I know I keep making promises to come back to blog land but now I am back for good, I promise!</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> It's another beautiful, snowy day in Wyoming I'm loving this amazing weather and time with my wonderful children.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> Sipping hot caramel coffee, soft music playing, children quietly playing their Nooks, with the amazing smell of homemade potato soup simmering on the stove, life couldn't get any better, I am finally happy with where my life is. I honestly can say I love being a single parent, I wish the things that lead up to me being a single parent hadn't happened for my children's sake but through it all we have become stronger, more bonded, closer then ever and for that I am very thankful.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> So much has changed the past few years but things change over the years, some for the good, some for the worse but inevitably things are bound to change.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> Daisy went thru this really tomboy spell the past year or so where she refused to wear any girl clothes at all, I figured it was a spell and so I just let her wear what she wanted , let her pick her new clothes when she needed new clothes and found out that if they just sold more girl stuff in Ninja Turtles and superheroes then she probably would have never went that route lol but I figured out I can buy them in the boy's section a size up and adapt them to a girl's cut and style and she is totally happy, so I have a stack of shirts sitting here waiting to be adapted.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> In so many ways its been a long winter already and in other ways its flown by but it is hard to believe we are on the upside to counting down for Christmas again. As a child I remember time just couldn't go by fast enough between birthdays and Christmases but now time just needs to slow down a little I feel like my children are growing so fast that soon I won't be such a big part of their lives as they will grow more independent and begin to think more on their own and become more opinionated (if that's possible lol)</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> I have a new hobby I am interested in and am in the process of getting the supplies to begin making reborn babies to sell but mostly for friends and family. So about a month or so ago I bought my first baby for myself she is Phil Donnelly's Enya prototype reborned by Silvia Creations. She is absolutely gorgeous, it has taken many years for me to actually step out and make a purchase like this because it is not cheap or an easily made decision, however as costly as she was I do not regret purchasing her at all, if this is going to be something I decide to do I want to have one baby by one of the top artists in the world. Of course this is something I have been buying for the girls for the past year and over a year they have each acquired three, so now they have quite a little nursery of babies going on, I really need to learn to root the hair so I can fix their babies and do the hair properly and seal it like it should have been all along. Some artists are only in it for the money and do not care about the quality of their work, I want to build a good name for myself not be known to bust out five babies a week that are poor quality.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> Now for a few pictures of the baby doll I bought and renamed Natawnee. She is stunning, and as you will see she looks a lot like Daisy did when Daisy was little, I think that's what made it such an easy decision for me to purchase her, now eventually I would like to find one that looks like Lilly did when she was little :) Hope you enjoy the pics :)</span></strong><br />

<span style="color: #4c1130;"> <strong><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I think I am finally at a point in my life where I actually can get back to my daily blogging ,not quite so busy in some ways and much busier in other ways :)</span></strong></span><br />
<strong><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Verdana;"> Daisy is 6 1/2, she will be 7 in July, I can hardly believe how fast time flies and how quickly children grow! Seems like just yesterday I was on bed rest fighting to save her life when it all reality it was a full 7 years ago! Daisy still does struggle with a few things from her premature birth and I am getting ready to take her to Denver Children's hospital for an evaluation as some of her progress in learning seems a little delayed and she seems to be regressing in some areas, but I'm very thankful for the opportunity I have to homeschool Daisy, it has been an amazing bonding experience for us and has brought us even closer together.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Verdana;"> Lilly just turned 5 in January, she is attending a specialized school that works exclusively with children with special needs, she has made great strides in so many ways and I'm beginning to question her diagnosis of Autism, I am wondering if it is more Asperger's or ASD, only time will tell I suppose and for now I'm happy with the progress she is making, not to mention she loves school, just seems she is sick every week from never having spent much time around a lot of other kids during the sick seasons lol but I think she is finally getting well again and ready to return. She only goes 4 afternoons a week for 2 hr 45 minutes where she does all kinds of learning activities along with getting her therapies, it is a wonderful school.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Verdana;"> I lost my camera and it seems to be forever gone, with all my pictures dating all the way back to Dec of 2011, I'm super sad and worried I will never get my pictures back, I'm glad I have backup copies on my computer but I miss it! I'm really contemplating buying a new one but definitely want to do my research before I get one, I want to get a nice one that takes good quality pictures, going to read some reviews and make my decision this week.</span></strong><br />

