My kids kill me

My little Bryson, somedays I swear he has the worst case of second child syndrome....you know where they do everything they can to make sure you dont want a third.

He literally the sweetest little boy on the planet one minute then BAM he is a spawn of Satan. (Ill blame this on his dad, he was also a delightful child)  The last 2 days I have felt like super crap and he has been SO wonderful about letting me rest.  Sleeping in and then snuggling with me before I have to go to work and all.  Well yesterday as I finally got up and ready for work this switch flipped in him.... like wait...moms out of bed, she must feel better,  now I can be naughty. Everything was fine until he ran his bike into a wall amd knocked down a chalkboard. I didn't even get mad but he lost it.  While getting caught up in how upset he was...for his own actions he thought he should be mad at me.  So as Im having a conversation with a friend who lives in Texas he says, "Just send me to her house!"
Who's house??
"Your friends house!  The girl your talking to!"
She lives in Texas.
"Well!! Send me to Texas, I dont care."

He kept suggesting I send him. Then he decided he wasnt coming with to get Miah from school, he was staying home alone. When I told him it wasnt an option and picked him up he tried to put me in a headlock,  im sure my neighbors enjoyed the show. 

Then he preceeded to say he was going to punch me!! Hold up kid. I told him kids that are naughty like that get sent to jail. What does he say??
"FINE! Call the cops then, I dont care."

So I pretended to do so. That had the water works going real fast!

Then after I got home from work he was a new, sweet adorable kid.

Today, I get home from work and he tells me, in the most excitement ever, his win from church tonight...

"MOM!! I didn't call anyone stupid tonight at church!!""

Ugh, this was also his excitement after his first day of prek. ** He also wanted to make sure if he slips at school and gets kicked onto the street,  that Ill come grab him from the curb. 😂 I assured him, although he would get in trouble, they wouldnt kick him into the street. **

Obviously I told him how awesome that was, but come on dude....cant we just be nice alllllll the time.

Although his are usually pretty out there,  Kamiah likes to compete with him on who can make me crazy the fastest.  And since shes 6, she always knows more than I do. 😐

Somedays I feel like a crazy person for thinking about another,  but they are just so wonderful, why not add another?! 😂😂

That baby grip

Remember when your kids were little tiny babies and they would grip their hands on to anything they could?  When Kamiah was a little tiny baby she would always grip onto the top of my shirt. I would sit there and stare at her forever and think about how much I loved her and how amazing this tiny little person was.

Last night she fell asleep on the couch and I decided to pick her up and bring her into my room for the night. When I grabbed her she woke up just enough to reach out and grab the top of my shirt and didn't let go. For a minute my brain stopped working and went back to when she was just this tiny little baby and that was all I could see was little tiny Kamiah in my arms. When I put her down into bed I had to pull her hand off of my shirt and I seriously almost cried. How could it be that my little tiny baby is 6 years old? It's amazing how fast time really goes. Everyone tells you to enjoy your kids when they're little because it goes so fast but you never really understand how fast it goes until you look back and realize that your babies aren't babies anymore.  As she was cuddled up next to me all I could think about was the little old lady in, I'll love you forever, and how she carried her big adult son to his bed and how fast time went for her.  I can't imagine how fast the next 20 years is going to go but I know that I will do my best to soak up every second with my beautiful little kiddos that I can.  ❤💙

Relationships suck 😂😂

But hear me out, I love the one I'm in.  I just think its shitty how nobody lets you know growing up how much work they are, ESPECIALLY after kids.   Like they say being a mom is a full time job...but really being in a committed relationship - one that you want to grow in a healthy manner- is at least a part time job.  Once we had a family we kind of said,  screw the part time job. We didn't mean to, but we did.  We knew that we needed time for JUST us and we needed to figure out new ways to be excited about eachother. But we didnt.   We still loved eachother but we didnt like eachother much sometimes.

Last month we had this nasty wall we hit. It was a wall we built together through the neglect we were giving our relationship as a couple.  It wasnt just one person, even though at the time it felt that way.  We as a team stopped working on us and that led to a big nasty wall.

