Minecraft and My 5 Year Old
I've been playing video games since I was young. I first picked up a controller at the age of 8 or 9, playing Mario 64 obsessively, but even before that I remember being in daycare and seeing someone play Pokemon for the very first time. I was fascinated; I was hooked. I had to have my own.

Will I Win?
What am I doing wrong? Why have I been so nice? Why did I let my heart think for me? I was with this man for 5 years and I can tell you I stopped being happy in 6 months of our relationship. Why I didn’t leave him ? Well because I had no one to go back to. Why? Because he took everyone I had around me and pushed them away. My mother, my father, my siblings, and my friends. I also stood with him to give us a chance for our baby girl. But it wasn’t enough for him. He would purposely miss work to go hang out will friends. And after I had my baby I barely had his support because he was listening to his mom about not helping me because he works. So when my daughter hit 6 months I started to work. But when I would get off he would leave our baby girl home by her self in her bed and no his mom wasn’t there either. She was crying and I had told him it’s not kewl doing that. That’s being a bad parent. Then to find out I was pregnant yet again. Yes I am an idiot but I won’t ever regret all my kids. But the sexual situation is for another story later.

My Very First Baby
Hey Moms Or Should I Say Mothers... I Got Something To Say! Where Do I Start... Oh Yea The Pregnancy. During My Pregnancy It Wasn’t Hard At All As A Matter Of Fact The Labor Wasn’t Either. Now I Don’t Want To Brag But My Labor Went Fast 2 Hours Fast. I Know Some Mothers Were In Labor Longer Than That But I Know For A Fact Throughout All Of That Excruciating Pain At The End You Saw A Beautiful Baby Boy/Girl And You Knew From That Point On Nothing Was Going To Stand In Your Way From Loving Him/Her. That’s The Same Way I Felt And Still Do About My Son(The Baby In The Photo With Stars). His Name Is Audy Jr Even Though The Line Doesn’t Stop With His Father. But, To Cut The Cuteness And Cooing Off I Know For A Fact You Have Lost Some Sleep When Your Newborn Baby Came Home. How Do I Know You Ask? The Same Thing Is Happening To Me Now As I Speak.In Hospital It’s All Sweet But As Soon As Your Baby Come Home It All Goes Downhill From There. Your Full Hours Of Sleep Turn Into Half Of That And For The Mothers That Have To Wake Up Around 4AM I Feel So Sorry For You Unless You Have A Man Or Husband Around Then It’s A Different Ball Game.

Toddler Life
I truly love my kids, but there are moments I look at them and think I miss being a kid. Think about it they get to play most of the day, while learning, eat, use bathroom in some way, and sleep. Yet take a second to look at life through their eyes. My middle child will cry bloody murder if his rubble Paw Patrol doll is missing. To an adult this is silly, but to a kid this doll has been on some adventures, been found countless times, and been in battle.

My little boy
Bringing a life into the world is beautiful. When becoming a parent everyone tells you to treasure the moments dearly. I never understood why until I became a mother myself. Growing up yourself, it feels like being a child is forever. When you’re 5, you claim you can't wait until you’re 10. When you’re 12, you can't wait to be 16. Once you’re 16, you can't wait until you’re 18 and then 21. Once you hit the 21 year old mark you realize you don’t want to grow up, you don’t want to get older, you want to stay young and go back to when you didn’t have the responsibilities that you now have.

The Corrupt Constant
It was the age of dirty feet and mosquito-bitten backs. The age of learning to swim in the frigid Puget Sound and climbing the trees to our different worlds. My brother and I had spent every summer of our young lives at our Grandparents’ home in Bremerton, Washington. No matter where our navy brat lives took us, we always found ourselves back on that property on the waterfront.
