CAUTION Im feeling very passionate about this so it may be offensive

This is what is being plastered all over facebook today
 small boy writes a letter to God. "Dear God, why do you let bad things happen in our schools?"
God replied, "Dear Son, I am not allowed in your schools."
I challenge you to re-post this.

so people are discussing how god is not in the schools any more and then saying oh that is why our children have no morals and no respect well here is my thought I went to a catholic school and didnt learn much about religion just about how mean kids can be and then I went to public school and the kids were just as mean there. The reason your kids have no morals and no respect is due to the fact that YOU the parent are depending on the school to do that for you, well in case you were wondering that's  YOUR job not the schools and if you want to raise your child with religion well guess what? that again is on YOU not the school but I also believe that God is carried in your heart not in some pledge or prayer you say at school. Now If you dont agree with public school well guess what you have options,  send your child to a "religious" school of your choice but you still must not expect the school to teach them the ways of said religion that again is on you the parent.
You have to RAISE your kids! that is the problem not the schools,  it is not the schools fault your child is disrespectful it is yours it is not the schools fault your child has no morals that is your fault,  maybe you should stop being on face book and watching the real housewives of where ever and spend time with your kids taking them to church is a great start but dont blame the schools for your lack of parenting, the schools have enough problems like not paying their teachers what they deserve and making sure there is enough funding to get books and supplies and having children that WANT to learn and are not being shuffled thru the system and pushing them to the next grade cause they would not dare hold them back like they should. God is in control of every thing anyway you just have to have faith in him and his ways. but YOU have to be the parent,  love your children raise them up with faith and love as well as discipline and affirmation speak words of life  over your little people and stop looking for someone else to blame.

what about this whole marriage thing anyway?

Ive been married three years and my hubby is a good provider and great dad and I think he is really hot!
 Ive been reading about all the infidelity that goes on and the fact the  new 20 somethings that are coming up thinking  that marriage is becoming obsolete.
In fact the pew research center found that 40% of these 20 somethings  thinking marriage is becoming obsolete say that they think being a good parent is way more important then  having a good marriage.
  There is so much of the living together having babies together that they don't see the point because every one is so independent  and they don't want to depend on any one. Ive been there I get it,  in fact Ive done it !  But I also believe that parenting should be done as a couple and we have gotten away from this in the last generation,  they believe that Divorce is the cure for melancholy. My generation the 30 somethings are perhaps in between the old romantic ideals and the new post romantic expectation. most of our parents are divorced because after all the hippy love and happiness wore off and the smoke cleared  and they hit their  40's and  they realized  they were in a marriage with some kids in middle income America and freaked out.
 I think my  generation has discovered anti depressants and rely on pills for their happiness,   every one is bi-polar and depressed and bla bla bla. They  think  they remember when life was  all rainbows and jelly beans and it never  really was in the first place,  you just plant false memories in your mind and sugar coat them with fluffy pink unicorns,  well  put on your big girl pants and make your marriage what is it supposed to be a partnership!   You cannot rely on you spouse to make you happy.

However you should be generally happy in your marriage, I mean there will be times when the way he drools in his sleep just repulses you or the smell of his feet makes you want to throw up in your mouth , but all in all you must have liked that person in the beginning at least enough to marry and have babies with them right?
Your maybe just bored and semi happy well boredom is basically an attach on a relationships immunity system,   however  it is not a reason to be unfaithful . Even so people can still end up feeling only semi unhappy there is still a part of your soul that isn't being nourished  in the marriage and the men feel trapped and the woman feels lonely . Maybe your expectations of marriage are too high ? It is not about a prince coming in and saving you from all your woes it is about a union of you and your spouse living your life together the good the bad and the ugly. and for those who think that being a good parent is better than  being a good spouse well that is all great until your kids are grown and gone then what? Your old and incontinent and so is your spouse.  You all better have something to talk about and a spark of love left in there cause its just you and wrinkle's over there looking for his teeth!

really??

