American Honey: Life is good at the beach

Life is good at the beach

I'm in Florida visiting my best friend this week.

I brought Kailey with me, for a girls week!!

Kailey said the beach was sooooooo much fun! It was so good to see her having fun, all her worries washed away, being a kid!

Yeah, so I'm starting a journey to find me, so why not try new things?! That's me in the ocean. Yup, Ive always been scared to walk into the water. But today, I did it, and I even boogie boarded (is that a word) once too. It may not seem like much, but for me it was a big deal to try something new, and overcome a fear.

If the sand wasn't so messy, I could definitely live at the beach.

And with a view like this, I, for once, didn't have a care in the world. I needed this vacation more than I knew. A best friend is a best friend for a reason. The one person I can talk to and cry and be crazy with. And she understands. And still loves me. Let the healing begin!

P.S. Rachel is Awesome!

You Make Me Smile

The funny things my kids say on a daily basis that make me smile.

Tavin 08/05/2012
That's President Obama!

Tavin 10/18/2011
Laying on my bed, he was looking at my Victoria's Secret catalog. He turns the page, and points, that pitty gul, that pitty gul, that pitty gul. They start early! PS it was the winter clothing catalog, no bras and panties, the models were fully clothed.

Tavin 10/16/2011
"No, you crazy!"

Tavin 09/20/2011
Kailey and Tavin were bathing together. Tavin leans back in against the tub wall and puts his hands behind his head and says, "How was your day?" When did he grow up?!!

Kailey and Andre 07/25/2011
Walking around the commissary and Kailey says, while hanging on the front if the shopping cart, "Mommy, I'm your GPS. Turn. Left." And Andrew chimes in, "In two miles." Hehe, they make me smile!!

Andrew 07/16/2011
The kids and I were looking at my baby book. Me, "My first word was drink." Kailey, "What was your second word?" Andrew, without missing a beat, "Oh crap." enough said.

Tavin 07/09/11
"My legs broken", he says falling to the floor not wanting to walk.

Andrew 07/05/11
"Mommy, do you know why there are so many bad people in China?" Me, "No, buddy, why?" Andrew, "Ninja's" I still giggle when I think about it.

Kailey 06/12/2011
We went to have our nails painted and as we sat under the lights to let them dry, Kailey says "Mommy, I'm the cutest girl in here." Who can argue with that???

"Why?", "Why?", "Why"? "*SIGH*

Kailey 06/08/2001
"Mommy, how come there isn't summer break in Georgia?" "There is Kailey, what do you mean?" "Then how come Rain Rain and Pop Pop don't have summer break?"

Andrew 06/03/2011
"Mama, Kailey just said a bad word.", "What word was that?" "She called me a crazy head." "That's not a bad word, you are a crazy head!" followed by unstoppable giggles.

Kailey 05/28/2011
"Woooowwwww, Mommy, are we in Paris??", "No, Kailey, we are in Paducah, Kentucky."
