I Had a Dream Last Night #2

I am going to visit my Mother-in-law in the hospital my husband Steve is already there. I go to check in with security at the front desk. They just ignore me, knowing my Mother-in-law is in room 122 I walk past with out incident. As I am walking up to room 122 I see a man sitting in a chair he is old about 70 and looks very worried and sad. He looks familiar and when I walk in the room I am not acknowledged. I look over to who he is so worried about it is an older lady but not my Mother-in-law. I turn to walk out and noticed how old, dry and cracked this lady's heal is and how bright red and shiny her toenails are. So I head down the hall to find out what room my Mother-in-law is in. As I get close to a waiting area down the hall I recognize two voices it is Steve's brother Nathan and his wife Kathy they to seemed very worried about the situation. they are standing in front of a window and the sunlight is coming in from it so I can't really make out their faces but I know its them. I then notice a very cute little boy of about 9 to 11 years old and he looks so much like Nathan and Kathy's daughter Abby. I hear him call for his Mom. Kathy does not answer a beautiful 30 something woman does. Its Abby and she is all grown up. I run to hug her and her son. It takes me a minute to see that they can not hear or see me either. That is when I realize that its not my Mother-in-law in room 122 I came to see it is me and that old man in the room that looked so familiar was Steve. Then I woke up.

What do you think this dream is trying to tell me?

my florida trip

Last March Steve took me to Key west I knew the trip would be a fun time when we happened upon the nautical limo.

Steve was excited to go to the Mel Fisher museum. He likes treasure and loves pirates.

I like pirates too!!!

Hot Air Balloon Rides!

Have you ever been to the free hot air balloon rides at Irvine park? I took my kids there twice the first time it was too windy and they couldn't take us up and June was pretty upset. The second time it was windy again but, they still took us up. June was pretty happy.

Yesterday I saw not one but two motorcycles with handicap license plates. If you can ride a motorcycle around how can you qualify for handicap status?

My Favorite Child

I remember when I was a child asking my parents who was their favorite child. The answer was the generic "I love all my children the same, equally". I did not believe it I could blatantly see the favoritism yet, no one would admit it. So I came to the conclusion when I was younger that parents love equally but, give discriminately. I vowed when I was a parent I would never do this abhorring act of favoritism amongst siblings. Now here I am I have four kids and the verdict is "I have a favorite". Yes, I will admit it every parent has one. Sometimes my favorite changes even daily but, there is a favorite. So I do love them equally and also favor discriminately. How can I help it I am only human. Can you guess who my favorite is right now?

Falling in Love

I remember when Steve and I were dating and I had that "I am falling in love with this guy" feeling. Well the same thing happens with my children. I start getting excited when they make eye contact with me and smile. Sometimes I just feel such an overwhelming sensation as I hold Louis all I can think to do is just squeeze him. I usually instantly regret it as the next event that happens is half digested breast milk all down my shirt. I want it to be known to all, it is official I am in love!

I Had A Dream Last Night

So last night I was on a sailboat. I am not familiar with sailboats and I am feeling uncomfortable. The wind starts to pick up and I am moving through the water really fast. I look around and see that all four of my kids are on the boat with me. I start to panic and call to them to stay close to me. I look up to realize the water is extremely shallow in certain areas and there are coral reefs everywhere. I see nothing but water no land and I have no sense of direction. I need help and realize no one can help me. The wind is getting stronger. We are moving fast. The faster we move the lower we move into the water. My kids are all under the water and I am trying to maneuver around the coral reefs and hold all four of my kids above the water so they can breath. They keep slipping out of my hold and its beginning to get dark. This was my dream last night

also my life. This is how I feel about having a fourth child. Welcome to the world Louis!
