The moments of silence!

 


I picked this picture because this is how my life is, for the most part. I have not really stopped for the past few weeks,  I knew I was tired, but when you're going, going, going you don’t notice it. This morning I actually had the energy to wake up and do yoga, now I did about 7 minutes of yoga since Maliyah woke up, but in those first few minutes of just grounding myself, I was actually able to feel my true emotion and that is brokenness. The past five years have been tough, yes I have had good times, but I have had very sorrowful times as well. Divorce is never easy, even for the person that chooses divorce. Some people might think that it is a party over here, but it is not, I hate time sharing, I hate new people in my kid's lives, I hate all the emotions that I get from them on a daily basis. The sadness, of them, saying I don’t want to go to Dad’s and when they don’t get their way, I want to go to Dad’s. The knowing until they are 18 years old, they do not get to choose what house they are at, at any given time. All of that emotion came in that moment of silents, but say I never did any yoga or meditation, I would just go about my day, ignoring the brokenness I felt in that moment. The one thing about feeling is that you deal with it. And then you move on. May I never lose those still moments that helps me deal with life.

This guy got braces!

  This guy got braces! Mommy has been planning for this for about a year. Out of all of my kids, he has had the most dental work, but he has been so strong and such a champ. From fillings to getting 4 teeth pulled at one time because he did not have enough room in his mouth. Right now, he is complaining about the discomfort, but I let him know that we can do hard things. I can't wait to show him the progress at the end. Teaching our children that yes life hurts sometimes and that life can be hard is so important. We can't promise them an easy life, but we can promise to help navigate them through it. Red is his favorite color, so today for Julian I chose Red. 

The Healthy Mom

  This is the Healthy Mom Blog! I was sitting one day and really thinking about what I actually enjoy, like really enjoy. Because the last few years have been really hard. I have started to hate being a Mom and yes I said hating being a Mom. As a Mom when you think these thoughts, your next thought is that I'm a bad Mom, I just thought the words I hate bringing up the next generation and then I realized, I didn't hate being a Mom, I hated being Mom and Dad. So I decided then and there, I was going to do something I enjoy, I do enjoy being a Mom, but that is just it. Just being a mom, not all the extra stuff. So this is where this blog came from. To show what I enjoy in life! That is being a Mom, Fitness, health, and nutrition. Some of my favorite topics and some of my biggest soapboxes. I can do this thing called life!
