Day 30 - One Last Moment

Yesterday I was sitting on the bed right in front of Brooklyn. She lays her head on the back of my shoulder out of nowhere and says "I love you Mommy". I've been waiting for the day I would hear those words ever since I found out I was pregnant. Being a mommy is definitely the best thing I will ever do :)

Day 29 - Your Aspirations

My aspirations in life are to be successful in the things that are important to me.
I want to raise happy, healthy, smart children.
I want to become a teacher who will help to change children's lives.
I want to maintain a balance in life between my family, my job, and my friends.
I want to be someone my children and my students look up to and respect.

Day 28 - Something That You Miss

I miss having some sort of free time!

Since I started school 8 weeks ago I feel like I have been running on empty and have been busy every minute of the day. I know I just need to remember that this will pay off in the end but its tiring being so busy! I'm so glad I have spring break this week so I can spend some time sleeping and being with my family and friends.

Day 26 - Your Fears

I don't believe that people should dwell on their fears. If you think about what you are afraid of, you cannot be optimistic. I choose to focus more on my hopes and the things I look forward to rather than the opposite.

Day 25 - A First

I can't think of a first that I've encountered lately. I'll go along with my last couple posts and use a picture.

My first child :)

Day 24 - Something That Makes You Cry

How about something that doesn't make me cry?

Before I was pregnant I wasn't that emotional of a person. Sure I would cry in the situations that a normal person would cry in, but not much more. But when I was pregnant, and now ever since then, I cry at everything. Every sad song. Every sad movie. A sad commercial (I know, pathetic). Literally almost everything. Hopefully my hormones go back to normal sometime soon (maybe next time I'm pregnant haha).

Day 23 - Something That Makes You Feel Better

I can sum up this one with just one picture :)


Day 22 - Something That Upsets You

Something that upsets me...

For this one I am going to talk about a movie. I watched Life As We Know It last night with Brandon. Although it was really a good movie, I bawled through half of it! Before I was a parent a movie like this wouldn't have upset me quite so much. But now that I am a parent, watching a movie like that, I think of myself in that situation right away. I feel so bad for that little girl, losing both of her parents in one night before she even really knew them. I cannot even imagine leaving my daughter in this world without Brandon and I. It's such a depressing thing to even think about. That is something that makes me upset.

Day 21 - Another Moment

For this moment I am going to pick a day last week. I don't remember exactly what day it was but it is definitely a moment I will remember.

So Brooklyn has been talking up a storm lately! I can't even count how many words her vocabulary has expanded to. I have been trying to get her to say "I love you" since she first started talking. She said it one time right after her 1st birthday but has not said it since then! In 8 months! So one day last week she's going to bed and I give her a kiss and say "I love you night night" just like I do every night when I put her to bed and she looks right up at me and says clear as day "I love you too Mommy". I about cried. I cannot believe how much she is growing up. My baby is not a baby anymore :(

Day 20 - This Month

I am so looking forward to this month!

March means:

I am one step closer to summer.
It is the perfect weather outside.
It is our first anniversary on the 21st!
I have spring break for a week.

Day 19 - Something You Regret

I believe everything happens for a reason. I know that sounds cliche, but I truly believe it to be true. There is not a think in my life I regret because I wouldn't be where I am today.

Day 18 - Your Favorite Birthday

My favorite birthday would have to be last years. This birthday was the first year I spent with my family. My husband and my daughter. The year older I turn does not matter to me. The time I spend with the people I love is what matters.
