Life is challenging, but challenging is what makes our weakenesses in to strength. If you are always working on the goals to become better or whatever you are working on . The easier it will become.
Today, Alyvia threw up all over me today. Even after giving her a bath right after bed time. I had to get u clean the mess from the bed and get new pjs. During this time I was getting frustrated but there was a part of me that said Keep it under control and don't do anything or say anything stupid that you might regret. It didn't help when Hazel was screaming so loud which was giving me a headache. I wanted to stop and cry. but Alyvia needed to be taken care and Hazel needs to get to sleep. Hazel has a wonderful gift. She is a nurturer and knows when to calm down and always is compassionate with me. Immediately, she says okay mom I am going to bed kisses Lala and looks deep into my eyes and says I love you with a giggle and a warm hug. 30 secs later she was out. I texted Dad while in class cause I was still a little exhausted..
"When you feel like playing games just to socialize with your friends just think of me... I have no friends to talk to. I don't have a car to get out with my kids for fun. I get throw up all over me and no shower for a few days because my husband insists on showering every morning. I have to be creative with things to do because i'm Hazels only friend. I don't have time to go out and do things just for myself. I make sure the house tries to stay clean and the laundry is done. No one ever cares to see how I'm doing but all that doesn't matter because my first glance at Hazel in my arms I wanted nothing more than just to be the best Mom I can for her. I don't care if I don't have friends because my friends are my girls and U. I don'te mind not having a car (yah it's hard sometimes) I'm just grateful for what I have. Sometimes I just want to let the tv entertain Hazel so I can just have my time. I never fall for that because my time is with Hazel. I can go on and on and make excuses and wishes but there never going to be better than what I have now. It just Excuses. I am meant to work hard and live the moments. Moments with my famil. Next time when you feel like playing for fun, know you have it easier but also know I wouldn't trade anything but being a Mom Life is wonderful and I love you!"
After texting this to Dad, I felt better. I was happy where I was at. Hazel is nothing but Amazing!! All I want for her is simply the best. She's is an example to me. I learn from her alot. She has such great energy behind her. You can learn from your own kids. I do! Hazel Thank you for your patience! I love you alot and admire you even at 2 years old! Your my rock
Mom
Fatty!! I find it funny how the mothers that are doing an excellent job being a mom, are the ones that worry frantically!! You are doing a great job sis!! I don't think you need to worry at all!! When you came to general conference, everyone was amazed by how smart Hazel was. They could tell that she didn't merely memorize the words, rather she sounded out every single letter before she said the word, just like 6 year old would. I often hear comments of how well Hazel enunciates whatever she communicates. Fat, you have a 2year old that speaks like a 6year old!! Now if that doesn't make you a proud mommy, I don't know what will!! By their works ye shall know them, Hazel is proof of that!! Good work! I love you guys!!:)
