a little bit late...

I wanted to do a pre-mother's day post with things people love about their mom or what they love about being a mom... well I only got one reply to that From The Peachy One!  If you haven't checked out her blog... please do.  She is an amazing woman.  And I feel privileged to have "met" her thru blogging and twitter and all that social media crap.  This is one time when every one in my life thinks I am crazy for blogging and tweeting and what not...I can say "See!!! This is why I do it!!"  


This was the email she sent to me after I asked her if she minded if I posted about the blog link she sent me: 


if you want,  I am not a typical mom,   to the world they see my daughter with 3 degrees by 22, my phsycics science fair, mr good citizenship award winning honor roll baseball playing sweet heart, my ninja tech loving husband, and my humor, our house our dogs and go wow, they are so "perfect" so "normal".

then out there, is him,  my son,  the one I couldn't fix, the one that is just as much mine as the others,  from me, of me, mine, the one who tried to kill me more than once, the one who I would lay my life down to save, but I can not because I have another younger one to raise.

 so behind every J crew perfect lawn, when a mother crumbles feeling so guilty for yelling or losing her cool, and see's her perfect neighbors  at the soccer game, remember, there's a hole in their wall,  even if they had it fixed.  I just own mine.

Happy Mother's Day

My mom is my best friend. I am not really sure if she knows that or not.. I hope she does. Our relationship has definitely changed over the years… and I will be honest… Its not the way I would want it to be..but it is what it is. I wish we were a lot closer.. and I wish we had the same ideas on a lot of different things…but in reality we don’t. We are from two completely different generations… too different sometimes…  She’s prime and proper in my eyes… and I am a rebel probably in hers with my tattoos, piercings and different colored hair.

My mom is the best woman that I know… and if I could trade her for any other mom, I wouldn’t.  My mom works her butt of every single day working, taking care of a home, being a wife and a mother and also a grandmother to my lil babies. Well they ain’t really little anymore.   I don’t know what I would ever do with out my mom. She is my heart. She is my strength. She is the reason I can survive every day.  She is the reason why I can have a job or two. The reason I can go to college. She is the reason I can stay sane.  If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have the help that I need to get thru each and every day. She is there for me in ways that she probably doesn’t even know.  

We may not always see eye to eye on everything.. but she is my mom and I love her whole heart and soul.

Thank you mom for loving me, for cherishing me, for helping me, for birthing me, and especially being the wonder woman/mother/friend that you are.

Happy Mother’s Day.