My blog was always a security to me and although I have been busy I have truly missed you all and hope to get back into daily blogging.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> So, the beginning of the school year Daisy started at the public school just down the street from us and it ended terribly so once again we decided homeschooling is the way to go. We have her enrolled in an online virtual academy and it is going well, she loves it and we have been able to incorporate al of her special love of Panda Bears into her schooling and it has been a lot of fun. I can hardly believe how fast she is growing, she will be 7 in July! Seems like yesterday she was just a tiny baby fighting to live.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> Lilly is turning 5 on the 31st of this month, she is attending a specialized school 4 afternoons a week for children with special needs and it is going well! School has become her place to shine, she loves all the arts and craft projects and knows all of her letters and numbers and can read short words, Her teachers are super impressed with all she knows. I'm excited to see what the next years holds in store for her :)</span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> It has been a harsh winter in terms of illnesses but I'm quite sure that is due to the exposure to the of the public school system and they're starting to build up an immune system to all the nasty things they have been shielded from in the past. As I type Lilly is fast asleep on the floor while Daisy sits beside her watching Shrek, She has been sick off and on for the past few weeks and missed a number of days staying home sick, I hope she can rest well and feel better before Monday.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> I have a lot to do this weekend (as usual) and the cleaning and laundry seem to be never ending. </span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> I'm so happy to be back, I missed you all greatly and hope you're having a fantastic Saturday!</span></strong><br />

Alot has happened in the past year and I am happy to say we have come through it none the worse forwear. </span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Off and on thru the past year I have been pretty sick with my seizures and migraines, I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out what is wrong and how to get well. In the past year I have been taken to the ER multiple times for my seizures and now I see a neurologist every three months and am on medications to control the seizures and have been doing better.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana;"> I haven't been able to do much sewing or anything I have been pretty busy painting and redoing the kitchen, taking kids to and from school and trying to stay caught up on housework.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana;"> I have a million things rolling thru my head everyday anymore and its hard not being physically capable of doing all I wish I could, but im learning my limits and learning to be happy where I am and with the things I can do.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana;"> Im fighting a huge spiritual warfare in my soul, I cant really go into the details right now but I ask that you pray for me for deliverance, for freedom and for help in knowing what the right path to take is. Im so confused, so lost and feel so alone right now that I don't know where to go, where to turn, or who to talk to. I need spiritual guidance, I want to start going to church to find a church home where we feel welcome and fit in, somewhere my girls can find true friends and be happy.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana;"> I have a lot of cleaning and organizing to do today, I hope to be able to finish up the kitchen and sew the new tablecloth and curtains to match the new soft yellow paint I just painted the kitchen with, it has really lightened it up a lot and makes it so much brighter, happier looking and I love it.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana;"> The girls are getting so big and I'm so proud of them and all they have come thru so well, Lilly turns 5 in January and Daisy is 6 1/2 so time has flown by so much quicker then I ever thought possible! Lilly absolutely hates having her picture taken so its super hard to get any good pics of her lately, its frustrating because she is so cute and photogenic but has a major phobia of the camera!</span></strong><br />

