Giving Back

Ok....so got my DIY girlfriend over at my moms and we are tearing it up!! ...The over 30 year old popcorn ceiling, cabinets, wallpaper, paneling, and so on!! Yeah it is as bad as it sounds but soon my mom will have a kitchen and living room that she deserves. So all this work (while I am 7 month preggo) is for my mom...one word to describe her....selfless. She is the most giving person I have ever met. You need her...she is there, above and beyond!! She always does for her family and yet not much appreciation is giving besides on that one little day a year called mothers day. Which is pretty pathetic honestly!! So...I have been wanting to redo my moms kitchen for a long time....the time has come!! I have a girlfriend that is the DIY queen so she is painting and glazing the cabinets for me..along with a few other secrets...ok ALOT of other secrets!! : ) and I am going to tile her backsplash, paint ...and a few other secrets!! : ) I can not wait to see the expression on her face when she sees her new kitchen and living room!!
To mom: Thank you for all you do!! You are appreciated and LoVeD so much more than you know. I pray that I can be as selfless with my family as you have been with us all these years. I love you!!

Life

Life...I feel lately such an urge to savor every part of life. I just feel beyond blessed in life. I am content with where I am, I know that is because of the lord..he is the only one who can give you comfort and contentment. I am soooo very in love with my husband just as I was 12 years ago! I am blessed to have a wonderful daughter and a son on the way! We are able to have land, a home, a car...and many more luxeries that we as a americans have become accustom to having. How did I get to this stage in my life..where I am married with children..and all these things?? I can only thank the lord above for all he has chosen to give me... I feel so RICH..although I have hardly any $$ in the bank. No matter what life throws at me, hopefully I can always remember that little things do not matter. The lord, my family and friends are upmost improtant to me!!!!
