Getting Ready to be a Grandma
My oldest is 23, lives two hours away and is about to become a Mother.
We have had the baby shower. They have everything they need. So where is my excitement?
I just am overwhelmed with the idea of not being there for my daughter.
I know she must be feeling worried and having some anxiety as the weeks grow closer. The phone calls are just making me feel guilty for not being able to hug my little Star Shine and give her a sense of security. She needs the comfort in knowing that she will be a wonderful mother and the delivery will be fine.
When is it okay to go visit? I want to go spend the day with her,but I have two other kids at home. I am going to upset my youngest for going during the week while she is in school. My middle son will have to help out with the youngest and he will understand, I just hope he doesn't hide her in a closet.
I was listening to a neighbor talk about missing her mom while she was pregnant and out of state. It hit me that I have to go Two Hours, I can do this.
By being out of the daily routine and not seeing my oldest daughter has taken a toll on me. I have come to realize that I do feel depressed that I am not there to hug my Star Shine and be her Mommy now when she really needs me to be there. My Star Shine will be out of work this week and I am getting excited now to go be with her soon.
Chatelaine Magazine has a 30-day challenge to better yourself. I chose to tell my family I Love them. I really want to be sure that all of my family knows that I Love them and want nothing but the best for them. This has really helped me to set a goal to help all of my family and myself.
I am going to be a Grandma soon! I want to show our little precious ball of joy all the Love and comfort of our family. Our family tree is starting to flourish and we will have to make some changes. So for now I will be taking a drive to see my Star Shine and give her support, Love and Hugs. Soon she will be a mother soon.
It really is important to travel to see family. GIVE YOUR FAMILY A HUG and say "I LOVE YOU" today.

This is such an amazing bakery and they are all the nicest people.

Peter was so helpful and my guests so loved the cake.
Our all time favorite is their "Morning/All day buns" what a special treat.

They also have a cute and comfortable front patio to enjoy your
coffee and that morning bun.
So excited for them ,I heard they will be opening a second

Taking the time to understand my teen
Oh yeah! she is only 11 years old.
I guess it should be... Getting ready for the teen years.
She says I don't understand her at all.
I say your childhood should be fun.
Making good memories for you girls may be a challenge.
A challenge worth taking head on.
Yesterday was the last straw. The demanding! the Arguing,
The screaming, upsetting everyone. It has to stop.
Today the whole week is on hold.
I wrote a letter to my daughter and she is just fuming.
It has Lists for her to fill out and schedules to make.
I told her after she fills them out we can go over them together and
maybe I can start understanding where she is coming from. Then we
can make plans for a happy peaceful future.
If you have any positive ideas , let me in on your secrets.
I will keep you posted on our progress.
ohmmmm... peaceful positive things to come

June is about as busy as December
How do you fit it all in. Time management is just one of many things I can't get right.
Here it is the end of the school year. My 5th grader just did her science fair project over the memorial day weekend. My 12th grade son is graduating and I spent the whole day getting out announcements yesterday. Today I got an email on a great Arbonne Surprise bag for only $29, I have to get the word out to all my friends. Laundry is piling up and I need to follow my "Flylady.net" routine. Oh did I mention we painted the upstairs bathroom Sunday? I still need to clean that up too. What is today?? WEDNESDAY!!!YIKES.... minimum day at school, the kids get out at 12:30.
How do you successfully manage your week?
Would you like more Arbonne information on the $29 Surprise bag, valued at $300?
SeaSource Detox Bath Soak ...ahhh....take me away... I need to relax really soon ;)
Have a beautiful day.
