Good Morning Blog World!

We have had Football games, T-Ball practice and games, Soccer practice and school!! Today there is nothing! Silly me just sent out an email for a play date! I just hate the idea of being cooped up in the house all day, no matter how big my list of To Do's are! I really need to do laundry and mop. Last night I was going to do that, but I looked for a recipe to make for dinner! I am sure you all know this but Blogging is addicting! I started at Kelly's Corner and went tons of other places. By the time I even found a recipe I needed to go to the store. Well, when I got home from the store Landon and Jeff  had already ate! I was going to make something yummy! So instead I made a salad and fresh sourdough bread that was also yummy!! Now I need to go check my email and get the kiddos ready! Blog my heart away later ~ Amanda

Where has the time gone?

So I am finally going to jump on the band wagon and blog my life away! =P This one is "Where has the time gone" I remember being a little girl playing outside, believing in Santa, going to school, playing sports, my first boyfriend, first kiss. Now I look back at those memories and it is amazing and scary at the same time. I am the mom whose children are playing outside, I am the sister whose baby brothers are going to High School, have girlfriends, had their first kiss. I am Santa, I am their biggest fan at all their games. I am everything I loved and hated about my parents as so much more. In a blink of an eye we grow up have babies and have our own lives! Do you ever question yourself and what you have become in that short time? What am I doing with my life? I do! I have the biggest dreams and goals! Why cant they just be achieved in a blink of an eye! When your young you hear you can be anything you wanna be! Well I wanna be everything! I wanna be a nurse, a teacher, a Dr., a mom(check), a successful business women. I know I need a degree but what do I choose, what can I picture myself being for the rest of my life if it is just one or two of those? I need the ambition I had when I was little I need ultimate faith that I can be whatever I wanna be! Because right now I am a mom, I keep 4 kiddos during the week, I am not the best at deep cleaning my house everyday, or always having a homemade dinner made, sometimes I am not even the best at being me! I love spending time with my family, baking cakes, sewing and being crafty! But sometimes at the end of the day I still feel incomplete! I look back at those memories and think wow I had it so easy! I had so much spirit, and that positive attitude that I had life by the hands and I could be anything!! Where did it go? Where has the time gone? Truly yours~ Mama Manda
