So part of me being positive about life and myself is reminding myself of things that I love and/or things that have blessed me. I found this blog hop today on A Babbling Brunette's blog while I was checking up on my Toddler Talk Tuesday link. Its the perfect thing I need! So starting this week, I will share with you what I am loving! Enjoy! I'm loving teaching my students hip hop twice a week instead of the usual once a week. Makes it alot easier for the younger ones to remember the steps thus learning. Yes! I'm loving that I get to spend the majority of my day with my children still. On aveage, I work maybe three times a week for two and a half hours each time? That is nothing compared to most people. I definitely feel blessed. :) I'm loving that breastfeeding is going so well for Anna and I. She is a natural and it has made life so much easier on me! So blessed to not be having issues this time around! I'm loving that this weekend brings not o...

Happy Friday everyone! I am so glad that its Friday because this week has drug by soooooooooo slowly and has been so stressful for me. I just can't wait for the weekend! Plus today is Uncle Kalvin's birthday party at the Reef. Alan and I will be making a short appearance there since its right during his nap time lol. :) Tonight I work only three hours at Child Watch and then get to go to Bryson's Photo Studio to view my wedding photos! :D Then Saturday I work all day (blah to the max lol) and Sunday is Mother's Day. :) So who knows what Lon and Alan have planned for me, they've been being very secreative lately. And now for Five Question Friday!! Enjoy! Have you ever had roommates? Have I ever lol! I have had seven different roommates throughout my adult life. How many names do you/your children have?

And now for Mama M's Five Question Friday!! What is your favorite sign of spring? The sound of birds chirping. <3 Oooh, I love that sound so much, I will sometimes turn off all sounds in my house and open up all the windows just so it can fill my ears and my heart! :) What was your best birthday ever? That would have to be a tie between my 18th birthday and my 19th birthday. For my 18th birthday, we were already in Las Vegas fo...

Top Two Songs on your Ipod!! Like The Undomestic Mama, I do not have a Ipod lol. :) I used to, my senior year of high school, but it was ruined in 2008 by a spiteful ex girlfriend of my current boyfriend at that time. So I will, like The Undomestic Mama, post my top two favorite songs (as of right now lol). #1 "Digital Love" by Daft Punk #2 "She Don't Use Jelly" by the Flaming Lips I've been viewing a lot of these and I think I'm also gonna post some runner up songs.

"Music is amazing. There's some metaphysical comfort where it allows you to be isolated and alone while telling you that you are not alone... truly, the only cure for sadness is to share it with someone else." Wayne Coyne, The Flaming Lips Hope everyone has a great Monday!!
