Po-tay-to....Pa-tah-to.... 4 months ago

So I’m wondering if the new pup we adopted a couple of weeks ago counts for anything? LOL….I actually got two Mother’s day cards from friends because of the little furball…..but seeing as I didn’t birth him…. Although as we go through the training phase I’m thinking 20 hours of arduous labor may be easier…......
Anyway…..just the ramblings of an over tired new doggy mamma….lol

This is one of those goals that’s under “whenever it happens it happens” so I’m not rushing anything…just enjoying the wait and collecting ideas for when the time comes.
I was baking cookies last night to bring in to the office and I stumbled across the recipe for animal crackers/cookies. You know…the ones in the little box that looks like a train car.They were so easy….and tasted soooooo GOOD!! My husband loved them. I made about 5 dozen regular sized cookies with the dough last night and will make more this weekend with the mini cookie cutters. I had 4 of them already so they are the right size to make animal crackers.Although I don’t have any animal shapes just Christmas shapes.
I suddenly had visions of making them all the time for my own kids. Spending hours tediously cutting out and baking little toddler-hand sized animal cookies and sending them out toplay with a little baggie full to share with friends or siblings and loving every minute of it.
Gave me one of those “warm fuzzy” moments….....
oh Lord….I’m going to be one of those obnoxiously sweet PTA moms aren’t I? good Lord when did that happen?!



Me? A mom??? 3 years ago

When I was little I wanted children but as I got older I began to change my mind. In fact over time I made myself hate them. I had convinced myself that I would be a bad mother because I was too self focused. In truth, I WAS too self focused. when I met my husband though something began to change inside of me. It was gradual of course….but then one day I realized not only did I not hate them but I actually LIKED them. It grew from there and now the thought of creating and sharing the responsibilities of a little life touches something deep inside of me that I didn’t even know was there. So someday soon hopefully my husband and I will get to experience this together.
