brought tears to my eyes. BJ hit his terrible twos ages ago. Working a extremely stressful job, being a graduate student and trying my damnedest to be a good wife, mother and homemaker is exhausting to say the least. Reading that one sentence made me pause andContinueContinue reading “Finding BJ’s voice”
My Mothers Day Post
All week long I’ve been reminding myself that I needed to make SURE I made a post about Mother’s Day. I mean, today IS Mother’s Day and my blog IS about being a mom right? My problem was that I couldn’t come up with anything sappy and corny to write about. After giving it much thought (ok, maybe 5ContinueContinue reading “My Mothers Day Post”
Stressed the Heck Out…
It’s been a while since I’ve logged on to do some writing… Life has been CRAZY lately. Actually I’ll retract the work life and insert the word WORK. Work has been driving me absolutely insane. I’m an accountant. I went to school to become an accountant and am actually working on my Master’s degree withContinueContinue reading “Stressed the Heck Out…”
