Just a few random thoughts on my mind...
I have come to realize...with Madeline's monthly birthdays, I overlooked the fact that I am actually counting down to my 30th birthday. July 19th will be my half birthday. I do not want to be in my 30's, I'd prefer to stay in my 20's. Is that so much to ask?
I have come to realize...you can have all the material things in the world, huge house, new cars, brand name wardrobe, jewelry, never worrying about a spending limit, but it's not what you have that makes you happy...it's who you have to share it with. Whether it be every thing you want or just the things you need, a mansion or an apartment, a Lexus or an Oldsmobile, material things don't mean a thing. It's love that makes you happy :)
I have come to realize...it really feels great to help people. BUT, you cannot help people that are not open to being helped. It just doesn't work that way.
I have come to realize...some people are just jerks and taking the time to wonder why people are the way they are is just taking away from time that could be spent thinking about some one that is not a jerk. That being said, I will no longer worry about why our neighbor gives me the evil eye every time I see him. [See 3rd Time is a Charm post].
I have come to realize...the worst feeling in the world is when you accidentally hurt your own baby. You go through life protecting them from every thing, then they move their finger when you're clipping their finger nails. Thank god there was no blood or I think I would have to be committed right now. She wailed. My heart broke. Horrible. So, the next time you see my baby and she has long dagger claws it's because I refuse to clip them anymore.
The first and last one made me sad....but mainly the last one.
Part 1 - Boy do I know how you feel. I'll be 30 in 2 months. Blah.
ReplyDeletePart 3 - **nodding in agreement**
Part 5 - That is why I file nails. It takes FOREVER but that way I don't have to stress about hurting her.

Chrissy ~ Reading this brought back a horrible memory to me of the same exact incident !!!!! I was clipping Heather's nails when she was maybe only 2 weeks old & guess what there was BLOOD !!! I was hysterical to say the least & my (not so wonderful husband at the time) I would really like to call him something else :)))))) Came in & said Geez what in the hell did you do to our daughter ???? As if I was not heartbroken, hysterical & guilty enough !!!! I mean REALLY ??? Did you have to say that to me? Try a nail file or just bite them yourself ... I think that was my new way after that mishap !!
ReplyDeletePs, "30" ... not so bad ~ that actually was some of my BEST YEARS EVER ... it's the 40's you gotta start worrying about !! :)
Number 1- I am actually kind of excited to be 30...I still have like 10 months so I might change my mind, but I am over being in my 20's...I did however think we would be done having kids by 30, guess not!
ReplyDeleteNumber 5- That is why I make Mike cut Gavin's nails!! I cut his thumb too short when he was like 6 weeks old and it bled, we both cried and I refused to cut them after that, Mike's had to do it! ha
