Why can't I be here?

In my new kitchen putting things away, organizing drawers and cupboards. Putting things in our new fridge. The smell of the new floor and the new appliances makes me smile. We have worked so hard to get to this point and I cant believe it's finally here. I'm finally unpacking boxes in our new home.

I'm here at work dreaming of being in the kitchen with boxes all around me, listening to good music and putting things away is my instant happy place. :O)

Life is good, and we are blessed.

She Found Her Spot

She found her spot.
As she took her first call from a boy, she began to nestle down in the kitchen. Sitting on the cold tile with her hand pressing the phone close to her ear. As she sat there and talked to him I realized my daughter had moved on from being this young child with concerns only of her babies and cartoons, or play time, she now had feelings of butterflies in her tummy and constant thoughts of this boy. Her tone in her voice as she spoke to him was different. She was much softer and her words were calculated. Her laugh and giggles were honest and pure. To this boy on the other end of the phone, she is to him this funny, smart and attractive girl.

In her mother’s eyes though, she would always be those things.

Good times 

Missing u

I miss watching you sleep while I driving you to the babysitters
I miss hearing, "Can you turn the heater up, I'm cold"
I miss your little body in the passenger seat
I miss lugging you out of the car and into the warm babysitters house
I miss hearing, "I love you mom, have a nice day"

I miss seeing your little face daily and hearing your sweet innocent laugh
You will be back in my arms in 3 months and I will hug you tight and keep you close to me.
I will once again be able to smell the shampoo you used in your hair when I hold you and feel your soft little hand as you hold my hand.
All will be good again.
For now, I miss u

Missing u
