All Clear!!!

So for the past 2 months our little "angel", and I use the term loosely, has been dealing with double ear infections and an eye infection. All that to say, we are all clear! She just has some wax build up, but that can be taken care of quite easily. So, you are probably wondering why I am put quotes around angel? Well, for some reason, this daughter of ours seems to be getting more of an attitude every day. And the worst is during the night. It is that moment right before bedtime where she gives us the most trouble. Now don't get me wrong, we love her to death, but this has got to stop. And I know some of you are thinking, "She is just an innocent baby. How could something so sweet, be trouble." (Could you sense my sarcasm?) My answer... You try living with her for a while. I'm just kidding. I wouldn't give her up for anything, except... Again, just kidding. But for real, we love her so much and enjoy all the time we get with her, good times and bad times.

We also celebrated Alisha's very first Mother's Day. All Alisha wanted was a massage, breakfast cooked for her and a hot bath, and she wanted it all while she didn't have to take care of Reece. Well, we tried. We got everything accomplished on the list, except for her not having to take care of Reece. Hey, we are still trying to get this whole parenting thing down, and I know some of you out there are saying, "That's all she wanted. You could have at least given her that much." We tried. I know the areas I lack and I know that there are days when Alisha just wants to be left alone. No one said I was perfect, but we did have a good time being a family on the day to celebrate Alisha being a mom. This quote sums her up more than anything I can find. She is the most amazing mother I know. She holds a full time job, takes care of Reece, and still manages to get the lawn mowed. (LOL)

I just want to give a belated Happy Mothers Day to the mom's that seem to never stop working at being mothers. Mom, Janice and Brenda, we love you all and hope that you had an amazing day being celebrated and cherished. Mothers are truly a gift from God and we are so blessed to have 3 amazing women who have poured their lives into ours. Ryan, Alisha and Reece.
