Forever Ago

WEll it's been forever since Ive written here and Im not sure anyone really cares, though it does help me to write sometimes. 


What has changed...Michael got the job he was hoping for and has now joined the Apple Community and I couldn't be more proud. His over night shifts are nothing to admire but once again my husband is an amazing provider and will do whatever he needs to in order to make sure his family is taken care of. For me however, I don't get much sleep when he is out so Im exhausted! I've been napping at lunch to try and make up for the little sleep I get in the evening. It's like I switched schedules with him only I have a day job! It will take some getting used to but we will manage it with time =) Another challenge has become cooking for one person when the kiddo's are at there Dads, nearly impossible. lol Thanks GOD for great friends and family who either come over for dinner or allow me to join them. 


As for the girls, they are growing like crazy and just doing amazing. Michaela and Naomi both have amazing grades and are amazing with their 2 yr step brother JD! Who by the way is the cutest most well behaved 2 yr old on the planet! They continue to impress me daily with something new they say or do. I truly am blessed to be able to call them mine. Naomi started Kinder this year and is Rockin' and Rollin right through. Michaela is overcoming her Dyslexia in 2nd grade and doing amazing! 


I feel like Ive caught you up sooo... I close with a few new photo's and try to stick with you all a bit more this time around. Blogging always seemed so silly but it's also so therapeutic! =) 

Have an Amazing Friday! 

Test Result's are in!

So today I got a call from Michaela's teacher telling me that she had the test results back from the Dyslexia test they preformed on Michaela about 3 weeks ago. As I'm sure you can already imagine, Michaela IS dyslexic! This news was alarming because now I have not one, but 2 children with special needs. Although I am grateful this was caught early and will help her get through school. No parent wants to think anything can be wrong with her children! As a parent I feel a little guilty for pushing her so hard, not knowing she really was doing her best. Did I mention she is going to the doctor today for a multiple ear infection also. My poor baby I wish she wasn't at her Dad's today so I could just love on her. 

So knowing and moving on with 2 beautiful unique girls. Do I keep trying for another? Do I keep putting myself through the pain every month? What if I lose another baby? What if my next one has disabilities worse then Sensory Processing Disorder and Dyslexia?

I have two of these most amazing Children anyone could ask for! They are Pretty, Smart, and Talented!

Why isn't that enough right? Well I wanted to give something to my  Husband also. I want to share the bond I have with their dad, with him too! I wanted my girls to have another brother or sister. I wanted a big family. Sounds like a lot of I want's, huh?

Well I guess it's time to just be grateful for the wonderful people in my life! I am so grateful for everyone and everything in my life!

Signing off for now! ***MUAH***

The Introduction

So here goes nothing! Most of my friends are Blogger's I never thought to do it because honestly I didn't think anyone would be interested in anything I have to say. My sister has a Single Mom blog and a good friend writes about being away from her family. What could I possibly have to say that people can relate to?!? Well I read a blog this evening that encouraged me to go for it. I realize now that a blog space is a place to be yourself. To brag, vent, cry and share. After-all we all have emotions and opinions right?

A little about me....I'm a Mother and Wife. By comparison I live a pretty normal life. I got married to my Husband Michael on Sept. 4th 2010. I though he was crazy asking me to marry him. After-all who could possibly want to take on me and my children. Michael makes an amazing husband and father and he is good at everything he does. I realize the reason he is so good at everything is because he live's with his whole heart. There is nothing he does that you can tell he is putting his whole heart into. Then there is my oldest daughter Michaela who is always trying to do everything Mike can do. She has recently started playing guitar that Mike take's the time to PATIENTLY teach her. She hit a rough spot this year with school so we are working overtime to get her to take her time on her work, I spoke with her teacher who recently told me they are going to test her for dyslexia. No one wants to think their child could have a learning disability so that was heart breaking to hear. But that's nothing compared to the hard work we have had with my baby Naomi, my bug! Naomi was born 2 months early and spent most of the first year in and out of the hospital. I am happy to report she is healthy and full of love!

This pretty much is my history! Pretty Normal Right?!?
