:D

Well it’s been a great week so far and it gets better as we get closer to Friday.. J Nothing out of the ordinary has happened, it just has been a good week. My daughter got a pair of parakeets this weekend , she was so excited to come home with them and of course with her purple cage that she chose for them. We got a girl and a boy, their names are Blue and Princess.. ,,Probably because she is in love with princesses right now and she has seen the movie Rio about a million times….She is growing up so fast, L this afternoon on our way to the store her song came on and she started singing as if she was the only person in the car. Kristian is 3, but some odd reason her favorite song is “moves like jagger”, I know, it’s hilarious.  She talks and talks all day long, although some thing you can barely understand, but she can sing her heart out when that song comes on, so of course I recorded her..It was the cutest thing!!!!!!

where is spring break??????

Hi everyone, today was  a busy busy day at work and at home, like always. We took kids from our High school to take their accuplacer at TCC, for the dual credit classes they will be taking next school year.  It’s a great opportunity that these kids have nowadays, they get to take college classes at TCC that count both as their regular high school class and as college credit, so by the time that they graduate high school if they might also graduate with at least 24 credit hours. That is a great start for any student and the parents, because those are classes that they might not have to pay for.  I hope they have this and other programs once my daughter gets older, of course that is a long way, but I really think that is a great help to the parents and students. …

On another note, this crazy Texas weather is killing me, my daughter has been sick since last Friday and thank God she is getting better. I’m not sure if anyone else’s kids have asthma, but is breaks my heart to see her coughing all day long and short of breath, we spent most of the day at the Dr’s office on Monday doing breathing treatments and also an ear infection…yuck!!! Does anyone know of any home remedies that can aid with the cough, I think I have tried everything and I hate giving her all this medicine.

Happy Friday!!

Hope everyone had a great week and ready for the weekend to come, I know I am. I am exhausted, with work, school and home I need a vacation, but that is far far away. Well, I wanted to share with everyone my valentines day, hope everyone had a good one also. I know is just another day and my husband and I don’t really do anything out of the ordinary, but my daughter for the first time made something for me. She was so excited to give it to me when I got home, it was priceless, and she really made my day. I mentioned before that she is 3 years old, so she made me this frog picture frame with our picture in it and had a little paper bag full of candies and a pair of socks. It was the best present I have ever received. Yes, I did get teary eyed, because that is what I love the most, is the little things that makes life a whole lot better. I also realized that this was her first out of many crafts hopefully that she will be making for me and one day I’m going to miss all of the good and bad things. Well have a great weekend, I know I still have tons of work to do at home, but it is always great to stay home and spend the day with my family... We mut remember to treasure those little things that make life amazing and not so much the material things!!

our future generation

Today i sat in my desk thinking about a little girl's situation, well not so little, since she is a senior in high school and expecting her second child, but nevertheless she is still a child. She gets beat up by her current boyfriend and some of her friends are concerned, but nothing can be done unless she says something or someone actually sees him doing it. I am a mom and a woman, and to think that my daughter could go through something like that broke my heart. I immediately thought to myself, well where are her parents, but who am I to blame them. Maybe they have to work a lot or maybe that is the environment that she grew up in so she doesn’t know to expect anything different. I am not sure how to express the feelings of anger, sadness and many more. I know that we all do the best we can as parents to provide our kids with the best and teach them to expect the same from everyone. But I don’t know if that is the same thing being taught to other kids that would be around mine. I just hope that she opens her eyes and realize that she had two little ones to think about, not just herself and that they are a lot of women that go through the same thing, but that she does not have to sit there and be treated in that manner. To all the parents I say, we need to teach our kids respect, respect for themselves and everyone else. They are the ones in charge of our future and I am not so optimistic that we are raising the best citizens.
