I'm Misty! Welcome to life as I see it. I'm MOM to McKade and a full-time x-ray tech. In the last year, I have gone through a divorce, learned to live life again, and completed a Bachelor's Degree in Radiologic Sciences. Somehow, some way, I plan to share some bits-n-pieces from this crazy life I love!

Amazing!

As time marches by, I am constantly reminded of how AMAZING McKade is! He is SO smart! I am so lucky to have been blessed with this wonderful little boy!! Thank you GOD!!!

McKade seems more and more "grown" every day. He is learning to speak properly, learning letters, numbers, and how to interact in society! He is writing the letter H! Why H? I have no idea, but it is the one he asked me to show him. I enjoy every second that I have with him and I never want to imagine life without him!

I just had to take a minute to share with everyone - I LOVE MCKADE SO MUCH!! He was fast asleep tonight when we got home... he never even grunted when I put him in the bed over an hour ago. Now as I sit here and watch him sleep, I know there is nothing on Earth more special than this! I love being McKade's Mommy!!

What a weekend!!

I have been stressed about this weekend for several weeks for all of these reasons:
  • My three classmates and I have been working since the beginning of the year to plan and host our 10 year class reunion that was Saturday night!
  • I helped to host my friend Stefanie's baby shower that was also on Saturday!
  • I have been working on a MAJOR project that counted for 1/2 of my grade in my capstone course - project due Tuesday!
  • I have an additional exam in the very same capstone course due by Friday!
All of these things coming together at once were rather nerve wracking! On Friday I made the pasta salad that was served at the reunion. Thanks to my friend Heather - the recipe was a hit! I also assembled my cheese ball for the shower. Miranda, Stephanie, Lee Ann, & I, along with a few others, decorated for the reunion and I showed up after the decorating was done to Stefanie's to drop off the baby shower supplies! Saturday couldn't have been better!! The baby shower was perfect! The class reunion was perfect! I think most everyone enjoyed themselves! I got caught up with some of the best friends ever!!

Today, between playing with McKade and trying to clean in the house, I have managed to bake for Austin, complete my project, AND take my final test - MY FINAL TEST EVER!!!

I feel like such a weight has been lifted from me! I feel truly blessed!
