Wordless Wednesday...one day late ;)

Put A Smile on My Face :)

Whether you know me in person or online (yup, I have loads of fabulous online friends that I "met" while pregnant with Megan!), I want you to write a comment with a favorite memory of me or something that describes me. As in, I'm a wonderful, thoughtful friend. ;)

You get the point. Make me smile! (extra points if I laugh...)

Sitting in the rain.

I was sitting in the rain earlier tonight...just sitting there. Watching it fall. The steady stream of rain falling in perfectly parallel lines...yes, it just kept falling. It was quite mesmerizing and great just sitting there. I was at my friend's 30th birthday party and went outside to get some fresh air. Fresh air it was indeed. I got to share some great stories about my Love and listened to others as they talked about theirs. The difference was was that they got to go home to there love and I got to go home to a memory. Memories are really great things to have and I'm glad that I have so many wonderful ones. I love you Glenn and always will...my baby, my love. :)

It's a "Thinking" Day...

The rain is falling, wind is howling and dark skies above. We're sitting together on the couch watching ELF (yet again) snuggled together under a comfy blanket. My mind starts wandering...only because I've seen this movie a bajillion times THIS YEAR and Megan just says to me, "Don't watch Mommy! He's eating the gum!" She knows this part makes me GAG. Every. Time. She knows me so well and looks out for me. I know I'm doing something right! But then I wonder, if Glenn were still here, would we be this close? Would we be able to sit on the couch in the middle of the afternoon watching ELF for the bajillionth time? It's amazing how life changes spur of the moment, without any notice. I am thankful for my little girl and the relationship we have, but wish every day that it could be different. Not different for the relationship we have, but different in the sense that I wish Glenn were still here obviously. Things I'm sure would be much different now. Probably struggling with two full time careers, raising Megan (and by this point had hoped for a second baby) and trying to pay a mortgage. It's an emotional time of year for me and as Megan gets older and wanting her Daddy more and more, the heartache lasts longer...and although the sadness will always be here, we will get through it together.

Don't wear cushy socks on hardwood floors...

Megan falls on the hardwood floor...

Me: "Blame Aunt Momo for that because she jinxed you!"

Megan (crying but angrily says): "NO! It's YOUR fault because YOU put these socks on me!"

Ok. Let's rewind. Earlier today, Megan's feet felt like ice cubes so I put a pair of the cushiony chenille socks that warm your feet oh so nicely. Maureen comes home from work and Megan starts to act crazy and is running back and forth through the living room and kitchen. Maureen asked her what she bumped into today. Megan is the biggest klutz so it was actually quite amazing that she hadn't yet done anything. Therefore, Maureen jinxed her. Megan goes running into the kitchen and slipped on the floor and fell on her hands and knees. Then of course was the quick exchange of words above...

LOL

Day of Movies

Christmas movies that is. We started the morning with Elf and then watch all 3 of The Santa Clause and finished off the afternoon with another round of Elf. Yes, a very lazy day we had indeed. A day which was much needed for a VERY cranky 4 year old and her tired mama. Elf went off, dinner was eaten, bath taken and now we're ready for bed...well at least she is...or I should say that I am ready for her to be in bed! She is currently jumping from one couch cushion to the next. Where does she get this energy?!!
