Happy mommy=happy kids

Looking back 5 years ago I was so sad. I was a very lonely single mother. My fuse was very short and I felt my home was a battle ground with my child. I am grateful that age has shown me patience and coping skills. My daughter has a even better chance to make great stride through life even with a broken family. Tony is so patient with her when I am instructing him how to get her to help out around the house. He is definitely more patient with her than I was with him. That makes me so happy to watch.

My goal for my children is just to be successful and happy. I don't want them to remember what material possessions we have or don't have. I try to make very night as routine as possible so that every moment is stress free and enjoyable. My son loves middle school and my daughter loves her day care. Just knowing that they leave me everyday smiling and come home smiling at eachother and at me makes my heart melt.

These happy kids make me a happy mom

Star Gazing

Wishing on a star, a star that remains unable to catch. My star teases me in the moon lighten sky with a fast flash on a beautiful night. It reminds me to make a wish to one day catch it. When I finally catch this beautiful star that dances in a distance, will I know what to do? My imagination and dreams take me to it often. My wish is granted and I'm with you.

Just thoughts .... I saw a shocking star to night.

Time you enjoy wasting......

Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted. ~John Lennon

The time I spend wasting is alone. My time at night after the kids are asleep, thinking about life. I love my time alone. Most people I know are afraid to be alone. But I can clear my head, take a breath and kick my feet up on my accomplishment and tragadies.

So this wasted time isn't wasted at all. It's my precious time that makes me sane. What is your favorite wasted time?
