My Little Big Man.

With my first 4 children, I kind of become a pro at teaching them to sit up, crawl, walk, dress and  
undress...etc. But when we had our 5th child that has dwarfism, we had to start all over. I tried to

 make things easy for him. I couldn't stand watching him struggle to try to sit up, crawl, walk and

 now trying to get dressed and undressed. He tries to get undressed and he cries out of

 frustration. But when I try to help him he say's "No mommy, I got it"  Breaks my heart and

 makes me proud at the same time. No matter how upset he gets, he never gives up. "Never

say can't, Never give up" My son has taught me that. When I thought he couldn't, he has shown

me he could.  my Little Big Man.

Losing a family member.

This is going to be a short post. My brain is not fully working right now.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   2 years ago I loss my aunt to breast cancer, 5 days a go I loss my grandmother to cancer. I I have some wonderful memories of my grandmother (I called her granny). She love to cook and back for everyone, and I loved being in the kitchen with her. I get my love of cooking from my 2 grannies, and I love them for that. But they both have passed away now and the cooking is left up to me.  

I really didn't know how to tell my children that their great grandma has passed. I didn't know how to tell them with, out me breaking down and crying like a baby. All I could say was "your great grandma was really sick and is in a better place". I am blessed that my children got to have wonderful memories of both their great grandma's. I was blessed to have 2 wonderful grannies, that taught me a lot about raising a family.
