I love madonna & can truly say i have watched her grow & evolve from her very beginning.
And now, many many years later from the days of Papa Don't Preach & Vogue, we are both mother's, one extremely in shape & extremely rich and one who is extremely middle class & an extreme cookie addict( which is a kinder way of saying not in shape, i am learning to not be so harsh on this body of mine because it gave me my children:)....so back to what i was blogging, it comes down to this.... when madonna & i, both close our eyes at night, we go to sleep extremely blessed....
i learned about the kabbalah little bit from madonna and learned how she wears a red string on her left wrist to rid jealousy & the evil eye from mean people, i needed that red string back in high school.
i think i will put my red string back on right next to my hungry for life bracelet, everyday....tick tock tick tock tick tock........

Poor Baby Shirlie...

There is always laundry in the background because I'd much rather be snapping the pictures then folding laundry anyday.

the artist...watch how the masterpiece was created from that beautiful little mind

on the upper left hand side of this masterpiece are, in Max's exact words "special colorful rocks" and if you take a look at the right hand side center you will see a pretty sweet "bright orange canoe" and back to the left hand side, smack in the center is "a big special heart that means i love you"....this is will be framed and displayed for all who visit us to see "the masterpiece" beautifully created by Maxwell Toledo ~ 4 years old. I love you, Max!!!! U ROCK!

Baby Shirlie

Bella loves her dolly and her name is "baby Shirlie", why Shirlie, we don't know, it just kind of stuck and she takes very good care of baby Shirlie. A nurturing heart comes so instinctive for little girls.

it's been a long time

i just signed in and i can't believe last log in/post was in december!
now it's almost 70 degrees out and what a spring day should be like,
just loaded the dishwasher, Bella is watching Leap Frog Storytime on Dvd,
the boys are playing in the yard with their big daddy.
life is good.
i make sure to count my blessings every single day.
now i would like a reese's peanut butter cup sunday from friendly's for desert, yet i can't stand the way my love handles be hanging over these darn jeans, that i have to keep pulling up to hide them...how can my brain not enjoy this shape i am in yet still crave that sundae and allow myself to eat it! i am going to kiss the last 15 to 20 pounds up to God and just enjoy life and that ice cream sundae. life's too short & i'm kind of short so i am going to just enjoy every little bit of shortness, that's what we have to do....love 2 u
