<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Beaumont was a great learing experiance for us and I would not trade it for anything! We grew as adults and as a family so much there!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some people think change is the enemy! I dont always like change, but as I have grown up and all I have found that change is not always a bad thing! Sometimes change is very good for our lives! I think that if we dont run from change good things can happen!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Its true!!! We are!! Well, maybe I should explain more so you understand!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes... I am talking about us Mom's! I found this on facebook today and had to share it there! And then as I stewed over it some more today I relized I needed to make a blog post about it!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Its interesting how we all look at another mom and think they have it all together! I actually talked about that in my last blog post!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We think they are the "perfect" mom! They have motherhood figured out! There house must be always clean and there kids are always happy and good and played with enough!! But most of that is not true!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had are couples Bible Study Sunday night and I was telling a friend there how bad I am at keeping the house up and how Andrew helped me clean this past weekend and my goal is to keep it up better! She told me that her house was not clean till Friday... That kinda shocked me at first! The times I have seen her home it always looks so so nice! I guess I just assumed she had it all together on the cleaning front! Then we were talking of friendships and our kids and she mentioned how some nights she would wonder if she had played with her daughter enough that day. Once again I was shocked!! I relized just how much I had thought other Moms had it together and I was just the odd one!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then today I found the above quote! And it rings so true for me! I am sure there are other moms out there that may even look at me and think I have it all! And I laught and think "ya right!" But in truth, we each think the other person must have it all together, when really, we are all on the same page! Yes, Maybe for some its easier to clean or to play with our kids. Some parts of being a mom come easier to others, but there is always something or a few things each mom does not feel like they are up to beat on! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have decided to be the best mom I can be! And know that other moms out there are fighting the same battles with me!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am almost 100% sure other wives and moms can relate with me on this topic! But even if you cant thank you for taking the time to read this post! This post is mostly about a few things I have been learning and working thru as a wife and mom!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To be honest with you, there are days I feel like I just dont cut it as a wife and mother. There are days the dishes pile up, the laundry really need done, ( hubby tells you he is putting on his last pair of socks) i never even get out of my "messy" cloths, my hair is up, no makeup, and I am doing all I can just to get supper done.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And on days like those I love to look at other friends and think how they have it all together! The one who just posted on facebook that she made her own bread, the one who post pictures of her kids and you can see clean house in the background, and so on and so forth!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And I really did look at them and think they must be so good at this! I feel like im just keeping my head above water!! I get a day planner, I even write out my day! And only 3 things get crossed off if im lucky! I am so not a good wife and mom!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But then ya know what? I realized that I may not be were I need to be on my house! And that yes some of that is on me (i let my phone and facebook distract me) but that does not mean I am a bad wife and mom! And since I see these things, why not take small steps to start changing them!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I did or am! I am taking the small steps to work on things! I also know that no mom really has it all together! The grass is always cleaner on the other side!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am taking those things that have made me think other moms have it all together, and letting them fuel my passion! I want to do those things! And I will!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dont get down if you are a wife and mom and feel this way as well! You are doing a great job! Keep up the good fight! And remember to always love your babies! They are only babies for a small time!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been thinking allot just how blessed I am to be a Mother! Granted, its something I have always wanted to be! Long before I was married I always talked and dreamed of being a mother! But know that I am one it changes things so much!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I remember when I was pregnant with Jonathan I told Andrew that I was not really afraid of the labor party, the party I was afraid of was taking care of him after her was born! I was so worried I would mess up or not know what to do!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I always heard that saying " it will just come naturally to you!" but I did not believe it till I actually was there myself! And it was/is true! I have fallen into the roll as Momma very easy!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have the privalage of being a stay at home wife and Mother to this cutie!!</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To be honest its not fun all the time! There are days I don't get a shower and I have food and spit up on me! The baby is crying allot and the dogs are driving me up a wall and lets not even talk about the laundry and dishes to be done!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But I have found that even during those days I still find the joys in being a Mother!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love watching Jonathan grow up! Its so neat to watch him change and discover stuff!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love starting new things with him! The past 2 weeks it has been solid food! We have done sweet potatoes and Peas so far! He loves them! I love making my own baby food! So much cheaper and better for baby! I'll do a post on baby food this week so keep your eyes open for it!</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Every day has a Momma I learn something new and different about me, life, and Jonathan! Its amazing how someone so small can change how you see life!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes, you give up allot to be a parent, but to me its worth it! I always feel so sad when I hear other Mom's complain about how there child has taken so much time away from them! And some of these moms who complain say they wanted a baby! Children are a joy!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love shopping for Jonathan and he is really starting to grow and needed some bigger cloths! Are local Once Upon A Child had a sale last Saturday were all the clearance Items for on sale for $1 so we went and got some stuff!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Greetings! As this is my first post on this blog I figured we better get to know each other...or more you get to know who I am!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is not my first time blogging, actually I have another blog that I have been blogging at for about 6 years. But since getting married in 2014 I have not been very good at blogging over there and really felt the need for a fresh start! I may change that blog up some and run both someday! For now we will stay here!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My name is Joanna! I love in South Texas! I am married to my favorite man Andrew and we have a 5 month old son Jonathan!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We got married March 15, 2014 and really were wanting to start a family right away! As you can tell we did!</span></div>
