I have to laugh off the past two months because it has been CHAOS, and not a calm chaos! Although it has had more good than bad events, you'd have to be crazy to overlook the "bad." About 7 weeks ago, I suffered a major concussion. You have to laugh at the story behind it …. here I am thinking and feeling like a badass, supermom, who is still at my prime collegiate athletic abilities and I start hauling ass after my son Bryce at the playground. I scaled up a measly 3 foot rock wall only to completely miss seeing the bar right above my head. OUCH! Yes, I completely blacked out and it was embarrassing to say the least. An emergency room was in my future the next day for a CAT scan to make sure I didn't have any bleeding on my brain!! You can't make this up. I learned a few lessons:
1. I'm almost 40 😂😂 and shouldn't try to live out my childhood days. Leave the past in the past.
2. Recovery stinks the older you get. It's been almost 2 months and I am still having to see the neurologist because I'm dizzy and nauseous.
3. I taught my kids very quickly how to call daddy and 911 in case of emergency
Moving along to present day PNEUMONIA. Yep, the allergy season hit Houston so hard. My body just couldn't fight it. Here I am on an antibiotic on top of concussion recovery.
Amidst all of this, I have still managed to have a packed and enjoyable schedule. A trip to College Station with the kiddos for some Aggie Baseball and to visit my girls Aspyn and Avyn, a work trip to Mexico to review resorts for wedding locations, kicked butt in our saltwater fishing tournament down in Rockport, etc. Just check out the pictures, they paint a thousand MORE words.
While I'm at it, I have to say that I have mastered the art of embarrassing my children in such an awesome way!! Yep, I am going to be THAT parent. That parent who screams my kids name across the gym to get him to see me like a Metallica fan from the 1980's ❤. Yah, that was the shameless thing I did at my sons kindergarten graduation yesterday. "I want my kids to know!" I kept thinking. I am my children's number one fan. I want them to know always how incredible they are, how hard working they are, that they are loved, and supported, and beautiful inside and out, that they have great ideas, they make me happy, they are worth it, and they are enough in His eyes and mine. I want them to know that I am honored to be inspired by them. I'll be cheering for them and rooting them on until the day I die, at the top of my lungs, shamelessly every second of their lives. Just check out Wrig's cheezy smile …
Enough rambling. It's late and I need to rest my brain, literally 😂 Peace out and click HERE for more pics!
