Monday

Lucky me, I didn't have class today...kind of a nice little break.  The weekend just didn't really feel much like a weekend, so today I am taking the liberty of relaxing at home, cleaning, and getting ready for another week.  We drove over to Westchester, New York Saturday night to visit my brother-in-law, who was in from Chicago.  It was so nice to see family out here.  We hit up a Thai restaurant that didn't really feel "Thai-ish", but..it worked I guess, and after that we went to see Ides of March.  Interesting movie...I've seen better though :).  Sunday we got home in the afternoon and had some students over to make pizza and watch movies.  The rest of the evening was spent skyping a friend and relaxing with my husband a little bit.  The weather had been perfect the last few days, but with that brings the stink bugs and Japanese beetles...NOT cool!  

Really looking forward to this week, because my teacher spent last week in Santa Monica, Ca at a Vidal Sassoon educators conference thing learning lots of new things to bring back straight to me and my classmates :).  I can't wait to soak up all the greatness!  And...next week we start COLOR!!  I still can't really believe I am finally following my dreams, I know some people may not "approve" or "applaud" me for it, but I have never been more happy.  I am starting to feel that purpose that everyone looks for.  I have God, I am married to the love of my life, he has a job he loves, we have a nice place to live, gorgeous scenery, we are healthy, we have a "family"..Gabriel 
(puppy) and Henry (kitty),
 and I am finally working towards a goal I have had for a while now.  My school is awesome, my classmates are friendly, this experience is just so cool :) :).  


This is my Monday.
Looking forward to the holidays and in 36 DAYS one of my favorite people will be here for a visit..a very short one, but nonetheless it will be great!!

The Questions...

Do we choose to let our past define our future?  How do we live for today?  How do we find peace when we are living in fear?  Should we embrace change or run from it?  Those heartaches... how do we heal?  Where do we turn?  Is anyone on our side?  Will we ever survive these trials, these battles, these valleys?  How do we get back up? Questions that everyone will ask themselves at some point in their journey through life.  Who do you run to?  Who do you trust?  Where do you find your hope?  Family, friends, neighbors, preachers, teachers, counselors, social media, alcohol, drugs?  I think we have all fallen and crawled to the path of least resistance only to find ourselves in more despair.  The "easy" way out isn't always so. We must be broken.  We must be shattered.  We must be torn.  We must be shaken.  We must be molded. The only place to find true peace, true love, true happiness, true jo...

my intentions:)

Once again, I am writing in hopes to encourage myself to be a little more intentional about keeping up with this little blog I started 6 years ago.   In my short journey with the twins and G, I have searched the internet for any and all advice, info, reviews, and help in the form of blogs, forums, and videos.  There is plenty of all of that out there, but to my dismay I haven't found a lot of what I have been searching for.  My hopes in writing about our family's experiences and opinions, is that another mom or family with similar dynamics as ours will find it helpful.  I may not attract anyone here, and that's fine too.  I really just want to be able to look back in a few years and be able to smile about the journey.   A few things I hope to blog about are: Postpartum blues Marriage with infant twins and a 3 yr old Breastfeeding Twins Domestic travel with infant twins & 3 yr old International travel with twins & 3 yr old A day in t...
