Beautiful Life

What a beautiful Life this is! This year had already been amazing to me... and it's only February imagine that?!?!? Well let's just say things don't usually go my way and life is alway pretty tough on me but I must say that if you work hard for what you want out of this life you will get it maybe slowly but it will come eventually. I believe that taking the alcohol out of my life has probably been one of the hardest and most rewarding things for me. So ok ok now on the the amazing story, Are ya ready? ok here goes

when I was a little girl I had a sister that was sadly adopted out when she was about 18 months-2 yrs old I believe. I remember thinking when I was little that she got to be adopted and got to be some kind of princess and well frankly I was a little jealous ( i wanted to go and be a princess too). Hahaha So over the years I have googled her name and sent messages to random people on my space and even a few on face book. But all I knew was her first name( Kyra)  and date of birth... well with lots of messages back and no luck I honesty never thought I was gonna find her.

until about 2 weeks ago I got a message from my mom that I checked at about 6am that said she thought some one named Kyra Elder was looking for her on mylife.com So I instantly go on there and pay the $50 bucks to try and get info about this Kyra Elder but it really didn't give me anything I did send her a messgae from that site though and I noticed that when it sent it went to a Kyra Banks. So with NO waiting around I hit Facebook and look for a Kyra Elder and I didn't find what I thought I was looking for noone matched the age  , So I look for a Kyra Banks and I find one with the same birthday so I send her a message that said

This may sound crazy but have you ever gone by Kyra elder? I'm looking for my sister that was adopted out when we were really young sorry if it's not you but if it is please contact me asap

My mom's name is marti if this helps

Thank you

My Baby Boy

So My son is about to turn 9 next month and I must say I'm not excited about this birthday because it just means one more year until the big DOUBLE digits :( is that terrible of me???  He is super excited, we are having his big day at Game works in Seattle and a few friends to stay the night. So I'm figuring out as he gets older he is getting really hard to shop for he is picky about what he wears and he doesn't play with toys anymore so it just keeps getting harder and MORE EXPENSIVE! He is honestly the best thing I could have ever asked for in a little boy he is awesome is school, does his chores with out much complaining usually and is well mannered and a good friend... with all of that I will say though lately his mouth has really been testing me sometimes I'm so shocked with what is coming out of his mouth I can't even believe that's my BABY. ok ok I know he gonna be 9 but still and it's not that its all bad stuff that he is saying alot of it just sounds so grown up... and well as for the mouthy stuff thats a whole other thing he actually got grounded today because of his mouthiness I told him if he wants to do something he can read so he went to his room to do that and I just went in there and he is sleepin... does sleeping really count as being grounded??? Well I figure he's not talking so that works for me ;)




Be back to blog soon sorry folks been away for awhile

Just thought I would check in today on my Blog. Yesterday was my Nanny's funeral RIP Georgia Adams! Very sad and what a hard time of year to be handling death, She has been the glue to our family. I also have a ton of packing to get done and all week with out my son to get it done (as you can see I'm doing this instead and am not very motivated) ;) I just really am having a hard time getting in the mood but time is running out and I need to get my rear in gear! Well in that case I'm not sure I''l be back on here until after Christmas so HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!

Merry Christmas to us!

We close on our house December 23rd! How exciting :)

and this is it! I can't wait to make this house a home with my wonderful guys!

Wake up call

So this morning I wake up to a call from my neighbor, She needs me to watch Konner her grandson (the beautiful baby above!) he is 2 1/2 months old! I love watching him and it's never a problem. But when she tells me why I can't help but get PISSED! His mom an 18 yr old decides to just leave in the middle of the night and not tell anyone this is now the 2nd time this has happened! Her phone is off and she hasn't even called. Who the hell does that??? I had my son at 17 and that would never cross my mind!!! He is an amazing baby very good and has the kindest eyes and brightest smile! All I know is I have a few choice words for her I have given her the benefit until now. She is gonna miss out on so many amazing things with him. HE IS ONLY A BABY ONCE! I love him to pieces and I can only PRAY that she will pull her head out of her ass sooner than later people around here are really starting to talk and well it's not good.  He deserves a fair chance at life. I mean seriously look at that face <3 How could you not fall in love with him?!?!


Love you baby Konner!

My Dearest Nanny!

So about 2 weeks ago my Nanny that is 89 years old had a stroke. Then went into a home on Monday I went and had a GREAT day with her I actually got some laughs out of her and some conversation. I also got to help feed her. I was a good day well then on Tuesday she had another stroke and is now in the hospital again I'm not sure that she is strong enough to pull out of this :( I've been praying for her comfort, strength and health but I don't want her to suffer! I was planning on spending the day in the hospital with her today but after getting NO sleep last night I did a lot of thinking and I came to the conclusion that if she is going I don't want my last memory of her in the hospital in pain. I want to keep that last good memory of her. IS THAT WRONG??? If she does end up going back to the home I will go see her but I don't know how emotionally stable I would be at the Hospital.


I have so many memory with her as a child just my son's age, she was so much fun and always a pleasure to be around don't get me wrong when we where bad (she watched 4 of us grandkids) she has a nice switch tree waiting for our little tooshie's... It's funny that now that seems to be a good memory LOL Georgia Adams is an amazingly strong lady and has alway kept our family together.This may be a rough holiday season but I'm hoping we can get 1 more Christmas out of her.


I thought I'd add a nice picture of my nanny and my son Jordin

Happy Holidays to all!
