Safe to say....


 Its safe to say that I have accepted I have made myself accept the fact that MY baby is now a big Kindergartner.  6 weeks into the school year and I am just making myself post these. I have a problem with him growing up.

  
 We took off to a local park and brought along some of his favorite books one afternoon. It was the first week of school and everything was still new and fresh and it was here, whether I liked it or not. 


This book has always melted my heart. And when we get to the part:
                                           I'll love you forever,
                                           I'll like you for always,
                                           As long as I'm living
                                           my baby you'll be.
Jaxon reads it to me. And its something that only him and I share. I couldn't be more proud of the sweet, kind, caring, young little boy he has turned out to be. I have forgotten all the nerve racking tantrums he once had. The food thrower he once was. The poop smearer. The sharpie on the wall artist. The restless little boy who I thought would never go to sleep some nights. The kid I thought who would never pee in the toilet. All of that was short lived and there are some days I long to hold the baby in a onsie that let me rock him to sleep. The baby that would play with my ear until he fell asleep. The baby that learned to walk by holding my hand and taking 24 steps around the living room in one evening. The toddler that feed me soggy cheetos and stole my cherry cokes. The toddler that learned his dad was his only hero and to this day he still knows that. 


He will never out grow a playground. His eyes will always be full of wonder. And he will always have a huge hold on his mom and daddy's heart!


All boy. All the time.


 HI MOM!! LOOK UP HERE!


Love this kid more than he will ever ever know! 


 Perfection.

Jaxon,
I know it will be years before I introduce you to this blog. Not really sure if you will have interest in what I wrote about you from the time you were a small little peanut to the young man you grew up to be. But regardless, these post are just a few things about your life I wanted to share. Things you were to young to understand had I told them to you. You can show your wife and kids one day. (After college and you have a great career of course!) :) You mean the world to me because I waited for you. I knew I was going to be blessed with a son. I just never knew I was going to be blessed with the best little boy God could ever create! You are such a blessing to your dad and I and I hope you understand that when I say I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK that I truly mean it. You definitely have always had a way and charm about you to turn my bad days into great days. My not so good moments of mommy-hood in to some of the most memorable moments I have every had.  I also hope you understand that I would do anything on this earth for you to continue to grow and learn and just be the terrific little boy that you are. The little boy that stole my heart the first time I heard his.

 Love,
Momma

The torture. The madness

I try. I try to make food last. I try to stick to a grocery budget and sometimes ( more than I'd like) I fail. I'm slowly getting better at buying the important stuff in bulk. Our main meats. Beef. Chicken. Pork. I can stretch that out for months. The big things of Sunny D last about 3 weeks....etc you get the idea. The worst thing I could possibly do is go to Sams on a Saturday afternoon. WHY?? WHY do I do that to myself? It's not like I'm that busy Monday thru Friday! O well lesson learned. When I do go back it will be on a Tuesday morning....a few months from now!

Johnson Family 2013 ~ Year Review Part 1

   This has been a great year of change, growth and accomplishments. Jaxon turned 5 this year and started Pre-K. Jessie is in the 3rd grade and she turned 9 this year. Jill turned 12 and is greatly enjoying the 7th grade. Him and Jessie love doing crafts at the table. Paint, color, draw, cut and paste! They are defiantly my busy bodies!    This was the year for wild and wacky hair. Jessie went purple at the beginning of Jan. They chose crazy hair as a reward for staying on the A or A/B Honor Roll. They are now back to their original colors and, even though the wacky colors were fun and exciting, I am glad they are back to their roots :)    I had spent hours in 2012 on Pintrest. And one of my Resolutions were to start putting my pins to use! I have the girls bookshelf a makeover. And even pinned my own work on Pintrest!    I became "public" about my Alopecia. Only family and very few friends knew of my new condition. And once ...
