In the news...

There have been very interesting news stories out here. Some are very sad.
  • On Sunday, a lady was trying to go to church and her ex-husband (she already had a restraining order against him) shot her execution style as she made her way into the door.
  • Angel Raich, an Oakland resident, was denied the right to use medicinal marijuana to treat her pain from an inoperable brain tumor and other illnesses. The funny thing is seeing her on the news smoking weed...only in California.
  • There was a drive by shooting on March 5th and the intended targets were little children. A 4 year old girl died and her 4 year old cousin is in critical condition. The police believe it's gang related. A 3 year old boy was also grazed by a bullet. There's a $16,000 reward for details. Is that all those babies lives are worth???
  • Sen. Obama will hold a campaign rally in Oakland this Saturday. I would love to see him but...

Until later...

Motherhood

Yesterday, I had something to do so the kids went to their old sitter's house for a few hours. We got home later than intended so I knew I would be rushing to prepare dinner, get them bathed, and settled for the night. Here's what really happened. As soon as we entered the house, Brayden started running around saying "Mommy, I have to pee". So we rush into the bathroom and as soon as his pants are unbuttoned, he starts peeing on himself. I clean him up and decide they can play in the tub while I start preparing dinner. As soon as we get to the kitchen, Danica throws up all over me, herself, and the floor. So, I take her to our bathroom and bathe her. Before I can get her pj's buttoned up, Brayden starts screaming "I have to pee!" Because he just went all over the bathroom floor, I'm a little perplexed. I run to their bathroom anyway only to find out he didn't have to pee, he had to poop and had already dropped two bombs in the bathtub where his s...

In Memory...

Staff Sergeant Javares Washington was killed in Kuwait. He was my cousin. My cousin died yesterday...in Kuwait...and I'm so very sad. I feel like I can't breathe. My heart is broken. We grew up like siblings. His mom had him at a very young age. She wasn't ready to take care of him. So, he lived with us for years. He was like my brother. And now, I'm in shock. I'm going to miss him so much. The military has only said he was in a government vehicle on patrol and it flipped over. We don't know what caused the flip or anything. I want to go home. He was married and had two children. His son, Jayden, is 6 years old and looks just like him. His daughter, Tristin, is 9 months old. My heart is broken.

Love at First Sight

I am absolutely in love with this little girl. Danica was born with a heart murmur but we found out today it's no longer there. We are so happy with this little perfect being and can't wait to get to know her more.