We have hit them before, everyone does, but this one was different.   This one was we both dive in 110% to us or we let this wall defeat us.  This is where our world today makes relationships suck.  Today our world has forgotten how to keep a relationship together. I LOVE looking at the fact that my grandparents as well as both of Jeremiahs have been together forever.  And being a realist, I know they made it through their fair share of shit.  But they never gave up, they grew up in a time where that was not what you did.

So we decided to take a couple days to get over ourselves and to get to work on ourselves.   We had some very real, very serious conversations and it honestly filpped this weird switch.   It was really like God was saying, "Hey! Wake up and pay attention to eachother."  We have started to be excited about eachother again, paying attention to eachother like we havent in probably close to 8 years. (A total of almost 10 together)

If you are still reading im going to tell you a funny story....but I'll  warn you now, if a seriously funny story about some of my sex life is too much for you, stop reading NOW!  But if you need a good laugh,  id suggest reading on. 😂

Im going to be super vulnerable right now and lay this story out....

So after this new switch flipped for us we were having some really fantiatic make up sex. And honestly we were about done when it happened....he slipped.

And while trying to quickly put his member back where it was it slipped and tried entering the NO zone. It didnt, but I shit you not, the attempt felt like sitting on top of a cannon as the ball gets shot out!!

I quickly sat up and there was a lot of swearing, and then I felt like I was going to puke....that shit really hurt!

Next thing I know I'm being violently shaken from what I thought was a peaceful sleep....wrong.   As I opened my eyes Jeremiah sat back and took a deep breath,  "Jesus Michelle!!! I couldn't wake you back up!!! I almost called 911"

Umm what??   Yeah, I literally got knocked out having sex. 😂 

I still wasnt remembering what happened.  "Michelle all the sudden you were laying on your side, eyes rolled in the back of your head, hands bent funny held up to the top of your chest(I imagine something like a dead squirrel), and half snoring(peaceful sleep)!" "I thought I was going to have to call 911, but decided to give you one last shake!!" "You were out for minutes!"

At this point I did what any normal person would do, I busted out laughing.  Did this really just happen????   You guys, I wish I could give you the expressions on Jeremiahs face....could you imagine that 911 call???? Ummm my girlfriend and I were having sex and she got knocked out. 😂🤤

Lets try this again!!

Ok. It's been awhile since I've done this so let me give you a quick run down.

My grammer may not alway be correct, I don't care.

My life is a circus,  Im well aware and Im ok with it.

I plan to be super real. Who wants to read fake shit?  We have FB for that. 😂

I have 2 insanely amazing kids and a wonderful boyfriend  (technical term, been together almost 10 yrs... we are practically married).  We have two crazy, lazy cats and always have something nutso happening. He is a mechanic and I work part time along with a network marketong job!  Our kids keep us SO busy!!

So, today was Brysons first day of preschool. He is 4 and could care less about learning....seriously, he was not impressed when I told him he had to learn letters and numbers now.  He is the total opposite of Kamiah, our 6yr old.  Kamiah went into PreK knowing how to write her name....Bryson may or may not be able to sing his ABCs.  He can ride with the big boys at the BMX track and tell you different motor parts!!! Count to 10? Forget it.  Im setting aside extra prayers for his teachers. 🙏🤣

Today we had to leave him crying at school and it killed me!!! Maybe its a mom/ little boy thing but he knows EXACTLY how to pull at my heart strings.  When I picked him up he was SO excited to tell me he didnt have to learn letters today. Haha, ohh kid....you wait.

Kamiah had a zillion things to do today and her first day for Lyrical rec team at dance was one!! Then I had to be "that mom" and pull her out of her ymca activity 15 min early...to make bed time.  I mean...its from 6 to 8, I feel like a weirdo thinking thats a tad late for little kids on a school night.  But Im not kidding when I say, If she isnt in bed close to 8pm she is a monster in the morning.  I also understand this is karma. I was and possibly still am, not a morning person.  If I knew this would be my punishment as a kid, my ass would have flown out of bed EVERY MORNING!  Sorry, mom and dad.

Since FB would probably block my posts if they were this long, Ill keep the good stories here! But for now, today was mild.  Busy,  but uneventful.   Off to do some laundry and get my butt to bed.   We only have so much sleep time comfortably before Bryson makes his way downstairs and sneaks into ours!
