I Need A Fighter...

I'm not one for country music but when i first heard 'The Fighter' by Keith Urban and Carrie Underwood it spoke to me... if i remember correctly i was sitting at the pool this summer. 
I'm going to break it down for you in my own MB style...

HE HURT ME...
He hurt me.  He promised he wouldn't.  He not only made me scared of love but terrified.  You maybe different but that doesn't mean i won't question it.   That pain isn't easily washed away.  In some form it will always be there. And i'm sorry its the aftermath or after shock waves of my past. He didn't realize what he had until it was gone.

I'M GOING TO FALL...
Falling is a part of life and i'm going to need you to hold me.  I'm going to need reassurance.  I've never had a man that treated me the way a women deserves to be treated.  Sadly this goes all the way back to my childhood. 

I WILL CRY, AND I'LL BE SCARED...
I am scared, When the pain tries to get to me, just hold me tighter. 

WHAT YOU SEE I DON'T SEE... 
We're our own worst critic.  I want so badly to believe what you say.

BUT...
I've come a very long way. When you meet me i'm one of the most confident and positive women you meet.  But, i'm human... I will give you everything, every part of me.  I am as faithful and loyal as they come.  I want nothing more than to give you all my heart.  Together with the right man by my side we can get through anything.  My request may seem complicated but it's actually very simple.  What you give i'll give back in return 10 times over.  Just wait, you'll see... Just be a fighter, a fighter on my team.

Putting in the HARD Work

 My son Josiah is an excellent soccer player.  He started playing at a very early age.  He practiced and practiced until he started to see the results he wanted.  This wasn't where his hard work would stop.  He knew as did I as his mother he would have to continue to put in the hard work day in and day out if he wanted to make the team of his choice as well as be competitive with the other boys.   When he first started he was shy and wasn't willing to take many risks.  The more time he spend on the field he realized that he had to put himself out there and try new things.  Just when he would think he's at the top there are always better players and better teams.  The hard work never really stops.  I'm so proud of the young man and soccer play he has become.  This leads me to a phrase many have heard me say.  Any relationship and especially a good one it takes a lot of HARD work. What does that mean? Shouldn't the right rel...

The Night Before the Last Day of PreK

 Tomorrow I will wrap up another year teaching PreK.  9 months ago I met my tiny new best friends.  At first I mourned the loss of my previous class but eventually they grew on me and I fell in love with each of them.   The end of the school year (for those who love what they do) is like a really terrible break up.  This week has been full of emotion, some personal but a lot of sadness about what's coming to an end.  I'm not going to say that this year has been smooth or easy.  There have been many challenges. If you think about the amount of time I spend with these children each day it's a lot.  I spend almost 5 hours each day 4 days a week with theses kiddos.   There have been tears (from them and myself). When they walked through my door 9 months ago many of them were quiet, scared and unfamiliar with me.  I was able to earn their trust, and show them that I was more than just their teacher.  I loved them and was comple...

Seriously...

This weekend I made reservations to celebrate a good friends birthday.  It's always hard in the month of December to do anything besides the "Holidays".  But, I wanted to make sure the day didn't pass without her feeling special.  To make the day extra special she invited a few other friends and their children.   We finally got settled in and I noticed this guy, he had noticed our table too.  I kept racking my brain trying to figure out how I knew him.  I playing over my students dads, my boys friends dads, other dads at school, my social circle but I kept coming up short.  I finally said something to my friend and she said, Oh he's on the dating apps.  (One of the first things I often do is check fingers for rings to eliminate that as a possibility...he had a ring).  I said but, he has a ring.  She said, exactly.  This is what were dealing with.  The man was clearly out with family and extended family but is spending his ...
