When Ish Happens....

Can you say Stressed!!!

You know what's funny, I take life way too serious at times. Things always have to go a certain way, every things always got to be perfect. I end up overwhelming myself and become stressed. I wish I could be more relaxed and let my hair down, oh I have no problem doing that literally, but emotionally I'm just not there...yet!

I'm a perfectionist at fault. When things don't go my way...well let's just say I end up apologizing. Worse yet, taking on the Samurai worriors Spirit, and I know just where to put the sword.

What can I say I'm a work in progress. Not perfect (yet)!

But you know what? My children will never see anything other than perfection, because to them I AM MOMMY and that means the world to them. I am here, steady, and available for every scrape on their knees, every new word they want to read, every good and bad dream, EVERYTHING!

And to D. you can find out here what I mean to him. In my own words though - I'm here to stay until our last day.

    It's ok for the kids to see you N
    OT perfect ... and then see how you handle that with grace/ That's a good lesson.

    No one is perfect. It's ok if you are JUST Lisa! And JUST Mom. :)

    Sindy, it is good to know that our kids don't need perfection, they just need YOU!

My Monday Morning Started At 11:00PM...Last Night!

We had to take little j. to the Doctor this morning because last night he didn't sleep good and neither did we. He kept crying and crying and wouldn't stop. We were completely thrown because he had such a good day. Could it be: 1. He's teething and it's bothering him? Yes, but a little baby Orajel and infants Tylenol should have done the trick. It didn't. 2. I ate something that didn't agree with him? Of course we couldn't come up with anything. 3. He was just so tired from everything we did yesterday and it was hard for him to fall asleep? Maybe. 4. He got bit by a bug and we didn't know? We checked all over, no bites. We even checked to see if there was a piece of hair wrapped around his little fingers and toes. None! 5. Because he's teething he could have an ear infection? Yes very possible but he didn't show the usual signs: fever, pulling at his ears (that looked like it was out of the norm for him because it's something he does often...

The other day a friend of mine asked me, where have you been? She then proceeded to say, it's like you fell off the face of the earth. I laughed and said, "no, I've actually fallen onto the face of the earth". Girl, thanks for that little laugh, I appreciated the moment :) I've fallen onto the face of the earth and bumped right into my family, friends (old and new), business partners, business meetings, social gatherings, moms meetings, and so many activities for the kids, life has been busy. My natural journey has opened so many doors, talk about beautiful women. Sistah's who have inspired me to keep going and stay focused on the end result rather than the transitioning stage. These days I mostly wear my hair in a ponytail-bun. I don't have time to get all fancy, but when I can I'll do a two-strand twist style and use my latest product discovery, Oyin Handmade . They are very reasonable and the products smell so good. If it's one thing I...
