Happy Mothers Day 2011

Before I was a Mom
Before I was a Mom -
I slept as late as I wanted and never worried about how late I got into bed. I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday.
Before I was a Mom -
I cleaned my house each day. I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby. I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous. I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never been puked on - Pooped on - Spit on - Chewed on, or Peed on. I had complete control of my mind and My thoughts. I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom -
I never held down a screaming child so that doctors could do tests...or give shots. I never looked into teary eyes and cried. I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin. I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom -
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it down. I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt. I never knew that something so small could affect my life
so much. I never knew that I could love someone so much. I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom -
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body. I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby. I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay. I had never known The warmth, The joy, The love, The heartache, The wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom. I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mom.

Whats going on.....

So I have not posted in so long....the semester is almost over, last class this Thursday for finals, summer class starts June, but just taking 1 credit and on-line too... then August Biology... not ready for that one. Found out that there is no waiting list for dental program, so I can apply for the fall semester in September.. then 8 months of dental and get my certification... Cant wait.. then go back to finish up and get my associates degree... That was a mouth full.
School is almost over for the kids. Robert Graduates the sixth grade on May 26th. Wow... I remember his first day of Kindergarten like it was just yesterday, Now he's going off to middle school. ( In my day we called it JR. High, and we had elective classes...Not any more, I am corrected by the kids all the time) Makes me feel old. Caidence is ready to move on to second grade..she is enrolled to a summer program this year for July and August, trying to keep her on track, so second grade wont be as challenging as first..... although, I think she enjoyed the majority of her first grade year...
What else happened...... Oh... our desert tortoise drowned...... and lived...... he fell into our pond out in the front, and he must have been there for hours ... poor litttle guy...tortoise CPR, and a good dose of the vet, and five daily shots.... two weeks later, he looks like he's doing great... Eating and criusin around, back to normal...Lucky little guy...
Posting pictures next... As always....have a grateful and peaceful day...thanks for lookin'