<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> As everyone on here knows I'm openly gay (I came out in Dec 2011)In May I was jumped and put in the hospital by my ex.My landlord found out I was gay and wrote me a lease violation for it.Then again she wrote me another lease violation (for being gay) for bogus things such as having to call the police to my home when my ex tried to kick the door in a few weeks ago.Well,yesterday she wrote me an eviction notice,so I am losing my housing,I have nowhere to go,nowhere to take my girls,not sure what we are going to do,however I'm trying to look up and still see the bright side of things,the bring side? Not sure what it is but I'm sure there is one somewhere,maybe its to make me become even more self reliant?maybe its to draw me n my girls even closer?</span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> I have a hearing with the housing officer on Friday,I am not holding my breath,hoping for the best but expecting the worst...It is with tears I ask you to please pray for us that something will work out for me n my girls.Please pray for our rainbow in the storm...</span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana;"> Im not asking for this...</span><br />

Nine long hard years have passed since you were murdered,and the memory my darling little girl is still just as real now as it was the day you died.<br />
I remember too well the day I received the news that you had been hurt badly and were not going to make it, and that you were being removed from life support at 2pm the next day,I remember the horror that filled my heart and mind,going into a state of shock,becoming hysterical,not being able to get to you before you passed away 20 minutes later,this was a joyous time for you,sweet innocent girl,but baby it was hell for me, I wish I could have died to keep you safe or done more to protect you,I was fighting with DFS to bring you home as my daughter from the moment you went into foster care,I called all the social workers,moving up the chain of command,but hit roadblocks everywhere I went,but ironically after you passed away,the social worker called me and said everything had been cleared and asked me to adopt your baby sister.I couldn't even do it,I felt too awful about everything that had happened to you.I dont think I responded to that situation properly, but nothing would have ever felt right without you in my home also.<br />
I remember walking into the funeral home,hearing Butterfly kisses playing softly over the sound system as I walked into the room where your body lay so cold in that tiny casket.You looked so peaceful in your new dress and new little black shoes,and the locket on your neck that lit up so sweetly.I remember seeing your little face swollen nearly beyond recognition and seeing the marks n bruises down your arms and across your little body for the first time.I remember the horror creeping thru my soul at how much you truly endured before you passed away.I remember being beside myself with grief and running from the funeral home to deal with your death alone as I wandered the streets trying to clear my mind<br />
Your funeral was torturous I desperately wanted it to be a nightmare,hoping I would wake up any moment,but looking at the burns and bruises covering your little body I knew this nightmare was reality and I also knew I had failed you terribly,I'm so sorry I could not save you from the evils of these pathetic people,honestly baby I have fought many personal demons over your death.I remember a blinding pain taking over my whole life & wanting to kill the foster mother who so tragically and cruelly purposely took your life from you and took you from us much too soon.I remember the last time I saw you alive,it was hell for me,how I wanted to take you into my arms and run as fast and far away from those evil,wicked people,the people who ultimately ended your life a short time later.<br />
They say time heals all pain,but apparently they don't know what they are talking about because time does not heal the pain,however it does make it a little easier to live with.Your grave is my thinking place,I go there alone to reflect on life,I go there to think of you and to take you little tokens of my love.<br />
Now I picture you singing and dancing with the angels and sitting with Jesus living a glorious pain free life full of the excitements of heaven and when I picture this I'm almost glad you were spared having to live with the abuse and horrors of your past.I realize now that no matter how awful or tragic your death was,your life still was full of meaning and purpose.You are my inspiration Nichole, I look at my beautiful girls and think of you and realize that tomorrow they could be dancing with you,I don't want to regret anything else they way I regret the way you died and not being able to help you more,but i want to thank you for helping to teach me the meaning of life.My own daughter is now the exact age you were when you were murdered,when I look into her sparkling brown eyes I am often reminded of you and how I was given a second chance to make right where I went wrong years ago.<br />
Gone but not forgotten,you will always live on in mine and my girls lives. <br />
