JoJo


HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOETTE!

I hope your day is magical! You bring magic to me. All day today in your honor I am going to be singing "do the JoJo" and dancing like that too! Thank you for bringing joy to our home. I know living with us has probably shown you an extra side of crazy that you thought was never there in our family but hey we're just keepin it real baby! :) Someday we will have it all together...(maybe). Anyway ...here are some things I love about you:

Your smile
Your style

Your hair
Your flair

Notice the poem form ...yep I am trying to rhyme.....

Your healthy tips
Your road trips

Your rappin ups
Your pudding cups

Your taste in movies
makes me feel groovy

Your piano playing
is amazing...just saying

Your so kind
you blow my mind

Your spirit, your laughter, your joy of the day....
am I getting carried away?

I love you Joette, Happy Birthday!

Deactivating

So today I did something that some poeple might think is crazy and others might say "good for you" ... I deactivated my facebook account...yep I did it. I am having withdrawels from it already though. This morning I was so strong thinking..."Calie you spend too much time on the not so important things that doing this will be so good for you" ... and now... well I am thinking "why?" But I really know why...it's just that change is hard for me and breaking habits are so hard for me. And facebook had become a habit. So really it wont be bad once I break the habit of wanting to go to that facebook page everytime I log on...I am hoping that by leading by example my children will follow and realize they too can break the facebook cycle. :) That there actually is a real friend world out there and that spending time together in person is so much better and that talking face to face can be so much more rewarding. I love my kids and I love my family time...this is going to give me more of that time back. So please feel free to wish me well in my endevor. I am going to need it (my willpower is so lacking).
