I visited my newest baby cousin this past weekend. She is beautiful and peaceful. Her grandmother (her mom’s mother) holds her most of the time. I’m grateful that my cousin’s husband has taken to our family. They are all staying at my big mom’s house because both of their homes have stairs.
It’s almost like it was when bigmom was here, everyone stopping by the house to visit, the door never being locked. The baby just sleeps through all the commotion.
When my cousin was preggers, some of the cousins named her baby “big mom’s baby.” When big mom was passing she kept saying ‘take care of the baby.’ My cousin that passed after delivery was in big mom’s room and at that time didn’t know she was pregnant. She conceived on my big mom’s b-day and found out after her funeral.
It’s amazing because big mom’s baby is now living in bigmom’s house.

Irreplaceable, I like this song but upon consideration of its lyrics (I know one should not consider the lyrics of pop and most r&b songs), I must conclude silly. She’s housing this man, paying for his car, clothing him and I hazzard to guess also feeding and sexing him. Of course she can have another him in a minute, of course another him is on the way and ready to assume the life.
I was in church once and the minister discussed how a man will cheat on and eventually leave the woman who requires nothing of him. He will find a woman who he does everything for, and he’ll stick with her because he values what he has invested in.

I heard an Akon song that whines about people not wanting him and his woman together.
Is that foolishness or what? Someone on the radio dedicated that song to someone else, with a silly message to forget what others are saying. Are people still deluding themselves into thinking their friends and family are against them and their decision to be together ‘cause maybe they are jealous or don’t want to see them happy?

I’m sometimes amazed by how alike my maternal and paternal families are.
My parents may have gotten divorced but they certainly married a mate with extremely similiar upbringings and background. I’m just amazed, amazed, amazed. My two grandmothers were good friends. The similarities of the families made it easy raising kids.

I’m at the library with hubster’s goddaughter (8) and her brother (6). They are good kids and super cute, but I’m probably still a bit too selfish for parenthood. I’m getting better though. Maybe you can grow into it, if you start off with a baby. I’m certain our babies will time their appearance. They are probaly like me and require comfort. I don’t know the new parent trials my mom went through of if she went through any, I was the last child and by the time I arrived everything was smooth and well structured.
Hubster had a 10 a.m. dr. appt. and the plan was to take the kids to the library while he was at the dr. and we all hit the Tarpits afterward. I got hubster up at 9. He asked why I let them sleep so late, since we had to get the kids ready. The time it takes to get children ready didn’t occur to me.
Yesterday, the little girl and I made ourselves invisible. She suggested we hide from hubster, but I wasn’t into all that, so I spun a special shield that made us invisible and informed hubster that he couldn’t see us. He played along and said “I’m walking by myself, I don’t know where they went.” Then the little girl saw a cute green jacket (I think she realizes that if its green, I will take it) in the window. We walked over to it and I asked hubster is we could get it for her.
We went in the store, but sadly they didn’t have her size. 
Hubster then told us we couldn’t be invisible and then reappear when it was time for him to buy something. I love hubster. He’s fun. He is going to be a fantastic father, not because he likes to spoil folks, but his beautiful heart. I just want to be a fantastic mommy.
