for all you SAHM's...

Heard on the radio today a stay-at-home is worth 120k-130k/year, taking into account all they do.


Considering there are days I literally feel like this picture looks....

I can live with that.

I am your first kiss
Your first friend
Your first love

i am your momma
happy valentines my love

Isn't it funny how babies become little people?

Here is my little 17mo old son calling for his dog to come join him on his rock.

When did he become such a little old man?!

Clueless Mom: Who am I

Perusing the $1 isle at Target today (one of my favorite places to feel legit spending $$).  Feeling like I hit the jackpot, because I had already found a) a teal shoe organizer for baby and b) Cute flower magnets. I scan the toy section with low expectation, when-what do I see--an ELMO book for $1!
"ELMO!!!" I scream as I reach down to pick up this treasure.
As I squat there, grasping this elmo book, it occurs to me I am in a public place. I look up at the adults around me and there are like four women in the aisle with me, staring at me.
 "....It's for my son" I say, a feeble attempt at legitamizing....legitamizing....


They must have thought I was insane. Who, above the age of 5, gets excited about Elmo? What is happening to me???

Oh well.
Guess I'm one of those crazies.

Sharing this....it touched my heart....maybe I'm just sentimental lately. Almost brings a tear. Once I find time--I plan to paint it on a canvas for the playroom. My son is just so worth it all.
