Sweet Candy: Life and its Many Surprises
at
5:50 PM
I feel like I've been sucked into a tornado without warning. Life has it's up's and down's, I know, but lately it's only been downs. My brother announced on Christmas eve that he & his family are moving several states away in only a few weeks. I am very close to him, so this move will be much harder on me than other family members. Coping with this drastic change has spun my world around. But to make matters even worse, my older sister announced just a few days later, that she is also planning on moving, even farther, as soon as she hears back from a job. And to make matters worse, my parents then announced they also want to move but to an entirely different location. so I am faced with a difficult decision. Do I stay here, the place I've known my whole life? Do I leave with my parents, who are very caring & supportive? Do I move with one of my older siblings, both of whom I'm so close to? I feel trapped, confused & sad....sad that the people I love the most are going in different directions & no matter which road I choose....all roads will drastically affect me and my family.
Pixie Mama: The "Mo" Factor

This weeks blog will be short but so sweet. As a full believer in Angels and those who watch over us, I know they are here with me and Mini Me every day! Enjoy the blog!
Every morning I make Mini Me tell me everyone he loves. I do this so he works on saying names. We ran through the usual today when Mini Me shocked the.......well he shocked me to say the least. Mini Me never got to meet my grandma or grandpa. His middle name is for them, mainly my grandma. He says his middle name Mo instead of Monroe. Today after telling me "love pawpaw, love nana, love pop pop an a me" he tells me "love GG Mo an Pop Mo" I didn't cry. I held him tight and told him they love him too very much. I'm still confused. How did he know? I call my grandma Memaw and tell him that Great Memaw in heaven would of loved him so much. I don't really talk about my grandpa.I don't really remember much about him anymore. Don't get me wrong, I try hard to recall anything, but it's been so long. It all just feels so out of the blue. I may not be too sure where this came from but I did decide instead of a nap time book we would read Memaw's letter to us. I love my boy but sometime some of the things he will say or do leads me to believe he knows and understands more than he should for his age. Lord help me when he is in kindergarten.
