American Honey

Saturday, July 2, 2011

Funny how time heals. Two weeks I was struggling to get through my days. Crying all the time. And today, I'm just so lucky to have the life I have. I have amazing parents, wonderful kids and Ive learned through this blog an amazing group of friends who are very supportive! What girl wouldn't be happy?
Last night was the 4th celebration here in Warner Robins. Michael is in town, so my parents, me and the kids went with him to the fireworks and concert. Sitting on the blanket, every year before he would hold me while we watched the fireworks. This time, he held Kailey and Andrew and I wasn't sad. That isn't my life anymore. I am embracing my new, better life. Granted, I wake up alone, but God will give me that in due time. Right now, I am enjoying finding myself. Being lost is horrible and I didn't think I could ever come out of it. But this journey is one that I am grateful to travel.

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."
