Look at that face. If I could tell that little girl anything I would tell her to always believe in herself. I would tell her that things will get tough, but she'll be OK. I would tell her that she's beautiful (inside and out). She's creative and fun. I would tell her to follow her dreams, and that she can be anything she wants to be.

This is my favorite picture of me from my childhood. I don't have many pictures, but the ones I do have-I cherish. I just love looking back. I think about if I knew then what I know now, what would I do differently? There are a bunch of things I would do differently, but there are more that I wouldn't change for anything. My past is my past and many of the things that happened and that I did led to who and where I am today. Is my life perfect? Not by any means, but am I happy. I sure am.

Later!

Julia's first haircut

Julia had her first haircut on Saturday (her second birthday) and she was so funny. She looked like a deer caught in the headlights for most of the time. We even gave her a lollypo, but she just held it in her hand. She was toocute. Joanne and Jessica joined me for the monumental event. I of course needed to take as many pictures as possible (considering she probably won't be getting a haircut for another 2 years! :) Hey, this is my first and final baby girl and after three boys I just want to let her have long hair until she says she wants to cut it (or until one of her preschool friends gives her one). Hey, these things happen. I know! I'm not saying I'll be happy about it, I'm just saying that I know that anything is possible when you put a bunch of scissor happy 4 year olds at a craft table.

We also celebrated Julia's first birthday on Saturday. It was a cute "luau" theme. Don't ask me why I had a luau in February... I really just thought the invitation was cute! ;)

Back soon~

The kitties I want

I have been in contact with a breeder, and these are the kitties that could be mine. My hubby doesn't want any pets, but I do and the kids do. I'm really sad, but he won't even DISCUSS it with me ~sigh~ I'm really upset with him right now. Not only did I have to cancel a CROP I had planned and paid for, for tonight (because the house wasn't clean and my daughter's 2nd birthday party is tomorrow), but HE is leaving to go play HOCKEY with his friends. WTF? Excuse my French I guess I am just really sour right now. Not my finest blog moment. Sorry. Not like anyone reads this or anything. My own friends don't. What a loser I am. Why do I bother?
