Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right.-- The Beatles
So much has been going on lately. It's almost too much to take in at once. My sister Anna will be moving with her Josh to Iowa by the end of this month. We are leaving early Monday for Tallahassee we are going to look at apartments Tuesday.... Then we are driving to Mexico Beach. The rates are SUPER CHEAP on this motel I found so... We are going to stay there 3 nights!! I didn't know I was gonna get a vacation out of this trip we were really just planning to go to Tallahassee to look for an apartment. From what I've read there isn't much at Mexico but that's exactly whet we wanted, just a quiet place to enjoy the beach with our family. I'm so excited! I've never even been to Tallahassee actually. I can't wait to see what Jack thinks. He was just 17 months when we went to the beach last time and that was tourist trap crappy Myrtle.
I think the stress of all the change it just wearing me out! I woke up with a migraine yesterday. I haven't had ONE in almost two months which is really good for me. Josh was really sweet about it. I fell back asleep, for two hours and he watched the kiddies. Then I woke up at 1 and still it hadn't let up! So my Mom said she would watch Bella and Jack overnight. Josh drove them over and got me some Advil Migraine which I just started taking a few months ago and so far it really helps!! It was so quiet!! It's just strange to think we will REALLY be on our own,
it's TIME. I can defiantly tell a huge difference in the kids behavior after just spending one night at my Mom's. She pretty much lets them run wild, and they know it's a free for all at Mimi's!! Bella says. "You tell Mimi not to give us candy, and then she gives us even MORE!" Which isn't exactly true but that pretty much sums it up! We are ready to be on our own and have wanted to move for SO long! I think it will really boost my confidence a lot as a Mom to have to do it all myself. If anything my Mom has been way too over involved in the kids lives and it's caused problems. Just because our parenting styles are so COMPLETELY different. And she will also undermined us in front of them which makes Josh livid. But oh well, I know in a few months I'll probably be soooo homesick! But it's time!!! I'm already looking into getting certified as a Doula once we get down there. It's something I wanted for a really long time now. Plus it will put me in touch with other mamas! All good things!!
