Our Story

Someone sent me a sweet message on Facebook & told me that I inspired her & that someday I would have a wonderful story to tell Hayden. So with reading that I have been thinking...what kind of story am I going to tell Hayden? What will this story tell him? WOW!!!
I don't want my story to Hayden to be like a sad country song, but in the same return I don't want it to be that life is always sunshine & roses either. I want my story to Hayden to be a story of LEARNING from chances that were taken & about HOPE for chances yet to be taken in life.
Most of all I want him to know that he is truly & honestly loved & that my life is devoted to him. I don't want to be a parent who just says those words or writes those words...I want to be a parent that helps him to believe that!!!
As I dropped Hayden off a day care I thought, "Man, raising a well rounded child is a LOT of HARD WORK! The effort it takes is hard physically, epically when he relies solely on you. But it's hard work emotionally too. As much as I want Hayden to cry & reach for me as I leave him, I realize that him running to his teacher Maxine or running to give his friend Cydney a hug truly shows that I'm a good Mommy & that I'm doing something right.
Excited about what this story will tell Hayden & what I will learn as I write this story!!!
So here's to the next blank page...
