Probably tired of hearing this but....

TUFF I'M TELLING YOU AGAIN ANYWAY....
and hope...really hope more parents out there have the same 
kind of relationship with their children...its a wonderful thing :)

I am so thankful for the wonderful relationship that I have with my children!!!

My oldest is in college in Florida and I still feel almost (almost) 
as close as if he were still living with me....from the I love you's and miss you's that he texts so often to the 

much important conversations from one extreme to another and of course the random pics he sends

regarding things he wants to share or him being silly

MAN I AM ONE LUCKY LADY :)

AND SO VERY THANKFUL AND PROUD OF THE 

WONDERFUL (AND SILLY) 
MAN MY SON TURNED OUT TO BE

Just in the past month some of his random things that I adore him for sharing with me

The recording studio Tom and Garrett put together
which is actually what he is in school for

Tom's Fake tattoo he sent to try to give me a heart attack which didn't work

close but no cigar son

(we discussed him not getting tattoos below the elbow until he graduates)

He later informed me it was a sharpie

I told him that he should save it and send it to his father

which of course he said absolutely not 

(he would have a heart attack)

Goofball Tom with his friend Chelsie's hair extensions in

I ROCK....WOOT WOOT!!!!

Here is a little motivation for my lil friends

It's your life

don't just sit back

and watch it fly by

GET OFF THE COUCH

GET YOUR REAR IN GEAR!!!!

Trust me its tough...

there are times on Saturday mornings and I go out the night before and I lay back down in that bed

(several times)

after the alarm goes off....

BUT  THEN LAY THERE AND THINK

I HAVE COME SOOOO FAR

TO JUST THROW IT AWAY!!!

(actually I think about what I used to look like and 

what an unhealthy life I was living and then get my

buns right out of bed then...I AM SOOO NOT KIDDING)

and for what another half hour of sleep or

 laying in bed thinking of excuses or other things I should be doing....

SCREW THAT!!!!

68 lbs now

THAT IS AMAZING

AND

I DID THAT ON MY OWN

(watching carbs and working out and tons and tons of determination)

I  F&$*ING  ROCK!!!!!

These are things I think about....

NOW THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT

Can't wait to make one of these