It has been raining for like 30 days and 30 nights I think Im gonna trade the mini van in for an ark!  the lingering trial of Caylee Anthony Ive had to stop watching it and I cant stop thinking about it. Anything that has to do with the abuse of a child in any way makes me want to vomit. I want more than anything to mother my children, so I just dont understand. There is so much going on right now. the Church is preaching about the end of times but I think that every generation believes they are on the brink of the Apocalypse.  I try to live each day as it comes I mean Ive never struggled with any type of addiction nor had someone really close to me die that left me in an ever lasting sorrow Ive never been homeless or jobless or hungry so I dont know real sorrow so please forgive me for saying Im living day by day but I am. maybe its the weather maybe its PMS but Im just in a funk  lately and I want to stay home with my kids it would make life for me so much easier, now yea its selfish to want my husband to carry the whole financial burden all on his own but Im feeling the need to mother the kids Hope needs me more than ever she is 16 and spends a lot of time at home alone until we get home from work. The little kids are gonna wanna start getting into extra curricular activities that my current job will not allow me to take them to and from or attend the activities.  There are so many things Id rather be doing and I know I could do stuff to make a little money and still be with my family. I dont know just a thought. It is time for a new chapter in my life and Im going to make it a good one. Im the author Im the illustrator and nothing is holding me back except me.

Im meeeelllting!!!!

I feel stifled bored and Im loosing myself. Im starving to be creative !  We bought this fabulous new home that is a little on the fancy side when Im ALOT on the artsy side so Im going to paint a mural in Morgans room,   birds and bird cages.  A  mural in the living room maybe but it is just not enough !

Im so bored at work and it exhausts the color right outta me, I spend the whole day being "nice" to people I dont know and then by the time I get home my nice-ness reservoir is empty and Im cranky ! There has to be a better way !
I want to spend every minute with my kids while they still like me. I want to  paint and craft and make my own wine and enjoy the company of  my other birds, you know birds of a feather flock together. I would love to have some place to hang my art and photography and enjoy my kids and maybe a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. I need a way to make money doing the things I love !  Tom and I are financially doing very well but my job supplies the benefits the medical and that sort of thing,  so I will need to make sure that we are not left without insurance. I know there are stay at home moms but I want more than that!  I dont want to wear sweat pants and have ugly hair,  I just want to do what I love and make money doing it instead of looking back in 20 years saying what happened?  where did my life go? and blame corporate America for stifling  me and sucking the color out of my life !   Im going to get with some other "rock star moms" and do some brain storming wish me luck and send ideas my way.  maybe Ill look into opening Rock Star moms Cafe !  art, photography,  crafts, play area, coffee, wine, wifi and great company !   ahhh what a dream !

what a morning

Had to be to work at 8:30 so I hit the snooze button a few times went downstairs and made a breackfast sanwich to go and some coffee. I got dressed and got ready to go. Then I went into Morgans room and she asked where we were going?, Granma and Granpas house, she got deeper under the covers and said I wanna wear my jammies then I had a deja-vuew when the same thing happend in Tommys room. I picked out the kids clothes got them in their bag got them downstairs and Tommy knocked over my to go cup of coffee so I ran backupstairs to get a towel to clean that up, then got Morgan in her car seat and put tommy in his card seat but my husband had put the straps on it wrong after we washed it so they came  un-done (yea I know safe right?)  any way so I told the kids to please trade seats and while I was buckling in Morgan she starts pulling on the strap the opposite direction  Im pulling and I slip in my heels on the wet concrete and practically bash my face on the carpet floor of the van yea rug burn is a good look for me. I then went and buckled Tommy in the same way with the car seat belt instead of the bult in harness and I asked him to just leave it alone. So we get outta town and CRAP I forgot to get the gas card and the light is on and has been on since yesterday. So I flip a u-e and go back home and before the kids start to ask I tell them we have to go home and get the gas card and Morgan starts saying " well isnt that just greeeat" so I get the gas card and were off again and within about ten minutes I hear a click and a grunt and I look back and the boy is no longer buckled in!!!  So I pull off to the side of the road and buckle him in and tell the kids to please give me a break today Its not even 8:00AM  and Im spent. so I get gas get the kids to the granparents and then I actually have to go to work!!! OMG really? after the morning I had I should get to go to the spa or something !

