Some things you should know about me...
I like to use this ... A LOT.
I love all things purple.
I am addicted to ice, like I eat 44oz cups of it daily. (seriously)
I wear blue mascara and I Rock.It.Out.
I love my family.
My kids are my life and off limits .. mess with them and well, dont do it and you wont have to worry !
My goal each day is that as I go to sleep at night I can look back and say "Yes, I did the best I could."
If said goal does not happen then I FORGIVE my self and commit to start a new in the morning.
I have THE best husband in the world, not even kidding.
I have THE best Mom this world has ever known, again totally serious.
I have wanted to start a blog for months now, but it utterly intimidates me.
I am afraid no one will follow said blog or like it. (pitiful but honest)
I like the TV series The Walking Dead... There I said it, dont judge me ! lol
One of my favorite songs is "Now We Are Free" by Lisa Gerrard and I could listen to it all day ever day, and I have, just ask Randy.
I love all genres of movies but REALLY enjoy ones like Gladiator, Braveheart, Troy, Alexander, and Kingdom of Heaven. Not because of the violence and war, but for the love stories in them and because I admire those that went before us and fought for something they believed in...
I believe that 'to have a friend you must BE a friend' and I'm still working on this.
I think one of the number one things we parents need to instill in our children is to simply do the best they can, always.
I believe if we set the bar high for our children that they WILL deliver, all we have to do is believe in them.
I love it when my daughter says "Lets Do This Thing" I admire her and want to be like her when I grow up.
My Kyle is my Son-Shine, he makes me smile.
My Camden is an Old Soul and he makes me happy.
Randy is our rock.
We may not agree on everything but our number one goal is Making Memories for and with our children. Though we can not spoil them with 'things' I think we do a pretty good job finding ways to show them we love them.
I love black and white photos, especially of buildings and random things.
I take too many pictures.
I strive to find the positive in EVERY situation.
I dont laugh enough, but I'm working on this.
I believe in CHOICES... like, its a CHOICE to be happy.
I believe in second chances, and sometimes a third and a fourth...
I LOVE the sound of my children laughing.
I am NOT perfect, and Do.Not.Want.To.Be.
I am... Courtney Michelle's Mom
I am... Kyle Randal's Mom
I am... Camden Chadwick James' Mom
I am... A wife, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, cousin, friend... and somewhere in all of that I am ME, just like YOU, doing the best I can to make this one life I was given count for something.
Please, walk with me on this journey...
Mama Tiff, You Are A Dork!!! XD <3

DeleteComment from Randy:
ReplyDeleteTiff,I am so proud of you for doing this. You're off to a great start,and I'm looking forward to reading more from you. I definitely remember when we decided together before we ever had our children that when the time came, we wanted to make good memories for them, and we knew it would include grandparents playing a big role. I appreciate our life together more each day and I like the direction we are heading. So, keep it going and inspire all of us each day!
