Tag : not art at all

I’m wondering what this little beauty is called.
It’s too pretty to be just a weed.
If you know, please leave a comment with the name!
I was at the hospital with my 6yr old daughter picking up my mom…this was the funny that occured.
Mom: Halle, did you remember to bring my walker?
Me: Yep, it’s in the van.
J: Grandma…Why didn’t you bring your walker here?
Mom: Because I came by ambulance. I was taken out on a stretcher.
*long pause*
J: Did they pull you?
*hysterical laughter from both mom and I ensued*
….get it… stretch…pull… Bueller, Bueller….
BTW–mom is fine…she thought she might have been having a heart attack but it was determined that she had hurt her left arm while sleeping…
Before I was a Mom,
I never tripped over toys
or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn’t worry whether or not
my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom,
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind
and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held down a screaming child
so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night
watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held a sleeping baby just because
I didn’t want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn’t stop the hurt.!
I never knew that something so small
could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much..
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom,
I didn’t know the feeling of
having my heart outside my body..
I didn’t know how special it could feel
to feed a hungry baby.
I didn’t know that bond
between a mother and her child.
I didn’t know that something so small
could make me feel so important and happy.
Before I was a Mom,
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth,
the joy,
the love,
the heartache,
the wonderment
or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn’t know I was capable of feeling so much,
before I was a Mom.
I just noticed that I missed my Blogoversary!!!!
It was 3 days ago!!!!
Hopefully our wedding anniversary won’t go by as unnoticed my me… 15 years on Sunday. :)
Since my last post almost all my time and energy has been taken up dealing with my folks and their health issues.
My life feels a bit chaotic right now. I felt this kaleidoscope I made a while back summed up what my mind has been doing for the past week.
I hope to get back on track soon by doing at least a little bit of art now and again. As well as keeping up with the altered book blog class I am taking.
Apparently this plant doesn’t know what time of the year it is. This is the first blossom, of many, that has fully opened.
It gave me a good opportunity to practice some more macro shots with my camera. I love macro photography!
This plant was given by my kids school library staff last year for volunteering. Pretty simple job that gave my legs a good workout with all the squats putting the books back on the low shelves. :)
