Home Depot Mommy

I saw this on Jessicas website, it is so funny I had to steal to share with everyone, this something Stratton would do!

This was printed in a Baltimore newspaper and drawn/handwritten by an elementary student and her embarrased mother...





Dear Teacher,
I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer. I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it. Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot. From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
Sincerely,
Mother
Aren't kids the best!

25 Things

Kourtney tagged me so here is 25 random facts about me!

1.I love the color green, Subconsciously I buy clothing,decorations, etc... I just love the color.

2. I am super shy, and sometimes sensitive I can always tell what other people are feeling. No psychic, just sensitive!

3.I love to be natural or organic when I can I am a bit of a hippie, but on the other hand i have serious cravings for sugar!!

4.I love to scrapbook, I am into the shabby-chic scrapbooking it is so fun it takes me hours just to do one page.

5. I love to cook, I have developed a passion for it just since I have been married, I love learning to ways of cooking and cultures for cooking.

6. I walk Stratton to kindergarten everyday, not because he wants me to or needs me but mostly because I need to be with him every moment I can, I think he thinks its weird but he lets me anyways.

7.I work at Safeway as Liqour manager and I have never drank alcohol in my life!

8. I have moved over 35 times in my life, most of all was before I was married. I guess you could say my dad liked the change in culture.

9. I am so happy that I married Joe I wouldn't change it for anything. High School romance was so funny how you think you are so in love with your bf and they are the ones you always wanted to marry. Then when you find the right one you don't even think that you just know its going to happen.

10. Joe and I still argue over who said "I love YOu" first. Although I am positive it was him.

11. I miss my little sister,we also use to fight a ton when we were younger. She lived in Eagar for 8 months and we finally became close, and now I miss her so much. It is so fun having someone to go to lunch with, shop, Show Low, or just hang out with during the day.

12. I am always questioning myself as to whether I am being a good enough mom.I think we all feel that way at times


13.I am still in college majoring in child psychology, I just love kids and feel I have a lot to offer with my life experiences and my childhood.

14.Joe and I don't go on much date nights because we love to bring the whole family, well Stratton anyways.

15. Joe is the first guy I let kiss me right when I met him. All the others had to wait a while, One waited 11 months.

16. Our little family loves to go to the theater and watch movies, eat popcorn, and be together. Thats what we do on some weekends as a treat.

17. I am a huge Elvis Fan!

18. I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers.Stephanie, Stacee, Frank, Jacob, and Victoria.

19. Joe washes the car every week inside and out, it drives me nuts and I will not go with him and help him. I know I am a brat!

20. I hate waking up early, Stratton was such an easy baby he always slept in so I never had to wake up early.

21. I really want to go to Disneyland!

22. I need to go to the dentist.

23. I really need to stock up on food storage.

24. I am a Beehive Advisor in our ward and I absolutly love being in young womens, reminds me of all the fun I use to have.

25. I have to go to work at 7 am tomorrow morning and if you were paying attention, I really hate waking up early as a matter of fact I even hate going to bed early!HAHA.

I tag anyone and everyone!

Sad news:( sorry

I guess I just got way too excited and spoke to soon, but today I had a miscarriage. Although I am sad, I am grateful to know that we can at least get pregnant again. And I would want a baby to be born the healthiest way possible. Thank for all the support, and I promise I am doing fine.

Baby News to a 5 year old............

THis was my conversation with Stratton when I told him that mommy is going to have a baby. I just love this kid, he really thinks about things.

Mom: Stratton, do you know that mom has a baby growing in her belly?

Stratton: Is it going to be here today?

Mom: No, it takes about nine months.

Stratton: Well, how did it get there?

MOm: Well.....

Stratton:Did dad put a seed in you?

Mom: Kind of....

Stratton: Well, did he just call you on your cell phone this morning and tell that it was in there?

I just wonder how kids think, they say the most innocent things, and it is so hard not to laugh because he is always dead serious when he says things like this.

Together Forever........:)and a baby???

Well last weekend Joe, Stratton, and I all went down to the Mesa Temple to be sealed together forever. It was such an amazing experience(1st time I've seen Joe cry), it was a very special day. At first I was worried about the our sealer because he was so hard to understand when he talked because he is hispanic and told us that he doesn't usually have to speak much English until he moved to the United States, but he was totally inspired and he definately was meant to be our sealer. He gave us many blessing, but mostly talked about having more kids. I kept thinking does this man know we have been trying for 2 1/2 years to have another baby. So I started to worry because he really talked a lot about that, and then he says that the rest of our children have been waiting til our family could be sealed forever to come down to us, and then I thought, "I really hope he is right".

And so Sunday, one day later I found out that Joe and I are pregnant!!!!!! YAY!!!!! I am so grateful that our family can now be together forever, it brings so much peace to my mind and heart. It has been a long journey to get this place and a hard one at that but I know Heavenly Father just needed me to possibly learn patience, which was my biggest weakness. We ask him to help us be perfect, so he gives us the test and trials to help us become perfect in the things we need to change. I am grateful that we finally made it together and can now move forward in our lives.

THONGS:)

YOu know you have all worn one, and yes even me, but honestly you all know they are NOT comfortable. This video is too funny, and all I have to say is AMEN!!!
