Better Mother, Acceptable Wife

I wish these things for myself.

Seriously.

I just happened upon this blog and she said exactly what I've been thinking lately...but she said it better and with better pictures.

I want a blog with bright, cheery, quirky pics of my kids...and brutal honestly that comes out in my writing. I want insight, depth and the right words to fall in my lap.

I swear if it kills me I will write a better blog.

And my poor husband. I feel like some days I suck at both but if one part gets shorted...it's definitely the wife part. I'm even a better friend lately than I am wife. It seems like so often my love gets pushed to last place and I need to do better. I will do better!

And I will improve my blog too. Less drama, more meat. I have a unique voice and I will use it to express myself in a way that I'm proud. I WILL.

iPad

I'm typing on my new iPad. I can't tell I how lucky I feel to b me most of the time. It's like I'm living in a fairy tale. My kids are perfect, my house, my car, my hubby is awesome. My friends r the bestest, my family is so supportive and I feel so secure in their love for me. Well, I guess I could be thinner, quieter, nicer....a lot of things. Maybe it's not that everything is perfect but that I choose to see it that way. Perception is the key. To quote India Aire "Back when I had a little
I thought that I needed a lot
A little was over rated,
but a lot was a little too complicated
You see-Zero didn't satisfy me
A million didn't make me happy
That's when I learned a lesson
That it's all about your perception
Hey-are you a pauper or a superstar
So you act, so you feel, so you are
It ain't about the size of your car
It's about the size of the faith in your heart"

That's one of my favorite songs cuz I love the message. It's all in the 'tude. ;)

Disclaimer AGAIN!

For those of you that have recently had a PROBLEM with my blog I would like to point out that my blog does come with a disclaimer.

My recent blog about my husband made me remember that I had this disclaimer because just because I felt that way one minute doesn't mean I feel that way now. As a woman I'm full of emotion. One minute I'm riding the high and the next I'm kissing the ground. I try to spend most my time riding the high because that's so much better but I'm not PERFECT. No matter how often I blog about how I am. ;) Saying it just hasn't made it come true, dammit.
