But if any man provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. 1 timothy 5:8

It Is What It Is.

No matter how much I try and no matter what I do... I can not and will never be able to please everyone!
I am not perfect and never will be... No one is!
All I can do is make sure that I do what is right by me and by my kids.
All I plan on doing for the rest of my time here is to make sure that I take care of me and mine.

I choose to have JOY and PEACE in my life from here on out.

I tell the truth and no matter what anyone thinks it doesn't do me any good. I cant please everyone and I refuse to suffer for it.
They can believe what they want to believe; I can not and will not dwell on things of the past because I learned the hard way that it gets you NO WHERE!
I have made peace with things in my life and I will not let anything or anyone bring me down.
I am moving on and if anyone wants to be a part of my life they will make the effort that it takes to do so.

I love all my fellow blog readers and I love the reads that I have everyday.
Bless you all and Have a fabulous day!

Saying Goodbye Is Never Easy!

It's never easy to say goodbye to someone... Its never easy to have to let someone go.
I know that I am in pain when I have to do these things, but I know that there are reasons unknown that we have to go through these things in life.
Sadly we lost a special person yesterday due to an accident that never should have happened.

He was one of the nicer people that made the effort to get to know you when you met him and he was a really sweet guy. A great father and a great man all around.
You will be greatly missed Johnny!
Rest In Peace!

Busy Weekend!

Both my babies are active in their own activities and I am thankful that they are into their own things.
We are going to be very busy this weekend.
Serenity will be performing with the high school top-cats team during the high school football game tomorrow night... and then Saturday morning will be Andrew's first official football game with the Sharks team that he is on.
We are excited to start the football season and to watch our son play. I am also grateful for such good friends (more like family) that come and watch him play when they don't have to.
Its going to be a crazy weekend and I can't wait to get it started!!

My baby girl is sick :(

You can tell that she doesn't feel well.
I can't stand it when my kids are sick!
She woke up with a sore throat and a fever... I'm hoping that I can nip this in the butt before it spreads to everyone else!! Lord help us!

Remembering all the Pain

Ok! So I am totally missing my friends from Ky right now. Sometimes I sit and think about what it would have been like had my mom not decided to abandon me and send me to live with my dad in TX. For a long time I hated her for doing what she did and at times I think about it and I still get angry. I had a great life in Ky... I had friends and FAMILY living there. Things weren't great but I was HOME and I was HAPPY! I know that if things hadn't turned out the way that they did that I wouldn't have the Loves of my life right now! I am eternally grateful to God for my children and my husband. I hate that I had to stand at the terminal and say goodbye to the bestest friend that God gave me and know that I wasn't coming back...

You see my mom had told me that I was going to visit my dad for 2 weeks; so I was excited and nervous at the same time. I was happy to go see him and scared cause I hadn't seen him in 4 years. I didn't know who my dad was anymore so I was scared to death that I wasn't going to like my trip at all. Needless to say... my mom decides to tell me right before I bored the plain to fly and see him for what I thought was a visit; that I wasn't coming back. That this trip was permanent and that I was going to live with my father. I had no idea!!

I told her that I hated her and that I never wanted to see her again... I didn't and I meant every word.

I had to tell my best friend that I wasn't coming back and say goodbye forever... (not knowing that I would come and visit from time to time when I could)

It hurts to have to deal and go through something like this when your a sophomore in high school.

I am grateful that to this day I am still friends and will forever love my friend Becky. I have gained a friend through her (her Hubby WALLY) and the love of a little girl that is her daughter! I LOVE YOU REBECCA!!

Football Season is here!!

This little guy is so eager and excited that he is finally old enough to do something that is age appropriate!
NCYFL Football!! We are so excited as well! I cant wait to see this little guy play... Practice has already been a hoot to watch!
