Life is a Beach, I'm just playing in the sand.

I love my boys. They are difficult and they drain all my energy, but they are soooo cute! I love their little cute voices.. Not looking forward to their voices changing, but that's a long ways off!

We are keeping them really busy this fall. They are continuing swim lessons, but a new facility called AquaTotas. They are national and are opening up a new one by my home in mid September. So they will be doing Swim once a week on Fridays starting Sept 20th. We also signed them up for Soccer and baseball! YIKES!! How are we going to do this? I have NO idea, but hopefully, they won't have too much conflict with games and practices.. Who knows..  So that pretty much takes up almost every evening this fall! LOL!! 

I have a speech therapy appointment for Preston Sept 3rd. He's having some issues and hard to explain over typing.  The Summer has flown by! School starts August 26th and we never got to do the Zoo , the Perot Museum and some other places. They will be wearing uniforms at Primrose's Private Pre-K class and I love it! Won't have to buy that many clothes! But I do need to buy them some new shoes! They go through shoes like crazy!!  I'm cheap when it comes with their shoes though. I do have some coupons for The Finish Line, but does anyone have any suggestions on wear to go?

I have a friend who is the Director of Communications at Six Flags over TExas and she provides us 4 tickets every year to go, so the boys are excited about that!

Gotta run, but here are some photos

Why can't things work out? Nothing is easy. Everyone is different. People don't understand. No one.  Life is so full of ups and downs.. You don't know this when your a kid. It's sucks. I envy my little boys who get upset over things that seem like such a big deal.  I laugh to myself. If they only knew what's it store. If they knew how much pain there is in the world. How much hatred... I hope they know they are loved no matter what from their mom and dad. Right now, mommy is the world to them. Not so much daddy, but I know that will change in the coming years and they will not want to go with me anymore but stay with daddy. It's nice to feel so cherished loved, 24/7.  They need you. They need your approval.

What do us as parents do? We try our best to teach them.. No one is perfect. I'll make mistakes and I know I've already have, but like my dad says, "All you can do is your best".   So I try to do my best most of the time and that's all I can do.

If you fail at things, you HAVE to move on. Otherwise you will be depressed and succeed at nothing.  So when life sucks, move on, think of the "great" things you DO have and strive to do better and know that you "know" better and be grateful.

My dad always said to me growing up that, "Life is not fair and Nothing is free". So true. The ball is in my court and I have control over me and how I am.. 


This is my learning lessons of my 34th birthday... Hopefully, by 35 next year.... things will be better.

Nice to have a blog to write things down sometimes....

On an exciting note, Hoping to visit Greece in 2014!!! Sister Trip is here upon us!!!
