A Better Mom



So I have been thinking a lot lately about being a working mom. I really do struggle sometimes, but I don't think I could be a better mom even if a stayed home all day. I drop Coopie off at 7:40 and stay til 8. I go back and spend my lunch hour with him from 11 til 12:20ish. I pick him up at 2:45. All told I am only away for 5 and a half hours and when I pick him up I am so excited to spend all afternoon with him. I very rarely get burned out from him, because every minute is a gift. I love being a mom and I hope and pray that every day he knows how much I love him and am thinking of him. Tomorrow he is coming with me to a Art Educators Conference and we are going to have a great time.

Home Sweet Home


Nickolas and i started house shopping this weekend. I am so excited. A house of our very own. It is kind of scary though. Cooper will be 31 years old before we pay off a thirty year mortgage. Today we are going with a Realtor to look at a house AHHHH.

Coopers Chompers


I was finally able to get a picture of Coopers teeth. He just got over his latest ear infection and we finally moved him to his own room!
