Well we have a had a long emotionally draining month, However I learned a few things.....
       
        Life is short, I know this and for the most part we really try to have special moments as a family and tell each other alot that we love each other and to appreciate what  we have.
 Josh's Nana really started downhill in August she was given 2-4 months and made it 10 weeks, we lost our awesome cat we had for 6 years and a week after returning home Josh's Mom had a head on collision .  What I am learning from this tiring month is......

I am allowed to let a ball drop.. This is something I have to allow myself to get over

As you may or may not know I work part time, but I am also  president of the PTA on top of my  normal mom chores. I have a hard time saying no and I also have a hard time asking for help, the flip side is that I am pretty laid back and try not to stress , I try to be involved in my children and their future. With that said I am human and I don't have to try so hard, I can let the house or dishes go, I am allowed to forget things. Its OK for me to stay in my PJ's sometimes. I  am only as good as the care I take for myself allows me to be . My kids are not going to remember the time mom didn't do the dishes or that  mom forgot she had a meeting that one day. They are going to remember that in the short time we all lived in one house we spent quality time together, they will remember that trip we took or place we went. They wont know mom forgot she had a meeting that one day

I am thankful and happy everyday for the many blessings we have, we say I love you every time one of us leaves , we don't go to bed mad and we try to do things together on a regular basis. This is what I hope they remember
