Ohhhhh, she's setting the bar so dang high. (Not me)

The woman in my first post 3+ years ago seems almost unbelievable. I mean I want to hate her and be her at the same time. How can such a woman exist? I am certainly not her. Someday I might inch closer to her but not sure I have made much ground on that front in all these years. Lord, help me.

Where am today is a chubby pregnant lady with a great 3 year old and a big funny husband.

Life is good (and hard). I am so blessed but sometimes making it through the next 5 minutes is a challenge. I want to be really good at being a wife and mom but I will tell you it's taking time. Lots of it. I also teach high school math in the hood and live in texas with my cute family and dog Ruby.

I hope to post a few times a week to journal what's going on because I feel like it's such a whirlwind and I am going to somehow miss it if I don't write it down somewhere. For example, I woke up this morning with a three year old arm around my neck. When she realized I was awake she whispered, You're best mommy, mommy." I hope I don't forget those things in this messy wonderful life.
