dear pratt.

dear pratt,

I just heard whoopi goldberg say of her mother's death, "I think I'm just sad sometimes because I think, who will love me the way she did?"

It reminded me of my feelings about you.

There are some days I think maybe we will just stay in this house for the rest of our lives to keep anything bad from happening. I know that's not reasonable...but it seems normal to feel that way.

I love you more than you will ever know. I love you more than you love Popsicles and cheetos.

Xoxo, mommy.

How could we ever explain the love of a mother for her child? My Nana is facing an operation that she most likely will not make it out of in two weeks. I CANNOT imagine knowing I might only have two more weeks with my boys.

My biggest fear is dying and not having shown my kids how much I love them.

you know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. - dr. seuss

About Me

My photo
i'm a girl who likes to write. not a girl that's necessarily good at writing. it's cathartic, i think. and boy do i need that from time to time. i married a wonderful man named clint in may of 2007. he is everything i am not. he is calm. he makes plans. he is organized. his truck is always clean. his clothes are hung by types of shirt/color/size/etc. i'm full of nervous energy. i'm spur of the moment. i can't ever find what i'm looking for. we live in my car...pretty much. i'm lucky if my clothes are within ten feet of my closet. God gave us a precious angel of a baby in september of 2008. his name is pratt allen. he is 2.5 years old.we have another little one on the way. his name is max wesley. and he is due may 19th. somehow i'll be the mother of two boys. craaaaa.zy. i spend my days cleaning house. picking worms and caterpillars out of the flower beds. cooking meals. shopping at target. washing clothes. playing on the floor. reading books. doing puzzles. traveling to sonic. and the library. and blogging. i hope you enjoy our blog. feel free to leave a comment. hopefully it's a nice one. i tend to wear my heart on my sleeve.