RIP Nikki,I love you baby girl xoxo <div class="blogger-post-footer">54489-151-C33D462A2644CD04D2040B989BAB69BF</div>sjkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264570538393655849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7278343690369539331.post-36648426616756549142012-08-30T22:06:00.002-07:002012-08-30T22:06:17.651-07:00Homeschooling<strong><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Its about 11 pm and all is quiet here,the girls are sleeping peacefully,Im listening to music thinking its near my bedtime so I can get up early and get a good start on Daisys school work.We are homeschooling this year so its all a little new to us but we are enjoying it ever so much,just gotta get into a routine...</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana;"> We are doing an online program through the public school system and once I get it all figured out it will be wonderful,right now we are still waiting for her books and stuff so its a slow beginning lol yes I was a little late in registering her however Im glad I found this program and they have been so sweet working with us.She has a credited teacher who calls and talks to us a few times a month and is available for questions nearly anytime.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana;"> I can hardly believe my sweet lil girl is old enough to be starting kindergarten!Theyre getting sooo big!</span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> You have been greatly missed!I'm so happy to be back into the blogging world!Although I must say the break was wonderful.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> It has been a crazy summer and school for us starts on Monday morning!This is our first year of homeschooling,Daisy is in Kindergarten and Lilly preschool,we are sooo excited for this next step in our lives :)</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> The girls have gotten so big,Daisy just turned 5 and Lilly is 3 1/2.they are so much fun and I adore them!</span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;">So much has happened since I was last on here that I hardly even know where to begin!I love being single and having the freedom to enjoy life,and no I'm not out there being crazy and wild :)</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> I have been trying to come up with little ways to make money to ensure the bills are being paid on time,selling a few sewing items,yard sale,etc.God has been good to us and I am extremely thankful for all He has done for us.There is always food on the table and bills always get paid,eventually lol</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> I have been going thru stuff again,donating and getting rid of stuff preparing once again to move.Somewhere smaller n more affordable,not exactly something I'm looking forward to but something that must happen.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> Well,its time for me to run and finish cleaning the house so I can set up the girls school area tonight when they go to bed :)</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> ((((hugs to all))))</span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> I have had a lot going on and have been keeping busy. Every day I'm fighting to do my very best and become an even better parent to my little girls, life is short and passing us by very quickly.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> Being a single parent is great and has definitely been an enlightening experience and I'm glad for the things I have learned, I'm glad I ended the relationship I was in with Lilly's dad, we have all adjusted very well and things are so much better.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> The girls are doing well and getting so big, seems like so many areas of my life need updated and so little time to do it.....</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana;"> Hope you all are well (((hugs)))</span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> So,the death of little Alex was ruled a suicide.Seriously look at this little boy and tell me what could have been so bad in his life to kill himself over? He had a loving family that adored him a safe comforting home.He was a happy kid who was never mean to anyone,he adored Mickey Mouse,trains of all kinds and the color yellow,so looking in from the outside it looks he had the perfect life.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Verdana;"> But,wait it wasn't perfect,he ended his own life on New Years near the train tracks he adored so much because He did not want to return to school after the holidays.He could not face the bully's he had been tormented by before.So he chose to end his own life,how sad and tragic,this breaks my heart.Honestly this strikes more fear in my heart that if some sick psycho pervert were out there murdering children.Why? Because suicide is a silent killer becoming more and more popular among children and young teens,they see no way out of their temporary problem and choose the permanent solution of suicide.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Verdana;"> Approximately 30,000 people commit suicide every year in the United States alone.The youngest person to commit suicide in the United states was a 6 yr old Oregon girl after she was sent to her room,she hung herself with a belt in 2010.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Verdana;"> Please parents talk to your children,be open and honest with them,do whatever it takes for you to protect them.Hold them close and love them dearly with every breath you have,today could be the last chance you have to tell them how much you love them! </span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana;"> My grandmother was so very loving and caring,she was a fun woman and a good mother and Grandmother.The day she passed away I received a card from her in the mail a few hours after receiving word of her death.I cried for hours,in her last card,she told us how much she loved me and the girls and that no matter what to trust in God because He will always be there for us.How true this is,she served him til the day she died,everyone was loved by Grandma,everyone was family and we will miss her forever.</span></strong><br />
