Missing Mommy
Other than gymnastics, my boys haven't been involved in any organized sports. So when I signed Tyler up for T-Ball - I didn't really know what to expect. Would he be too scared to participate? Would there be tears if he made a mistake? Would he even want to do it ? I found out today - I had no reason to worry!
If you've read any of my blogs, you know how frustrating birthday celebrations and holidays have been for me because of my parent's divorce. Unfortunately, it's been like that all of my life. I never had a birthday party, a graduation party, a big wedding or reception - mainly because of all the family drama I've witnessed and tried to avoid.
I am writing this on the last day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I just couldn't let it go by without saying something about the disease. This is in honor of all the young moms out there who are battling breast cancer and still doing all the things we moms do everyday - cook, clean - drive the kids around. Keep up the faith and the fight!
This is an exciting time of year for a number of reasons..the leaves begin to change colors, the kids get a chance to dress up in costumes, we get to visit the highly anticipated pumpkin patch - and of course - FOOTBALL. There's no one more thrilled about the latter of the four than my husband Todd. So he decided he needed to have the "football talk" with our boys.
Our "Mommy & Me" gymnastics class turned a little physical for my little one this week. I'm still not exactly sure what happened, but I think Jordan got in front of a boy when it was his turn to roll down the mat. Apparently the little guy didn't like that much because - he reached back and whacked Jordan right in the head. I couldn't believe what I was seeing! Did that little boy just hit my son?
