Live

I know this pic is from the summer but it always reminds me of the simple things is life and what makes me smile. I have a lot of these quotes around the house and have pictures behind them. I move them around the house and just enjoy looking at them. My husband is a free spirit and all of his time spent with my little one is times like what the picture tells. He picks up and goes and never gets stressed or overwhelmed around her, every day is treasure with dad. She has such a deep look in her eyes when she is with him, savoring every moment. I have decided that Mondays for me will be a time to reflect on good memories, 'sweet memories', since it is the day of the week that is most stressful at work. I need to start it right somehow. We will jam out to Kidz Bop 11 on the way to school this morning and I will get my Kiss, Hug, Good bye I love you, and shake (a little dance she does), then she says "Dont forget to call me" and then waves from the window smiling blowing kisses. Not too many parents get a good bye like I do, she is so full of passion, I just love that she displays it in such a loving way. Her teacher compliments her in this way too, the way she treats others, animals, unborn babies (in her teachers belly). She put her hands, palms up to her teachers belly the other day and for about a half hour, talked about the growing spirit in her belly and what we needed to do to protect it....

She also announced to the whole waiting room at the doctors office the other day that she was there for the chicken pox (she had a rash), then proceeded to ask me why I didnt have a boyfriend (Well sweetie, I have a husband I dont need a boyfriend). She had the whole silent waiting room (when we entered) roaring in laughter and then got upset because she thought everyone was laughing at her.

Charlottes Web, oh, you have to see it, I am filled with joy from that movie. We have to find a way to have a baby pig and a horse now. Well, I do live in Farm country, I told her I will sign her up for horse back lessons and she can see the baby pigs at her school in the spring time (she goes to school on a farm).

Hmmmmm

Hmmm..not sure lately if I have time for Blogging, used to make more time for it, but having a hard time keeping up with life....I have made decisions over the past few months that have strengthened my family unit, such as looking at the positives at my job and making the best out of them, enjoying my home and not running away every weekend, vacation I can on a plane to try to forget the little things at home that need attention. My life has become less complicated when I stay focused on basic needs. I have many people in my life that I have also been sorting through, spending less time with those that stunt my creative and spiritual growth and suck the life out of me; I have been not the first person to offer up my home and entertain all of the time, letting others take the lead on that, and enjoying every conversation with my spiritual little girl, making more time for creative playing with her. You see, this time in my life, along with motherhood, is the best thing for me. I have always been a very giving person and not always the type that could put my feet up, relax and have a cup of tea. I am better when I am on my feet, taking charge and getting everyone around me going. It is what I am good at, and in the past years, I have tried to take a look at who I am and try to make some changes so that I can relax and take it easy a little more. I guess it is just not me, and what I enjoy is making things easy for others and helping others to enjoy things more. I have always thought about starting a business of my own, about a dozen or so types, changing constantly. My hubby has one, so it is hard for both of us to do this, then you lose the benefits of working for a company. I have decided maybe of a side business, something a little smaller that can work into something big if my life allows it to. I will do it quietly and throughout my day, I will stop to make the time for ideas and developing my dream business if time allows. For now, I will just stay focused, stay positive and remember that my life will always be a reflection on my daughter who has completely changed my life and helps me every day to see things more sweetly. I may post once a month, maybe more, have not decided to completely ditch the blogging community because I have met a few very sweet souls that I would like to remain in touch with....but for now, I have to hang onto what is in front of me and make the best of it.
