So,I alaways write so much on my Facebook every day to fill a few paragraphs, so I figured why not put it on here for the world to share. Let me start of with the naming of my blog.
Mermaids ad Manatees... Well, Mermaids comes from when I was younger ,I always slept in a sleeping bag, and would walk out into my living room every morning waddling ,and my little sister always said I looked like a mermaid, because you couldn't see my feet..lol!!! From that I have been nicknamed Mermaid!!
The Mantatee part is a private joke between my mom and sis, we were talking one day, and I thought she said something else, and it wound up being something else, well My mom says manatee!!! So, it has become the only we know joke, and whenever one of us says something, and hears it differently, one of us will say manatee. That's just the silly stuff that goes on in our family.
We are a very close knit family, kinda mafia-ish, some would say, cause If ya hurt one of us, Imma make a call, and ya wind up sleeping wit da fishes,capesh!!:O) Well, its not really that into but, we take care of our own, and when ya become part of the family, your in it for life.
In my blogs I wish to talk about the everyday life of a stay at home mom, not all the glory job some think it is, the worst part of it all, is not having any sick days!!! I can't say that I don't get paid, because, I have a wonderful husband who loves and supports me, and takes care of all our children, I couldn't ask for a more perfect husband, he is my soul mate.
I love all things Disney!!! I have been to Disney prolly over 200 times over in my lifetime!! I never get sick of it! I love it when people say your going there again???? Yes, I am! You can stay there for months, and not do everything there is to do!!
My kids, Brandon,Jacob, Jordan, and Jeremi, they are my life, and I would not be on this earth without them. They mean the world to me!! They all have different personalities, they all make me laugh in different ways, they with my husband and God, complete my life!
My parents, though as a teenager, I put them through hell and back, without them, I never would have made it to where I am today! Getting to be my moms best friend today is the best feeling in the world. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't talk to her on the phone everyday! he is my bestie in life!!She is always there, no matter what is going on in my life. I have loved getting to know my father better,and getting to see him grow in Christ is just amazing to me, its like watching a baby go from milk to meat, its just so precious. I pray that he stays with what he does, and one day gets the promotion he so richly wants, and deserves.
I myself am the kinda shy,quiet type, until somewhat recently. I have gotten some kind of boldness that has risen up inside me from somewhere, I am just so tired of being people's doormats. I am tired of people not taking me seriously! I get so tired of not being heard! I now feel like I wanna grab peoples cheeks,give them a squeeze and say listen!!!!!
I love my life..and wouldn't trade it in for nothing, no money in the world ,no bigger house,better car, or different location would make me any happier well,except if you were buying me a house in chapions gate or letting my live in Cinderella's castle that is:O)
SO, I look forward to writing when I can...when my ebay orders are finished, and kids have gone to bed...or whenever something rises up in me!!:O)
