Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow

Yesterday...
When I think back on the past I can say without a doubt I had a happy childhood.  Growing up I had a loving family, of course there were dysfunctions, but what family doesn't have those.  I know I was loved and I know I was happy and the way I was raised made me the person I am today.  No regrets or what ifs hang over my head.

Today...
Today my life continues to be happy...oh sure I have my wants, but I have no needs.  Today I want my children to go to bed happy and know they are loved.  I want my husband to know I will be there when he goes to sleep and when he wakes up and plan on being there for at least the next 50 years.

Tomorrow...
Tomorrow I look forward to my children grow into confident and caring individuals who will be able to think for themselves.  I want to help raise a generation both in my home and in my classroom of people who care for those around them.

8 Weeks and Counting

Spring Break is over...

8 weeks left of for school.

Will I make it?  About this time every year I ask myself the same question and every year I make it with my sanity still in tact.

I cannot wait for summer this year.  Last summer was rough because I was in my last trimester of my pregnancy and did not want to do anything.  It was too hot to move and every time I moved too much I began having contractions.  I felt bad for my girls because they did not get to do a lot of fun stuff.

My plan for this summer is to be a summer of fun.  Lots of time swimming, trips big and small, and good memories (I hope) for all of us.

Now to get through these 8 weeks...
