Flint, Michigan - Born and Raised
Heading to visit the hometown tomorrow. The munchkin and I fly in to the D tomorrow afternoon. The hubby later on in the evening because he has to fly with his mom down to Louisiana first. LOL!!! I'm hoping she will want to stay there. Its a possibility. But, I don't know. We shall see what happens. Meanwhile, I'm going to enjoy a week in the Mitten with my munchkin and family while my hubby is in meetings each and every day. Sad but true. But, I will take lots of pictures while we are having our fun so that he can feel like he was there with us.
East Lansing and Ann Arbor, Michigan - The college years
My daughter is OFFICIALLY potty trained!!!! It took some hard core potty training these past couple weeks, but she is now sitting on the big potty no problem and taking major dumps!!! YUCK!!!!! But, we are saving money because we don't have to buy those expensive ass diapers and pull-ups anymore!!!!
Morrisville/Cary, North Carolina - After college apartments
It sucks that I have to fly knowing a plane crashed on a highway the day before my flight!!!!! True enough it was a small plane but it fucks with me all the same. I am praying for the families of those lost in the crash. And, I feel really sorry for the people who are going to have to avoid I-285 all day due to the traffic. Rush hour is going to be fucked up this evening.
Durham, North Caroline - Current homestead
Mother's Day is this weekend so don't forget to give your gifts. I am going to make CD copies of the pictures my daughter took with her grandparents and giving them to the grandparents, but I am going to frame one picture in particular and give it as a Mother's Day gift to all the grandmas. I think they will like that. I think my mother's day gift is my trip to Michigan and I am totally cool with that. But, I figure I will put this out into the universe...a charm to add to my Pandora bracelet would also be very nice.
San Jose, California/ Vancouver, BC - Future homesteads
Being a stay at home mom has been such a blessing. As much as I "complain" (not really, every mom needs to vent sometimes) there is nothing like waking up to a little person telling me "Mom its morning, we have to get up and go downstairs" or just cuddling up with me in the bed when she wakes up a little early. Or, getting randomly asked "Mom are you happy?" or hearing "Mommy I luvv you!" I may have a 3 year old munchkin who is always on 11...but there is nothing like seeing that little face every day knowing that I pushed her out. Knowing that I changed those stinking diapers. Being home with her and watching her grow and change and learn. Knowing that she loves it when her mommy sings to her and rocks her to sleep. Knowing that she is loved and I am loved back. Being a Mommy, there is NOTHING LIKE IT. And, its truly a blessing.
