Santa Time


Today we had breakfast with Santa.  It was a lot of fun this year.  All week anytime we saw a Santa I would make a big deal about him and Kohen would say "ho ho ho".  At the breakfast he wasn't so sure about Santa until I put him on his lap and told Kohen to tell Santa hi.  He sat on his lap smiled and just stared at him.  Kohen got a candy cane.  About 5 minutes later when he was done with his mini candy cane he climbed back in his lap and got another candy cane.  He got up in his lap a total of 5 times.  He's no longer afraid of Santa.  Can't wait to take him to the mall Santa.  I was really dreading taking him because I wasn't sure how he was going to react. I am so excited that he loves Santa. Now to teach him the meaning of Christmas!  On the 21st the little man and I will be on our way to spend two weeks in Colorado.  I love spending Christmas with my family.  After Christmas my family and I are going to go up to the mountains and spend about a week up there.  I am so ready for that!  A vacation, some me time so ready for it.  A bit sad and disappointed that my hubby wont be joining us though.

To blog or not to?

I'm honestly not sure why I stopped so long ago. I wish I didn't because looking back I love the memories that I did write about. Then of course life happens. I can't believe it's been so long since I have written anything.  I used this as sort of a diary and I'm so sad that I didn't keep up with it.  I'm going to be adding bits and pieces here and there from the past as I find them. Lots will probably be from Facebook posts.  I want to be able to look back and see life's blessings. The good and the bad. The bad is what makes you treasure the good that much more. It makes you stronger. It makes me lean on God that much more. My faith just grows and grows. I want to share it all with everyone that wants to read about our lives.

Faith and Fear

In the beginning of our journey I was told by so many that it’s gets easier I’m not going to lie it doesn’t get easier you just find a new normal. It’s an illusion that’s it’s easier. You still have the stress, endless doctors appointments, therapy appointments, medication changes, routines that are being changed, new people coming in and out of your lives friendships that come and go etc.  My anxiety attacks are no longer happening multiple times a day for no rhyme or reason (I can’t tell you the last time I had one actually 🙌🏻 also knocking on some wood right now)  I had made a post the other day about being worried when I dropped Kaiya off at school. I surprisingly have had very little anxiety through this process this year. Last spring completely different story. I have come to the realization that for the most part whatever happens to Kaiya is out of my hands. I can do everything within my power to protect her and she may still one day be taken from me before I w...

Things Kohen says

I’m going to update this as I find them and he says them. 3/26/2018 Conversations with Kohen on the way to school. K-Do you think they will take away our 2nd amendment? M-No, but they might try.  What happens when they do take away that? K-Like what Hitler did, he was controlling and powerful, killed a lot. Kohen actually went into more depth than what I put on here and I was pretty surprised which I shouldn’t be. 2/23/2018 On the way home from school Kohen looks at Kaiya and says “ugh...mean mom, why didn’t she take your braces off? Don’t worry I’ll take them off” “There you go, now give me your other foot so I can get that one too.” “Is that better?” “I bet your more comfortable now aren’t you?” “Mom, Kaiya smiled so she must have liked that I took them off right?” My heart just grows and grows for this boys heart. I didn’t think anything about Kaiya having her afo’s on but Kohen was very concerned that she was uncomfortable. 6/20/2015 Kohen trying to convince his ...
