That Tough Choice

I think I had the greatest compliment I have ever had recently. As parents we all have to think about what would happen if we were gone and no longer able to care for our children. We all have to think who would we trust with our most precious gifts. I had to make that choice a long time ago with my wacky family to be sure if any thing happened to Mohawk daddy and I that Monkey would be raised like we would like and be able to see BOTH sides of the family without an issue. His daddy and I think we made the best choice. But for the first time ever someone thought that i was a good enough parent that they asked that of me. I can't even tell you how amazing it is. Someone thinks I am a good enough mom that they would trust me with their most precious gifts. Now here is hoping that nothing never happens because of course it is one of my dearest friends I couldn't bare to loose but I was feeling very touched and thought I would share.

A Month

I know it has been a month since I have posted. I am sorry life just ran away with me. It is the end of my semester for school so I am gearing up for final exams. But I had to share this little story with all of you. Mohawk Baby and I were riding in the car a few days ago. When I looked in the back seat he was just sitting there. I asked if he was going to start on his breakfast he said

"In a minute mom I am searching for my inner peace."

Fairly sure I hadn't heard what I thought I did I said excuse me? He said

" I am looking for my inner peace it is somewhere here (gesturing to his heart)
around my heart."

Trying not to laugh I told him when he found his inner peace he needed to eat to nourish his inner body. I just love that boy he says the funniest stuff.
