Stop Bullying!

Today I finally get the courage to talk about what my sweet baby girl has been dealing with at school. My heart bleeds for her so badly. The bullying became so bad she was physically and emotionally sick from it. She began to have a real fear of going to school. There was geniune feeling of hopelessness in her. Her desire to go to school had completely diminished. There were times I would find her crying in th closet because these individuals were being so cruel towards her. Finally, after feeling hopeless myself I sent out an email reaching out one last time to th teachers pleeding for thier help. With th final straw being if things don’t change her father and I would pull her out of school to homeschool her. Thank heavens we have a resolution and she feels a bit safer this week. And there is a plan in place if the bullying starts up again.

Bullying is never okay and if your child is suffering do whatever you can to help them. There are books available as well as helplines. The video below explains in full what she has gone through.

My Daughter’s Latest Obsession, LOL Dolls!

Hey ya’ll,

I am pretty sure I’m not the only one this year who has a Christmas list with
L.O.L Surprise dolls on them. For the last month, my sweet baby girl has been pressing me to buy them every time we go to the store. Well in our house we tell the kids at the end of September any toys they want. It needs to go on their Christmas list. Now if you are anything like me you know they are going to sell out. Last year I was unable to find any until mid Spring. So to eliminate having to argue with my daughter after this Christmas is over, I took the initiative to not wait and started stocking up on them early. And since Amazon has become my go-to spot for pretty much everything I want for the kids lately. That is the exact place I have been stocking up on them. Only because the last time I went to the store I could barely find any. I had no clue those little dolls were that popular. My bad!!!!! so if you don’t want to be like me check out a few I found on Amazon blow.

Mom Life Isn’t Always Sunshine & Rainbows!

Hello Everyone,

Guys, I have been extremely sleepy for the last few weeks and today wasn’t any different. Last night I had to do a home sleep study test which required me to lay on my back. Should be no problem right? Wrong! The problems I have with laying on my back is; either one it restricts my breathing or two I start choking. Either way it causes me to wake up more often then I want to. I’ve also been dealing with the average its summer kids don’t clean properly or leave their things everywhere problems. No big deal right? Wrong! I don’t have babies living here anymore. All the children are well capable of cleaning up after themselves but why should they. When they have a mother that can’t stand a hot mess of a house. So, of course you know I clean up when I shouldn’t. I always overdo, over spoil, over clean and so on and so forth. That’s just who I am. What can I say I don’t like a messy house.

Don’t get me wrong being a mom is the greatest accomplishment in my life. Not my book, not my blogs, not my youtube channel or anything else I’m doing in my life. Being a mom makes me the happiest I could ever be. However, I know this will totally negate everthing I just said about it being great. But, everyday isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. Sometimes its getting a burger with onions and no pickles when clearly you asked for no onions and extra pickles. Mom life is real life and real life is often messy and upsetting.
