May 2009

So, May is here and it is the end of school. YEAH and BOOOO!! I love my kids to be out but I hate them to not be in school and have to find stuff to keep them busy!! I joined Golds gym and have decided to get back in shape!! But the first week I joined I screwed my back up and now my SIATICA is back. Yippee! SO, I have been spending this month going to the chiro and other dr.'s trying to start feeling better, but it is not helping much! =0( So, I had to put my membership on hold and get my back better first. Tahlayne got to go to the Beach (acworth lake) for the first time. She loved the sand and wanted to play in it the hole time. I got sun burned bad, 3 hours will do that to you. Rocky and Nana loved the water and Te' swam out to touch the buoy. All my kids love the water and we will be pretty much living at the lake or the pool all summer. I have finally filed for all the things that I needed to, so that my kids can hopefully be taken care of. We shall see what happens. Filed for bankruptsy and will be going to court the 23rd of June. Now, to find a car and a place to live that will accomidate 4 kids and a mom. God will provide. That is what I decided my MOTTO for this year will be.

GOD WILL ALWAYS PROVIDE!

April 09 Easter and much more

April was a good month. We had lots of fun going to 4 different Easter Egg hunts. The kids got lots of candy and it was a full day. We went to Daddys house Easter morning, instead of church, and we all went to eat at IHOP. That is where Te' choosed to go. It was good food and the kids acted pretty good too. then we went back to dantes' house and the kids took a nap and he got to spend time with Tahlayne and we all watched a movie. It was a GOOD day.

Spring break was this month and we decided to go to Foam Factory with the Wilkins. It was a blast. We played in the balls and shot them at each other. The kids really liked it. WE got a great deal and will definetely go back. We ended up at Burger King afterwards and it was a FULL day of FUN!!

I started my new job this month and the kids started. Going to Daycare. This is the first time that I had to leave my sweet babies with a sitter all day long. Tahlayne did great and I just had to take pump breaks. It was super hard but God got me through it and Mrs. Rae our childcare provider is truelly a life saver. God is soo good to me.

March 00
















Tahlayne was dedicated on Sunday the 15th at Wildwood Baptist Church. It was beautiful. Daddy came, but left right afterwards. Rocky turned 2 on March 15th. He is such a big boy now. We had his Birthday party at McDonalds. Lots of his friends came and it was fun and stressful. Very loud! LOL!! Daddy took Rocky to hang with him for a little while, they went to Wal-Mart to get a present and new shoes, they showed up late and Rocky was asleep. I was very upset that the birthday boy was not there on time and was sleeping when he got there. He finally woke up and had fun. Mommy was stressed. Daddy left after about 5 minutes. It wil definately be a day I remember, bad or good, my baby boy turned 2 years old and my sweet little girl was baptized. I promised myself that day that I would do my best to give my kids a better life than they have had so far and that I would do everthing I couls not to let my baby girl ever go through what I have been through. Through prayer this is all possible.

Feb. 09 The leave

Decided that this month would be the month I would have to say goodbye to the man I loved and who fathered 3 of my children. We had been struggling for sometime time to just make it. We were not doing good and it was definately affecting the kids. They were acting out and yelling and being clingy. Then Dante's brother was dropped off at his work and that was the straw that broke the camels back. I had been packing up the house for a move, but then I got the kids neccessities and my stuff together and headed to my sisters house. I turned 27 the 16th of this month, and now I was a single mom of 4 kids 7yrs. old and younger. Stressed was an understatement. My sister took me in and loved me and supported me.
