Everything is GREAT!!!

This blog is starting to look like every journal entry I have in my diary. They all start with, "I know it has been a long time, but....."
So here it goes. I know it has been a long time, but here is what has been going on in my life since I last wrote. A lot has changed. Luckily all of the new changes have been for the better. I have a new man in my life. I was really resistant at first, but over time(about a year) we became really good friends and then all of a sudden, here we are. It is great! He is great! His kids are great! Alexa is doing great! I couldn't ask for more.

Alexa turned 5 last month. I can't believe how big she is getting. Time is just flying by. I wish I could slow time down (although I am pretty excited for the fuure, so that might not be good to slow it down!). I want to enjoy every minute with her. She is just so funny and now she is getting older and so smart and even funnier. Here are some of her recent comments that had me cracking up.

-We were driving in the car and she was sick so she was half asleep and out of it, but I looked back in the rear view mirror and see her little head bobbing to the music with her eyes closed. Then she says, "Mom, I feel like this music is just a part of me. If it wasn't a boy singing, I would thing that I was doing the song." She does love music. She loves to dance and to sing and to make up her own songs.

-Her and I were watching tv the other day. We only get a couple chanels so for some reason we get the proactive commercial a lot. Alexa looked at me and says, "Hey mom, that's the stuff you have, but it doesn't work as good on you. It's ok, I still think you are pretty." Thanks kid. Luckily I know she really does think I am pretty, so I wont take it to harsh.

-Her other recent accomplishment was learning to blow a bubble. We spent all sunday morning last week learning how to blow bubbles with the pack of bubble gum someone gave her for her birthday. She is a fast learner.
