This weekend was Trinity’s 12th birthday. It seems like only yesterday I was writing about her carnival themed birthday party that I hosted while Tiara was in the hospital recovering from another pneumonia. Remember that? Well this year was soooo much better because Tiara wasn’t in the hospital and we had the CRAFT SHACK come…

I don’t have a choice, really?
Often I hear this statement and I just shake my head in disagreement. We always have a choice, whether we like the options or not, that is besides the point, we as humans have the ability to choose how we live our lives. There is one area of life that drives me crazy when I…
What I haven’t shared lately….
For some reason, I have been doing tons of things at home and dealing with lots of issues, of which I haven’t shared with you. The first being is that I have come to the realization Trinity needs some testing to determine if she has a learning disability. School life shouldn’t be this hard for…
Is a cold life threatening for Tiara?
This is the question Trinity asked me on Friday afternoon after I told her I had taken Tiara to the doctor’s earlier in the day because she was coming down with a cold. The way she phrased this question really struck me. How many 11 year old’s would use the phrase “life threatening”? It…
Another almost wordless wednesday…
Today I am showing you a bunch of pictures because I am beyond exhausted. Lou and I had an phone appointment at 6am this morning and all night I kept waking up worrying about missing the appointment. I am sure you all know that feeling of worrying about missing something important so you can’t sleep.. …
conference week, fun times….
So today was Trinity’s first conference for the year and there was no surprises, at least not on my end. I do think the teachers were a little surprised to hear how much effort I put into helping her study each night. I am not going to tell you she has straight A’s, but…
Being me can be difficult….
I was having a great day and then someone texted me something and my entire mood changed. I instantly felt BLAH, BLUE, CRAPPY, SAD, IRRITATED, FRUSTRATED AND ANGRY all at once. I kept telling myself “no one can make you feel bad about yourself, only you can do that Tiffani.” Giving myself therapy didn’t work. …
You’re so pretty!
This is Lou’s favorite thing to say to all his girls. The funny thing is that if Tiara is in earshot of any compliment given to anyone but her, she immediately jumps to attention, pats her own chest and says “me, me!” This morning Lou and I were standing in the kitchen watching Tiara eat…
Almost Wordless Wednesday strikes again…..
So these pictures represent a few hours of our Tuesday. Last but not least a video of Tiara during out walk, which Trinity insisted on filming and wanted it in the blog, so here it is. FYI, this is pretty much…
What a way to wake up….
Tuesday morning I woke up earlier than I wanted because I heard Lou moving around in the kitchen. He squeaked in the door the night before just as I was falling asleep so I wanted to spend some time with him before he left for work. I walked into the kitchen to start the coffee…
