My secrets - cont'd

I love wearing socks withOUT shoes.
I love to sit on the floor in the shower and just think! In fact, when I was pregnant I would actually bring books into the shower because I couldnt sleep!
I smoke. I wish I didnt and I'm praying to quit but for now, I smoke.
Sometimes when ice falls out of the freezer, I kick it under the fridge instead of putting it in the sink!
Cleaning house is a stress reliever for me.
I am an organized mess!
I will change my kids clothes 4 times in a row if I don't like what I just picked out for them!
I love the way strawberries smell but can't stand the taste.
I like the cheap brand of neopolitan ice cream but won't eat the expensive kind.
Despite my efforts, I am sometimes too judgmental.
For the first time in 28 years I am reading the bible and I love it.
When I was little I stole a necklace from my friends house and gave it to my mom for Christmas. (terrible I know). Obviously mom knew I did NOT buy a gold herringbone chain on my allowance so I had to apologize and return the necklace!
I recently learned just how terrible I was as a friend sometimes. I'm trying to be better.

Wow... It's been a while!

Cameron is 3 months old. He's laughing out loud, has a smile that can melt your heart, dimples to die for and the prettiest blue eyes... He's my baby boy and I had no idea he's capture my heart this way or that I'd even be able to love yet another child as much as I did the first two! How lucky am I?
Maddie is growing up so much. She was playing school this weekend and I overheard her telling the other teacher (grace) that one of her students parents were so hard to get in touch with that she even had to email them! Yes... you heard me right!
Grace, well she's still Grace. She's doing well in school, still making me laugh. Tonight at dinner she looked at me and said "Kristie, I have to tell you something..." Yes - she did in fact refer to me as Kristie. I looked at her with an obvious face of shock and told her that I was not Kristie, I was mom!!!! To which she replied "So that means I can't call your Kristie anymore?" What the heck?!
Marriage is bliss and it's funny because I really mean that. I couldn't ask for anything more and I couldnt be happier if I had mapped it out myself.
God is good and prayer is therapy for the soul...
