HAPPY ANNIVERSARY 6/7/08

It was 11 years ago today when I made the best decision of my life. JJ and I are celebrating our 11 year wedding annivarsary today. (Or after I get home from work) 11 years, who would of thought?

Alot of people thought that he and I would never make it, boy did we prove them wrong. Remember when you first start dating someone that you totaly are into? Remember that feeling you got in the pit of your stomach? The butterflies that seemed to fly around inside of you every time you knew that special someone was coming to see you? Remember how fast your heart would beat at the thought of his touch, or the excitment you felt knowing that he could be the one? All of these feelings are something that I still feel with JJ. I still feel the butterflies when I know it's almost time for him to come home, and the rapid beats of my heart when he reaches out to touch me. And most of all I still feel the excitment at the thought of spending the rest of my life with him.
The past 11 years have not been without difficulty, we've had our issues and our up's and down's. Some big, some small and some huge. But the end result was always to be together, to love and support one another. JJ is like breathing, without him I could not be, he is my life, my heart, and my world. I love him as much today as I did 11 years ago and I will love him as much 11 years from now as I do today!!

QUAIDE'S 14TH BIRTHDAY

For the past 6 months Quaide has been telling his father and I that he wants to go to Hooters for his birthday, (What 13 year old boy dosnt?) Well this past Saturday Quaide turned 14 so we went ahead and took him. It is a family restaurant, they have good food and we thought it would be fun for Quaide. Let me just say it was fun for all of us. The "Hooter girls" sang to Quaide but there was a catch, he had to stand up with them while they sang and shake his booty, if he stopped they would start all over again. OMG it was soooo funny, Quaide was so embarrassed. I think it is one of the Birthday's that Quaide will remember forever. 14, my baby is growing up so fast.

Jordan's Graduation

This past Friday was a major life changing event for my son Jordan, im sure he dosnt know it yet but it was the start of a new chapter in his life. He graduated from high school. JJ and I were so proud...there was a point in Jordan's life a few years back that we thought would push him downward instead of towards his future, he proved us wrong (thank god) and we watched him walk across the stage Friday and recieve his diploma. It was a great moment. I looked at JJ as we sat there watching evryone cross the stage and I told him, "You know, I can still remember Jordan's first day of kindergarten. I remember him getting on that big yellow bus and how tiny he looked." I've come to the realization that Jordan will never be a rocket scientist, he will never cure some crazy disease, and most likely he wont be president of the United States. But im proud of him know matter what he does. Whatever Jordan decides to be in life, I know he will be great at it because failing is not an option in his world. WE LOVE YOU JORDAN!!!!
