*you*

Tim and Lit'l P


to you for taking me as i am for the last 13+ years
to you for being a fabulous father
to you for knowing the santa cruz boardwalk was what we all needed
to you for letting me do what i need to do when i need to do it
to you for being there for me
to you for not thinking i'm crazy for the thoughts i have
to you for holding my hand
to you for giving me that hug at just the right moment
to you who lays across from me with 2 kids in between us
to you who laughs at my jokes or my funnies
to you who makes me laugh like no other
to you who loves "Friends" like i do
to you who will do just about anything for me
to you who knows exactly what to do when the time comes
to you, my partner in this crazy life we lead

one day at a time

k_texture1.jpg
i experimented with textures ~ not sure it's working :)


trying to see this photo as it is meant to be and that is .... nothing better than just sitting by the ocean/bay and digging for sand.

that is what my kids teach me daily ...is to slow down, relax and enjoy the small moments and stop being in such a hurry to do what???

enjoy the moments and realize all i have to really do is take it one day at a time.

the craziness will pass ...maybe...

so random...

p_and_me.jpg
confused penelope and her scatterbrain mom

my mind is mush lately...can't keep anything straight and I'm just all over the place.

scatterbrain I think they call it!!!

~really wanting to clear the major clutter that has become my home
~not getting any sleep and it shows!
~trying to be "that" mom who has it all together with 2 kids....don't know how ~any of "those" moms do it
~not fitting into any clothes yet and it's majorly depressing!
~my best friend is getting married in september and i'm so psyched ...but so need to lose this weight!
~the confused look on penelope's face all the time...makes me think she came from a former life and this wasn't what she was expecting for the next one...
~this new movie coming out called "penelope"
~walks in the neighborhood and loving all the new spring blooms - spring has sprung!
~up at 3am and being delirious...seriously not getting any sleep
~thought the 2nd time around would be better since we knew what to expect
~surprises in the mail
~visitors with FOOD! gotta love them
~escaping for 30 minutes alone and thinking this is the best ever!
~feeling i'm just not cracked up for all this

~kadison giving penelope kisses
~kadison coming into my room "whatta know mama?" " not much honey!"

~watching Oprah's Big Give and crying my eyes out!
~getting addicted to Project Runway - uh oh! When I was home with Kadison those first months I was totally addicted to "Felicity" ...this can't be good.


~wanting healthy food and having no clue on where to begin...especially with chocolate in the house!

totally random thoughts of the day....
