Parents

Tims dad has recently moved in with us. My own mother is not speaking to me. And now I am wondering what my relationship with Sarah will be like when she is an adult. I keep telling her I love, accept, and support her no matter what... but if my own mom cant do that, can I? I hope I can, or we are in big trouble! I got the highest compliment at work today. I was told by a family member of one of our residents that she likes me because Im real. I am who I am with no excuses or apologies. Thanks to the Love of my life. Im a blissfully happy girl.

Helicopter Mommy

Yep, thats me. I call the school and make sure she made it, I learn the new ways of doing long division so I can help out, Im the ever present, all seeing, all knowing Mother. I want whats best for her 24/7, I know THE best, fastest, most efficient ways of getting her goals accomplished, and my child's safety, security, happiness, and overall well-being are my first and foremost thoughts of the day. "ME" time is a concept unknown to myself. A legend or myth that single women who live in a poopless, pukeless, screamless fairyland are privy to enjoy. But I, wouldnt trade a tear stained, sweatpantsed, stretchmarked, (Ive recently upgraded to pre PMS also) blessed day for me time. Im a hovering over bearing over protective helicopter mommy and dang proud of it! Thats directed at my Honey, who points this out constantly! :)
