Broncos Superbowl bound!



 We're talking SUPERBOWL this post!
Anybody else excited? 
I know someone who is super excited.
My Husband, Matthew! 
He has been a Denver fan for a very long time now!

Some of our many good memories involve watching the games. 
I have become a huge fan.. just because of his excitement for watching them play. 
I attempted to "pick my own team". 
Yeah... that failed because I found myself still cheering for the Broncos. 
They have made it to the play-offs a few times since we've been together but never got past that. 
So, imagine just how happy he was when they beat the Patriots and got their ticket to the Superbowl.
My happiness was seeing them win and seeing Matt so happy! 
Can't wait to see what happens Superbowl! 
Here's hoping they win! So if you don't have a team in the 
Superbowl this year.. you already know who to root for!

Supermom? uh not quite...

Struggling with feeling like a failure at night as you lay in bed?
I do!

I pour out to my husband constantly, "I need more patience"
Some days I am happy of the progress I made.
Other days I'm very sad that I regressed into a monster that yells way too much.

I struggle with thoughts of discipline.
I want to discipline but wonder what is worth the fight and what I can let fly.
I don't want to constantly be disciplining but I also know that consistency is key.

I think everyone will fail at being a parent at some point.
But this I know. I will always let my children know they are loved!
I will always hug, always kiss. and cuddle.
Always feed and bathe them.. and read them bedtime stories.
I will apologize when I act like a cranky pants but try my best not to get cranky with them.
I will always pour out to my husband because it keeps me accountable.
I will always try not to yell and I will always be sad when I do yell. Oh goodness I hate yelling.
I will never stop trying to be a better mom...




But Do they feel safe with me? Yes
Do they know I love them and do I show it with my actions? No doubt about it, YES!
Then, I've done the most important jobs.
I know there's more to it then that, but personally I've had two of my children in the hospital, those things are the jobs that matter most.
