American Honey: February 2012

Monday, February 27, 2012

Months of pain and heartache. Still no closure. When exactly does that come? I am so tired of being in this place, I want to feel again. Know what happiness is, feel the love from my children. What's it going to take? Anyone have any ideas or suggestions to get me outta this valley that I'm sitting in. I am so much more than this, but I just can't seem to find my motivation or reason to keep going, it's easier to wallow in self pitty. Someone please give me a reason to get my ass outta here!!

Life's A Dance You Learn As You Go

Life's a Dance You Learn as You go, Sometimes you Lead, Sometimes You follow, Don't worry about what you don't know...

I dunno. Right now I am in the lead, going who knows where!!!! There are no dance steps to show me what my next move is. I have the sexy dancing shoes, just no direction. I just wonder when all this struggle will finally pay off.

It's been months and months of struggling. I feel as if I am no closer now than I was last June. I'm a hot southern mess and just don't know how to become all that I know I can be.

I know what I want. That's for damn sure. How to get there, I dunno!!!!!!!!!

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."
