My house. Sometimes I can grumble and complain when all the toys are out and Fulton has dragged out our vacuum, broom, and pots and pans to play with, and it begins to feel small (just ask my husband about these grumblings). In truth I really do like my house. I love that the trim is painted white. I love that the monthly payment doesn't break our bank. I love that the basement is practically finished so that we have two living spaces, and I really love the light shade of blue in the bedrooms. At night when I tuck my freshly bathed well feed children into bed, I smile at the safe, warm, clean house we are able to give them. Some mothers in the world would give anything to give their kids just that.
Fulton and John Paul. My list wouldn't be complete who these two. Thank you boys for making my wildest dreams come true. I wouldn't have this title of "mom" without you.
Change. My life has moved very fast in the last few years. I am so thankful for how easy it was to embrace the change.
Friends. Many more have been added to the mix in the last few months. I am so thankful for the beautiful women in my life who inspire me - as a wive, as a mother, as a woman.
Mom. We are two very different people, but have always had a good relationship. My mom set a great example for me - it was never about her it was always about us kids. She loved and spent true time with us as babies and toddlers and kids. As I grew up she let me become more and more independent without "breathing down my neck", but she still always knew just what was up and what was going on in my life (I am thinking of my teenage years here).
Bill. This guy is really my other half, so it's pretty precise to say I would lost without him. We make a good team, and he brings out the best in me. He works hard. He reminds me to "relax" when I am stressed about nonsense. He is funny. And he is good looking!
