Priorities..

When I have friends going through hell, I feel like I truly have nothing to complain about.

And in reality, there is nothing to complain about.

I feel like things are now falling into place and our life is where it should be at this moment.

I'm glad I gave up my serving job...

I feel like now, I get to see Robbie, I get to see Lia and best of all, I get to see them both at the same time regularly... which was very rare before.

Before, Robbie was gone by the time I woke up, I'd drop Lia off so I could go to work, Robbie would pick her up when he got off of work and I'd get home to a sleeping household.

That was definitely something to complain about.

I feel like the less time we spent as a family or a couple, the more things would go wrong.

Now that I work WAY better hours, I work more hours, but since the shifts are better, I get to spend nights and weekends as a family.

Sometimes, I work 6 days a week, but that's ok. Everyone has to do that sometimes!!

The point that I'm getting at, I feel like as a household, we are so much happier.

Robbie and I are back to our playful and obnoxious selves. (not sure if that's a good thing .::hehe::.)

Lia just lights up when we get to be a trio.

She gets hyped up and runs around everywhere making sure she is heard,

makes us read books and play.

Do our "pat pat pat" (Little Einsteins, a new favorite show of her's)

When I dreamed of being married and a mom... when I dreamed of what my household would be...

I think we have got it down.

 

 

Our house has more laughter than I could have ever imagined.

I have such a happy and perfect little girl.

An AMAZING husband, that to be honest, is too good.

He is the rock of the household.

The one that holds me and the house together. He can calm me, like no one else can.

My family pushes me to my limits sometimes, I'm sure I'm not the only mom/wife to say that.

I think that's how we, as moms and wifes, learn to keep our sanity.

If we everything went our way all of the time, how in the world would we be able to handle any hardships that came our way.

Moms are SUPPOSED to strong women.

Our kids look up to us for everything.

There innocence is incredible.

 

 

Our kids lean on us for guidance, patience, strength, etc.

All we can do is hope that they gain our best assets...

Like the strength and work ethic of their fathers

and the patience and heart of their mothers.

I think in the end, that's all that really matters.

Always trying to show our best to our kids.

My family is the happiest it's ever been.

I have never had more hope for our future.

for me, it's a matter of priorities..

I left a job with the potential to make more money that I can now,

HOWEVER, I wanted something steady, something I could count on every week.

And above all, I wanted to see more of my family.

Lia won't be this young forever and I don't want to just slip right through it without blinking.

I'm not sure if anything from this blog post is making sense,

it doesn't matter though.

 

 

I have this blog to document moments that I might forget later on... thoughts, feelings, triumphs, hardships.

I want my kids to know that as a family, we can get through anything.

That their mom was real and honest and definitely not perfect.

That as parents, we do our very best and that they are the single most important things to us.

Family has never been more important to me than it is now..

I'm so proud to be part of our amazing family, we have amazing parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends.

We could have never expected to be more blessed.

Life is good.

Appreciate the little things and learn what's most important.
