American Honey: Finally...

Finally...

Today was my last day at Michaels house. I packed up my U-Haul and came home to Georgia. Before I left, we had a talk. A much needed, adult conversation. The in's and out's of our relationship, are ours alone. But, we are remaining friends. I love the man, always will. But, and this is a huge BUT, I will no longer be controlled by him. I am my own person, and everything he is 'providing' me is deserved. I stood by him for nine years. And I deserve EVERYTHING I am getting. So, please, no more judgement. I am finally standing on my own two feet (well, mommy and daddy are helping a smidgin) And become the person I have always dreamed me to be. I may be rough around the edges, and totally fabulous. But I am who I am, so love me for me and not who you want me to be.

Ok, here is how I see it. You absolutely deserve what he is providing. You were more of a wife to him than most. You stood by his side. Held down the home front and welcomed him home with open arms every time. You are a wonderful person and such a strong woman. Never EVER forget that.

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."
