Kaitlyn & I drove to San Antonio to meet my brother for lunch.......needless to say, I have not a clue about anything in San Antonio, except the Riverwalk and what is on it. So as we are about to walk out the door, my brother from Charlotte, North Carolina tells me..."you know that there's some sort of huge festival going on and it's going to be really hard to find a place on the Riverwalk to eat....(you know in that man's voice--you know what I'm talking about).....well, I hadn't the slightest............so, we planned on driving to SA and figure it out from there.
I really thought about this...I thought, this is not that big of a deal...we've had crowds before so, I called Rainforest Cafe' to see if we can make a reservation. YEAH, RIGHT! 2 1/2 wait. I know Russ has been to SA before BUT, he has not eaten at the Rainforest Cafe' (at least not with me & Kaitlyn) and Kaitlyn loves it there.........I contemplated, I contemplated, and after 45 min. of driving to meet my brother for lunch.......I know my brother Russ, he would have killed me!
Sometimes I realize I am stressed out.....and sometimes, I realize somehow I take it out on the one's I love the most. So call today a stress free day.............
I am happy that I can look forward to seeing my mom & dad
I am happy I get to read the Bible to my child every night before she goes to sleep (thank you mom)
I am happy that my brother that lives in South Carolina is in San Antonio until next Saturday, so I get to see him, hopefully
I am happy that my mom is my best friend in this whole entire world
I am happy that my youngest brother is building a fish pond in his front yard, that he thinks is awesome - because my great aunt had one and I thought it was the most amazing thing ever and I still remember her with Russ & I out there
I am so happy that my Dad is the coolest person I know and I miss him every day but, I know he is just around the corner
I am happy that my very best friends are not needy
I am happy that I still get to look forward to a future at the age of 35
I am happy that my grandparents would be proud of me
and most of all...........I am so happy that I am a "flower mom"......that is what Kaitlyn told me today. I hope that means I am doing a good job!
