Here and there

I haven't blogged for a couple weeks! We have been so busy! A lot going on here. 

A couple new things... I'm going back to work full-time in the new year! 

We are going to New York soon for a weekend trip! 

Anddddddd we are considering moving in the next year or so! 

2014 will definitely be the year of change. A new outlook on my life. Leaving the negative behind me and bringing in more positive. 

I've also been doing a lot of meditation and really focusing on personal and spiritual growth. 

I believe now more than ever that God has a plan for all of us. We need to be open and allow him to show us that path. In the middle of all the bad there's good waiting. Something better. Even when it's hard to see how that could be possible. 

Jeremiah 29:11 for I know the plan I have for you, declares The Lord. Plans to prosper you, and not to hard you. Plans to give you hope and a future. 

Little K is growing so fast and seriously a 2 year old going on 4. He is so independent, sweet, loving, persistent ha!  No mean no with him these days. 

His vocabulary is exploding and when he says new things I even shed a tear because it's all so amazing to me watching him learn. 

Christmas is around the corner and I still have a long list of gifts to get! I better get shopping! 

A pat on the back, mom.

Whoa whoa whoa! How many ah ha moments until the big ah ha moment! Ha! 

I've been really soul searching lately and uncovering a lot of deep experiences that has made me who I am today. It's painful and tough to touch on some experiences of the past. But with looking within I'm uncovering a new me. An awareness of the old me and how I want the new me to be with a balance. 

Having a child really brings out a lot if different emotions. Ones that sneak up on you in different situations.  So I now know the meaning behind life learning. 

This little boy is my light. My everything.

Seeing him go off to daycare today waving, saying bye bye and blowing me a kiss just melted my heart!

Us moms don't give ourselves enough pats on the backs. We usually kick ourselves down when we think we've done something wrong. Let's face it, some days I feel like I've done everything wrong!

Today I gave myself a pat on the back. 

Seeing my little independent 23 month old say bye to me this morning with a smile and ready to take on his day with confidence, I know I did some things right :)

So moms! Let's pat ourselves on the back today for doing a great job! We ARE doing a great job!