Vaca two

Two adults a teenage  girl,  two toddlers in a mini van and 2029 Miles no problem for Rock star mom! cause I made  the Hubster do  most of the driving. And thank goodness for that cause Im so blind at night Im dangerous!  So we left Friday the 25th at about 8 pm for Tempe AZ to stay with my sister and see my family and friends. We drove the van with all three kids. The The kids were good as can be they had movies and toys and when we drive at night they pretty much sleep.  So my son had a little diareah and kept sharding in his underwear's so I finally put a pullup on him and told  him to try not to fart. Then in the middle of no where at 3:46 in the morning,  I see this flash of light that about blinded me and I knew what it was, Freakin states that have money and they have those photo radar.  I was like CRAP and that is gonna be just a freakin fabulous picture !! Flint cannot even afford cops let alone photo radar. Sometimes living in a poor city is a good thing. stupid freakin photo radar. So I told Tom what happened and that it would find me and be waiting at the house when we get home. So Any way we got to my sisters early on Sunday morning and we all went back to bed my sister had a most beautiful guest room decorated for us. then sunday we just hid out cause no one was expecting us till Monday. SO on Monday we went to the phoenix Zoo with my sister and her fam she has three kids too. Tuesday we left the kids with my mom and went to the rim of the mountains. Tom loved it he is kinda a granola nature guy. I dont like out side I dont like weather, bugs, dirt, plants, pickers, snakes or anything else that lives in the wilderness. Then dinner with my BFF V she brought her kids. Now keep in mind Ive been gone six years so her beautiful daughter Alicia remembered me But Sy was a toddler when I left so I said I know you dont remember me but I'm gonna kiss you anyway.. he wiped it off hahahah. Wednesday had a heart to heart with the Creator of me the mom and then we went down to Mill in Tempe and hung out. Thursday was the Big stupid hole in the earth Oh I mean the grand Canyon. Now please reference again the above statement about how I love the out doors. I could have stopped for a moment looked  and said oh that is beautiful but the outdoorsy husband made a day of it and we took a million pictures he pulled me a couple times to the edge for some pictures and  I was freaked out and couple choice words I'm not proud of spewed from my lips as he slapped my butt as I was walking in from the death leap ledge ! and that is why I look terrified in the pictures. The kids were exhausted but I did get some nice pictures of them  the land scape along the pat is really beautiful Friday was dinner with my AZ besties it was so great to see every one. Holly and Andy have two great kids ! Tony is a goof as always, V well I have such deep love for,  and she walks up looking all HOT and skinny wearing the most awesome jeans I have ever seen and I said" ahh I want your jeans" and she loves me so much she said ok you can have them !!!!Jim was just the same as always and I love everything about him. Even Daren came out ! His new bike is BA! Saterday was the BBQ at V's house that was awesome my girl Teasha came with her brand new baby Zoe, she is one of the most beautiful babies I have EVER seen at only ten days old. Sunday we hit a really great local church then our customary Sunday nap then dinner out with the  fam. Monday we met lovely Louisa at a park in phoenix and I got to hold her new baby ooh what a chubby beautiful little girl. I found it hard to leave Louisa that day I miss you so very much. Then we went to china town in Phoenix for some great photo ops.Tuesday was back in the Van and head to Vegas baby!! We stopped and took a tour of the Hoover dam and then we got to vegas kinda late so we layed the babies down and Tom and I went out on the town!  Wednesday Tom had his convention and the kids and I stayed in the hotel and they played in the carnival and rode the rides and played carnival games. Then when Tom was done we went to dinner and took the kids to see some of the hotels and watched the Treasure Island pirate performance. Then thursday I let Hope lead the day since it was her sweet 16. then later we met up with Tom and did a few more things and headed to the van to get  back in the van for the long haul home. We stopped in Iowa to see Faith and Cassie Joe and then we got back to our beautiful home at 11:00 on sat morning  and I crashed in the big pappa chair for hours!   But I did like that spring came back to Michigan with us. and that is the fam
