School Bullies

It was so so busy today. Ugh, where do I begin?! Note to self: wake up much earlier to get a head start on my day. For a while, I had been waking up at 5:30am every day, even sometimes on the weekends and I loved it! And I guess something happened, don't k ow what, I started to get up out of bed later and later. Well, no more miss sleepy head!

On another note, we have got to figure something out for Angie. She's been acting out for over a week with a lot of Anger and we finally figured out why. Kids at her school are saying "bad words" to her. She says that she walks away from them and tells the teacher about it. But, I know that it's terrifying her because she will get angry about almost anything and begin to say the words she hears at school and seems to be unusually frustrated. It's like it's always in her head. I'm going to talk to her teacher about it. I wish I could do something to fix it right away though. There's nothing worse than not being able to fix things for our kids so that their environment stays evil-free, if that term is ever used. I just hope she won't be one of the bullied kids at school because I know that it feels terrible to be bullied....and Angie just doesn't know how to handle it except to walk away and tell an adult. She knows that it's not okay to speak words like those because she is always saying "it's not ok to say bad words, we have to be nice to everybody". And what are their parents allowing them to learn? Where are these kids learning it from? These words that they say are terrible! We don't even say them at home!

This is just so heartbreaking- not being able to help and knowing that she is hearing these things at school, when she needs to concentrate the most- where she spends most of her time.

I'm going to look for information online and post it here- this is just crazy.

Las Vegas Here We Go!

We are counting the days! And less than 4 to go! We are so excited!

We're going for the famous Las Vegas Super Show, which is on Sunday. I'm looking forward to seeing all the awesome cars and spending time with GoodTimers! And not to mention the partying! It's going to be my first time there, so we'll see how I like it. 

Now, I'm trying to figure out what the heck to wear...Dress? Skirt? Leggings? I don't know. But I am gonna get my nails done! Yay! (Gotta get an appt though hehe)

I'm going to miss the kiddos but I know they will be in good hands. Good thing they'll be asleep when we leave.

I don't think we'll be able to sleep because we're leaving on Friday at 4am! And EVERY TIME we make a trip, we have such a hard time sleeping because we just wanna go. Lol! It'll be a nice trip- we're carpooling with a couple friends who are being so nice that they are sharing their timeshare with us.

Most of all, I am so grateful that we are even able to go on a trip. Thank you, love! I'm sure it will be an unforgettable trip. 

Let's Blog!

Life has been so hectic, wonderful, crazy, awesome, adventurous, full of blessings, etc. I am so proud of having an awesome family. We have our ups and downs, highs and lows, challenges and victories, good times and not so good times, but it is IMPERFECTLY PERFECT! What kind of a life would it be if it wasn't that way?

I'm starting this blog because for a while I've wanted to speak out as a wife, mom, friend, daughter, etc. and share what my life is like- from my view.

I'm no great writer but who cares, right?! Let's just do this!
