this happened just about the time we got to the restaurant for the reception...it was only about 2 miles away at the local ball fields!!![]()
should have added a picture of the tornado!!
So I'm not a blogger
and it has been a while since I updated anything...
Just got married June 28, 2008...it was a lovely small ceremony in the local park, family friends....a small tornado...but hey! that's my life!!
A=Gathering We will Go
The menu is planned, the shopping list is prepared, checklist is ready so nothing is left behind....now all I have to do is .... WAIT!! *groan, grumble, mutter* One more month. Just one more month. It seems like forever and a day ago we earnestly began talking about another Gathering, and now the time is upon us!!
I can't wait to see my "family" again!!
Be safe!!
Greetings New Friends
Before I Was a Mom
From Rob's mom to him, right before mother's day...but so true for all of us who are moms!
Before I was a Mom
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom - I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to
put them down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I
couldn't stop the hurt..
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so
much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom -
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so
important and happy.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every
10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache,
the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a
Mom.
