long winded....

do you ever have those days where you just realize how grateful you are for everything?
how much everybody contributes to your life one way or another? 
strangers, celebritys, heroes, your family and friends.
they are like the one of a kind mold to our individual personalities. 
my fellow baby mama friends:
you keep me strong, we are all in this together! being a young mom is life changing but its nice that we all have each others stories and support to keep us going through the tough times!
the random friends i have met along the way :
you keep me young! and in tune with the world around me!  

my cousin Anthony contributed to my interests:
Zelda, Skateboarding, Blink 182 and being apart of the alternative cliches.....

my sister Meagan made me :
realize i needed to change my ways, because i have little siblings looking up to me as there example. 
she helped change my life, i see now how important it is to be the older sister they can come too.

my sister Jessie shows me :
inspiration every day, she is always full of imaginative/ creative ideas.
she is always brings the artistic side out in me.

my mom gave me :
the tools of logic and responsibility.
priority's come first, bills get paid before you buy things for pleasure.
i may have a bad spending habit, but my mom has made me smart about my money.
i am happily in no debt, and all my bills get paid in advance.
all my chores get done before i enjoy myself.
i have a clean organized house, i take care of my yard. 
she also has taught me endurance, and to stay on top of things. 
she has taught me more then anyone,  she is the smartest little lady i know. 

my dad has always been :
the person i got along with the least....
and that is because we are so much alike. 
he has always had  a carefree side. 
a stand up for yourself when you need too side.
and a charitable, selfless side.
he has taught me that money has no real value, not the type of value that matters.
that is why i am happy to help out a family member, why i'd rather spend my money on another then on myself. why i try to always give a little, because there are people who need it more then me. 
but he has also taught me, too keep an open mind. 
think deeper and be more spiritual.

my grandma glenna has taught me :
to be free! 
not to care what others think. not to get grossed out
by anything that is only human. 
we all do them and we all have them.

my grandpa Gerald kept my :
hands and minds exploring.  
showing me how things work, how to build things.
my oldest fondest memory's with my grandpa have me under the hood of a car.
he also taught me how to enjoy a good old western :) 
my Palmer family :
have taught me the value of family.
your family is your family. 
no matter the differences you love each and every one and appreciate them for who they are. 
life is to short to let the little things get in the way of love for your family.
my long friend tiffany never lets me forget : 
every thing around us and everything we are is a form of art.
so make sure to create everything with as much beauty and originality as possible. 

my blakee :
he is the anchor to my wings.
and the sanity to my out of mind moments.
where i am energetic and out spoken, he is calm and reserved. 
he is the ying to my yang and the balance I've always needed. 
our child has a good chance to be normal with the two of us :)
i appreciate him for what we have created and all the support he has for me.

my little itty bitty baby tuna :
she is my life. she has showed me true happiness. true love and selflessness.
she is and will forever be apart of me.
my dear friend elisha trask :
you are who i look up too.
you are sort of a hero too me. 
you have been since the day i met you, and always will be. 
you are a special kindred spirit i hope never lose.

and mama sue shepherd :
is an inspiration to all.
when life gets tough, you keep your head up, and always ALWAYS have a good sense of humor.
even if it seems like the crumbiest thing life could have thrown at you, you find a silver lining to keep you going. she has taught me more lessons then she will ever know. but i am grateful for every one.

this may seem like a pointless post to everyone.
but this is for my own sake and for those i love. 
to show all the gratitude i have.

  1. This is not a pointless post at all! I love how humble you are! How do you know Elisha? She is my good friends sister in law:) I wish that I was more driven to do the dishes and clean house! Teach me? haha. My mom always kept a clean house, I wish it was something I picked up from her. I hate cleaning, but I like a clean house. Go figure! Have a good day.
