Failure

There are days when you feel as if all is lost. I've been feeling that way for days and to be honest I am fed up with it. I actually begged our Lord for mercy. To take this pain and depression away, the heavy heart I constantly carry. I want to be a better mother to Gabriel and being depressed doesn't solve anything. A few minutes later, my chest felt much lighter and I felt stronger as well. He works in mysterious ways for us all. And these past few years, I've been questioning my faith to him. Its a long road to go down but I'm up for it. Take it day by day.

Story spinner, best friend in the world

As she approached my friends in me, I looked her over. She was the kind of girl that my aunt would call a "Freckle -face cartoon". She had strawberry blond hair, blue eyes, freckles everywhere, and about my height, which I tell you, isn't tall at all. This was years ago when I first meet Annie. My 7 year old self at my old house with "The group" or so we called ourselves. Annie had just moved here from Atlanta, GA.

Anyway the girls did not like her. They said she was different, which I really didn't get. They made fun of her because she liked to be barefoot. Well so did I but they never said anything about me. I liked her the first day I met her and knew we were going to be best friends.
We were inseperable. Secret handshakes, slumber parties, playing dolls and dress-up, climbing trees, trying to sell lemonade to raise money to buy dog food for a stray puppy we found. We even had our own secret language. No one understood it and that made it better. My big sister said it sounded like gibberish and that we were dumb.

We always caused trouble though. Something always went wrong. There was even this one time where we were playing soccer in her house and we dropped the mini chandelier in her dining room. She kicked it extra hard in the wrong direction and the ball went soaring over our heads smashing into the light and it came crashing down onto the dining room table. Now that was uncalled for. She was awesome.

swine flu

to be honest, the swine flu pandemic scares me. last year when staph was going around, i got it! when a stomach bug or flu is going around, i always get it. so lately i've been trying to be really careful. washing my hands, using hand sanitizer, especially with Gabriel being home. Its horrible that something you can't see can harm you.

Teacher

Mrs. Connie Inman- I can't make out a single situation that's happened in my head, it seriously feels as if i've lost my memory. I do remember her being my favorite teacher in 6th grade though. She was always so nice and warm to me, and I was going through alot that year. I had her for Language Arts & Reading so that was fun. She knew I loved fish and the ocean so one day she gave me a bracelet that had fish on it. Everyday I looked forward to going to her class. My cousins Rianna & Soly had her their 6th grade year and she treated them like she treated me. To Mrs. Inman =)

Senior Year

Senior days, senior night
How I dreaded those daily plights

Pregnant and whiny
Yet so tiny
I felt like screaming out loud


Months pass by
The baby is no lie

My stomach is really huge


Then comes February,

A forever-long memory

My son is actually here


He’s 12 weeks early,
And I’m in a hurry,
To recover and to be with him.


Missing out my senior year

Though enjoying my baby’s first tear


I’ll miss you guys and always will
Can’t think of anything that rhymes with that
Oh and to add, Gabriel is getting fat =D
