Finally......

It's the weekend!!!

I have been awaiting this day, like millions of others of course, but today we leave to travel to Dallas, TX :-)  This weekend my job plays my Alma Mater in football and they both have a losing streek smh.....  Debating my school at work is like debating politics and religion therefor I stay away from it as much as possible lol

Any who, excited!  Excited to get away for a bit, even if for a weekend.   Excited about visiting the State Fair and just enjoying my babies :-)  I hadn't written in a bit but forgot to mention that I am now the proud owner of a 2010 Champagne Nissan Altima and have been loving every ride!  Before our rides out of town, while exciting, were very HOT!  I owned a '98 Ford Escort, no air, stick shift (which I loved) but after awhile the tape deck (yes tape deck) went out and we weren't even able to plug our iPod up anymore for music......making trips very boring.  All of that is in the past :-)  I thank God for my old Betsy.....she got me many places....many states and most importantly through school and lasted even with starting my new career.  I must say we've truly been blessed.....

I hope that you have a wonderful weekend....remember to relax and take time to enjoy quietness and peace.

It's a beautiful thing ;-)

Player Down.....

So my son plays football, has been for a very long time now (about 8 years).  Last year he wasn't able to play and that's of no one's fault but his own.  We reside in the great state of Texas and here although the children can play in Middle School there is this "No Pass No Play" rule.  Well of course my son decided to be show stopper and class clown of class and played NOTHING for the very first time last year.  I was not about to pay for him to join a league if all he had to do was shut up, focus, and complete work in class and out.  Well him not playing last year has done wonders!  Grades AND behavior are awesome....even at home!  But now we may have another issue......after the first game last week he began to complain of some pain around his waist.  Not sure if it's his waist or maybe a muscle but I'm praying nothing major.  My son loves to play but right now I'm more concerned with his health and making sure he's alright.  Will play nurse mommy tonight and make sure he rest in tub, the ice the area, repeat.

Praying all goes well.....

My Baby Girl..........

So I have 5 more days before becoming a mother to a teen. My baby girl will be 13 this weekend and I'm still in awww of how the time has flown bye *sighs* She just got back from a trip to the Dominican Republic, an experience she'll always remember, and just 2 weeks ago her body joined the beginning stages of motherhood (in which I welcomed in by screaming to the top of my lungs~another moment she'll forever remember). Children are a gift from God that not everyone is blessed to experience. I thank God every chance I get for en-trusting me with such a task. I'm not perfect and do not attempt to sugar coat things for my children, but I do pray that and I train and allow God to lead with every step and decision. Not sure if we'll have that mommy/daughter feud that I hear some mothers/daughters speak of, or if we'll remain just as cool as now, but whichever I pray that she always come to me for guidance and advice and whatever other issues that are due to come her way.

God I thank You for Your many blessings and the guidance thus far.

~Peace & Blessings~
