Am I the only one who dislikes Mother’s Day? I mean really. It is supposed to be this celebration about motherhood, but does it really celebrate motherhood? Mostly I feel guilt on Mother’s Day. Guilt for all the things I cannot do, and can not accomplish, and the patience I do not have, as wellContinue reading “Mother’s Day”

Misunderstanding
Recently I was speaking with a neighbor of mine when I made an observation, in which I was also included. She turned to me and said, “It’s probably because they are afraid of what you might say.” She said it in an honest, but giggly manner. I tried to brush it off, but here’s theContinue reading “Misunderstanding”
Parenting
Being a mother has to be the hardest job in the entire world. Not only did one sacrifice their body for the child/children they brought into the world, but it’s a mental sacrifice as you raise those said children. It’s amazing to me that what I thought would be the best job in the world,Continue reading “Parenting”
Faith
I sit and wonder every single day where faith has disappeared to. Faith specifically in God our Eternal Father. As an American society it seems we have decided to brush away God. Brush off his teachings and follow our brother Lucifer. Now I know that I have with that one paragraph made some leave myContinue reading “Faith”
Scout Mom
My boys love scouting. I always wanted to be a scout and loved interacting with my brothers and the troop they were in as a kid. I was seriously so excited to have my boys in scouting. Scouting has changed for us this past year, and now parents are WAY more involved. I was involvedContinue reading “Scout Mom”
Trapped
Seems weird to start a post with that title, but I think it describes the feelings in my home currently very well. We all feel trapped. Now, is this because of our own choices or others choices? Perhaps some of both. With this pandemic going on, our lives have not really changed very much, butContinue reading “Trapped”
A New Life
Recently we have all been “given” a new life. It varies for all of us, but we didn’t choose it. All of us have taken this in different strides. Not one way is incorrect, but they are certainly individual. COVID-19 is something that we all did not expect. I bet the only thing we canContinue reading “A New Life”
Dog
So… I got a dog. Well not just me, it’s for the whole family, but let’s be real it’s my dog. You know the worst part? I’m terrified of dogs. For all the dog lovers, no I didn’t have some traumatic experience with a dog when I was young, no my parents do not sayContinue reading “Dog”
Sunday
Sunday’s seem to be one of the most difficult days of the week. I find it interesting. My observations are that each person views Sunday as a day where they get to choose what they want to do, but as a family it doesn’t always work. I also feel like it’s the one day whereContinue reading “Sunday”
My First Blog Post
Be seen and not heard. -From the generation of parents before mine. I’m sitting in our family car, which is a Delta 88 Oldsmobile, right behind my father. I’m tucked in a seatbelt with my younger brother. We are sitting on top of a suitcase so we can see out the window. My parents andContinue reading “My First Blog Post”
