Have you ever wondered if your kids REALLY knew how much you loved them? Explain it to them in terms of food. Use their favorite foods to really get the point across. A cupcake isn’t really a cupcake with the icing, its just a muffin. A cupcake NEEDS that icing to make it whole, to make it what it really is. Tell your kids you aren’t whole without them, tell them they complete you better than Jerry Maguire ever could. You are the Apple Of My Eye just doesn’t cut it anymore.
You Are….
My Job as Mom
It’s hard; whoever told you motherhood was going to be easy was a liar and setting you up for disaster. Early mornings, late nights, interrupted sleep, messy house, wrinkled clothes, no alone time; these are just some of the things moms look forward to on a daily basis.
Don’t get me wrong, everyday isn’t a whirlwind of laundry, errands and school meetings. Some day’s you’ll have sweet moments cuddling on the couch reading “But Not the Hippopotamus” 14 times or heart to heart talks about the difference between mimosas and margaritas.
Each day is different and brings new challenges, new obstacles, new miracles, new laughs and new smiles. With all the hard times and headaches also come overwhelming heart pounding love each time the words “mommy, I love you” is uttered from their lips. Watching them grow and seeing the impact they make on the world around is all worth it.

Happy Anniversary To Us
Today is our 9 year anniversary.
When I was younger I use to look at my parents and grandparents and wonder how and why people stay married for so long. I met Melinda and I understood why. Don’t get me wrong we are human just like everyone else but It has been a great 9 years with some bad time but mostly awesome times. Marriage is work and I am glad Melinda and I work together everyday.
I am so happy to be married to Melinda and I am glad she is the mother to my crazy kids.
May today be filled with happy memories of the past and bright hopes for the future.
I Love You Babe!!
I Am Very Lucky!!!
I wanted to write a quick post to tell everyone how lucky I am to have Melinda.
So we are in the midst of a move from MD to DE and I am excited to move back to DE but not excited to pack. For about 2 weeks now we have been trying to pack a few boxes everyday so that at the end of June we won’t be scrambling to get everything done. On Tuesday we had a container delivered from 1800RATPACK so we could start storing our belongings because before we move we need to paint our entire house (this is going to suck).
Needless to say I am tired and stressed. I am driving everyday from MD to DE and DE back to MD for work so that I can continue to pack during the week. All of the driving and packing is making me a grouchy PITA and the person who bares the brunt of my bad moods is Melinda which isn’t fair to her. I get annoyed with packing and tired and sweaty from carrying boxes from the house to the container outside and when Melinda asks a question I snap for no reason. I don’t ask for help I demand it which is wrong on so many levels. Melinda is my equal and I have been treating her like total crap for no reason what so ever.
I want to tell Melinda I am so sorry for being an a$$ and I will not be suck a jerk. Thank you for all of your help because I wouldn’t be able to do this without you. I need you and I Love You so much. I am soooo sorry! Please forgive me!
