To my husband

you make my world freeze.
Its not just a fairy tale.
It is a reality I never thought i would have.
To have someone so caring and loving.
I want nothing more than to make you happy.
I feel like a stupid girl thinking that I couldn't have this.
This is nothing like the movies,
This is how it should be.
You still my heart and calm me.
You make me smile when I feel that feat is impossible.
When I am in my darkest place,
there you are with a flash light calling me a weirdo for standing in the dark.
You are the one who holds my hand through the scary parts,
and are there to wipe away my tears when I am sad.
You hold me and tell me that it will be ok.
I love to hear you speak.
your words always surprise me.
You teach me more about love that I didn't know about.
I am good at ruining surprises and yet you surprise me all the time.
you make me smile all the time.
Even when we are just sitting on the couch watching a movie,
you make me fall in love with you over and over again.
You challenge me. test my limits and make me reach and push farther than I have.
You are meant for me.
You are my reward for the hardships I have dealt with.
You are the knight in shining armor I was waiting for.
The man I love, My partner through life, my lover.
I adore you.

I have heeded my own advice

I have stopped for what feels like a minute.  To take stock, to focus to do all of the required and cliche elements to slowing down and what I can tell you, they are not for me.  Slowing down requires you to actually stop, and I feel like I physically cannot do it, nor does time allow it.  My children have not slowed down with their exploits, nor has time actually slowed down for me to appreciate things, so I speed along with it.  Grayson is losing all of his teeth... he has caught up to Sterling in that regard and goodness, that child is 8 going on 20. He wants to be big so fast that it is alarm at what he is attempting to learn and accomplish, and completely by himself.  He is staunchly independent, like his parents, and all the while they grow and learn at an unfathomable rate.  I don't know who wrote it but I have heard this quote go around that "time is a thief" and when I was younger I didn't really fathom that, I sure do now. My little humans are not...

Coming back into the fold...

 I have been absent. It has been due in part to life getting busy. Busy with the kids, with jobs, and with living. But that doesn't change the fact that I have stories to tell, well not necessarily stories, but perceptions and observations to unfold for me and share with a couple of people who might feel the same.  My life has been upside down lately. Over the last few years, we have seen a lot of change and loss. But we have also evolved with the good too. The children are wonderful, growing into amazing and unique human beings and that is a wonderful thing to bear witness to. We have been spending time with our people and just generally loving life.  However, that love of life doesn't just come with one emotion, but all of them. Autumn is usually a transitional time where things go back to sleep and return to the earth to wait until a spring awakening. It is also a time for reflection and change, and well, our fall was all about that. I had moved into a new position (no...

3 years

 3 years of feelings, of joys and triumphs you have missed.  3 years of laughs, of plans, and of trips. We would have wanted to share the experiences with you, and yet you marched out into the great beyond, setting a path for all of us to follow one day. Mom, you were a trailblazer in that regard. The hole you left in our lives is not smaller but somehow we have grown around it. We keep space for you but we are growing and changing everyday.  Things I wish I could tell you: - I turned 40. You were amazed when I was turning 37 and somehow 3 years went by and now I am 40.  - Grayson and Sterling have grown and are little dudes now with all of the humour and ridiculousness that they seem to muster. You would be in stitches for the things they say.  - Sophia has two more years and then she is off to post-secondary. How they hell did that happen so quickly. Your Diva misses you.  - Dad is going on a trip with us and has helped us significantly. You would not app...
