First Entry

     So everyone is doing it right? Blogging that is. Why not me? I am a cool, hip, modern woman. Well not exactly. I do have a lot to say and I'm sure there is a person out there who may want to hear it. Most of all I would like to document things. I notice the older I get the more I seem to forget. It will be nice to look back at this one day and say Wow I was one crazy biotch!
     I am a wife amd a mom to three. I struggle just like most American's are doing now. I worry if my lights will be turned off tomorrow or if we can buy groceries. One day I will look back at this economy and the struggle my husband and I are going through and say we made it through. One thing I do have on my side is I am loved (hence the name of my site).
     I have a husband who I swear worships the ground I walk on. He would do anything to make me happy. All I can seem to do is complain to him and tell him what he is not doing right. I need to work on that. This constant feeling of not being satisfied and having to have everything perfect. That is my mini goal each day. Be satisfied and appreciate all the small things he does for me.
     My kids. They are... well a little crazy. I mean they have got to be the loudest people I have ever met in my life. Michael who is 8 could win a marathon in talking. He never stops. He is so smart and so nosey. He gets that from me. He has developed a passion for eating, which he also gets from me. He will ask me a different question every 30 seconds. He wants to know everything. It's a good thing, but hard for me because I do not have all the answers. As much as he drives me up the wall I have to say that he has one of the kindest hearts I have ever seen. He would help anyone that he could. He loves deep and hard and I know I will want to kill the first girl to break his heart.
     Madeline is my middle child and my only girl. She is a diva! My biggest goal in life is to keep her off the poles (It's a joke people pick your jaw up). She is always talking about how sexy she is and she thinks I am sexy too. I probably should get her eyes checked. She wants to wear make-up and did I mention she is only three? She has my attitude. When she doesn't get her way believe me there is hell to pay. She has my husband, Mike, wrapped around her finger. This man melts when he sees her. Yes I fear the teenage years.
     Morgan. Yes that is a sentence all by itself because he is my baby. My last child. My sweet little boy. He will be two in October. Before he was born I didn't know he would be my last. I had complications and we cannot have anymore kids. IHe would sleep curled up on my chest. He was best baby I have ever seen. They say that everything happens for a reason and I know God had his reasons when he told me no more kids. Morgan has given me most of my grey hairs. When he started crawling we used to call him a Tonka Truck. He would crawl over anything! Now he will climb into and onto everything. This child moves furniture around and well it's pretty hard to keep up with him. He has a horrible temper. He will throw throw things at you, smack, scream at the top of his lungs. You name it he does it. Most of the time he is really sweet, but catch him in a mood and watch out. He uses so much energy during the day tat all I have to say is night night and he runs to his bed.
     I am blessed. My kids are beautiful and healthy. They love me to death even when I am a yelling crazy mom. They all love each other very much. You can't always tell, but they do. Being a mother is hard work. You have to make lots of sacrifices but the rewards are worth it. My husband and I never go out. We always say that one day when the kids are grown we will have all the alone time we ever need. It's hard to go out when you are broke and cannot afford a sitter. I wouldn't have it any other way though.
     I think it would be nice to write a list of likes and dislikes. It will be good to know so when I write more you can understand a little about me.
