Exhaustion is setting in. My eyes are refusing to focus and my fingers are fudging letters, but here I sit - thinking it might be proper to give you a brief introduction to our family....how rude of me not to do that initially. And yes, considering it is only 8:30 at night, I absolutely refuse to admit that if I were to just lay my head down on my pillow it would only take a short moment to hit dream street.
I go by Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma in this house, but most people refer to me as Kristin. My daily gig involves helping people who are not currently able to help themselves, for many different reasons. It is challenging, heartbreaking, rewarding, endearing, and all the things in between. Most days, I wouldn't change what I do for the world, which makes me one of the lucky ones.
Just shy of five years ago I agreed to a first date with a hot band guy, who is now my husband. Most know him as Luke, but in this house, he too goes by Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma. We are hoping that will change soon. With the birth of our son, Luke decided to take a break from band life and now has the unfortunate blessing of working outside in the miserable winter elements, but he has the brightest spirit and finds the positive in almost everything. More often than not, he is my sanity. However, somedays - he is also the reason for my insanity, but hey, that's marriage....right?? All things considered, I am a very lucky woman - and I know it!
Our union brought about the busy little man named Tate that you met in my last post. He is the only one that get's called by his given name in this house - but refuses to respond to it. Puff, Tator Tot, Peanut, and No-No don't get much of a response either. He runs the show around here and no matter what we do to try to regain control, reasoning with a 1 year old hasn't been very successful.....
Hello from our family to yours.
