Happy

Halloween!

 

 {that is one BAD school picture}

 

check out the witch's mole hair

 

 "Can I help you find something?"

 

It's Pippy-Long-Stocking

 none other than a fairy

 

 oohh scary - a mummy

 and last but not least, BATMAN

Memories

seem to slip through the cracks

positive 

negative

happy 

sad 

neutral 

inbetween

the only memories left to exist
are the ones i choose to hold on to

Happy Birthday!

Today Caleb is celebrating 

DOUBLE DIGITS!

{#10}

He is growing into a young man 

He is very helpful, kind and loving

I can't believe how he is growing up before my eyes

I miss the little boy he used to be

but I look forward to watching him change and grow 

into an intelligent, considerate, and compassionate young man!

Life

i don't know where to turn
where to go
or how to get there
i am just barely hanging on
by the very tip of the thread
i feel overwhelmed
frustrated
exhausted
with no end in sight
i am trying really hard to see the positive
but it is very difficult
amidst all the negative
i do see it
i know it's there
i just wish it could all get a little easier
or i could get a minimal break...

it isn't getting any easier

but it is easier to keep doing what I have to be doing
because
i have 7 of the most precious motivators you could ever ask for

situations really suck
i have so many mixed feelings
circling around inside of me

but it is so true
it is only as bad as you make it

I am slowly getting

the answers
to every question
I have asked
not always the way I want
but I trust 
these are the right answers
and if not 

I will 

keep asking 
the same question again
until 
I get a different answer

I have been thinking about

how many lemons life has been giving me...


but, I am still making some pretty damn good lemonade...
