Well it Friday here in the home of superman. I am writing early today because on the weekends I hope to do something fun with the family. The drive -in has Brave thinking about going there but who knows :) What are your weekend plans? I have to plan it is just not normal if i do not have at least three days planned ahead. I plan out my day before bed each night and then I try to stay as close to it as I can but as a momma its hard to keep up with those plans. Kids have a way to make changes in a day at a drop of a hat.
Tomorrow my second son comes home he has been at his dads since June. I am so excited to get him back, the summer is nice to have a break but with in a week or two I am ready for him to come home. He is one of my ADHD children. He has out grown some of the effects of this but has started a lot of new effects. Even in his worst moods though he is always my baby. He has a smile that can just make a bad day turn great. He thinks way outside the box that sometimes I can not keep up. He loves with every ounce in his body and wears it right on his sleeve.
Friday also means my daughter is headed to her dads. She is my other ADHD child though i feel they have that wrong. She is my baby brat in every way there is to be a brat. Though my love for her is more then one momma can ever feel she is going to test that love more times then any of my other kids. Maybe it is being a girl or maybe its being the baby of the family?? She loves everything and everyone. She can ask so many questions in a hour that you are to the point of saying ok break time. Momma needs to rest her brain:) She is boy crazy ( Lord help me when she becomes a teen), weekly she has a new boyfriend thank goodness at this age its just words. Then when I look into her eyes I see the most bright, loving, and soft hearted child in the world. I waited so many years to get a girl and she was the most wonderful blessing ever.
Friday also means that my oldest child has left for his last summer vacation with some family friends. He is off to Tennessee, lucky butt!!! He just turned sixteen. If as a parent you have not worried a day in your life yet ( which i would find amazing cause i worried from day one) but if you have not then the day you hand them the keys it is panic time. He is a great son, he is hard working, caring, athletic, and loving. Though he does have that teenage mouth going and trying to find his place in the world you still get to see the great kid he has became and the wonderful man he will become.
Nothing special on Friday for my third son he just gets to spend it with momma and dad ( step dad ). He is my Mr. Magoo, when he was born he looked like an old man and well the nick name stuck. He is my miracle baby!! He was born with water on the brain, his lungs was under developed, and he just could not seem to stay healthy. They told me he would never walk, talk, or play like other kids. Let me tell you he can out run most kids, out talks all of us, and plays till he wears everyone out. He is a dare devil at heart and will probably be the grown man keeping his insurance in business and his wife on nerve pills. If it is scary, dangerous or what a momma would call a better not do that he is in neck deep trying it out. He is extremely smart but choices to not apply it. Drives his teachers nuts. Drives me nuts, I just hope he out grows it and finds his mark on the world. Maybe have to change his nickname to Dr. Magoo.
I have been a momma since i was sixteen. It is all I have known to do and all I could imagine ever doing. I make all my plans with all four of my babies in mind always. You never know when one will drop the hat and change that plan but is that not the fun in being a parent that never two days are the same. Some are good some are bad and some just leave that mark on your heart that you are doing this parenting thing right and that your children will grow up to be a happy healthy adult. Is that not every parents wish......
