Look What I Found


I am so grossed out right now. Look what I found on our patio. I HATE snakes. Okay, I know some of you are saying, "What the heck do you mean, Heidi? You guys have a pet snake! How could you hate them??"
Well, I DO. The only reason why I tolerate Neo (our snake) is because he is #1 caged, #2 he is as big as he is going to get, which isn't very big, and #3 as ridiculous as it may seem, he has a very calm personality when he's not ready to eat. Jerrod had him before we started dating and at first I couldn't even step foot into his apartment knowing that another one of his roommates had a cage full of them. If we had to go over there, they had to cover the cage with a blanket so that I couldn't see them. It gave me major anxiety. When Jerrod and I got more serious, I started to get used to Neo and I didn't feel that I could throw Jerrod an ultimatum of me or the snake. So, there you go. Neo is now a part of our family.
But, I don't ever want another snake again.

So, just a little bit ago, I went outside to let our cat in, and right next to the step there it was. This little snake. I don't care if it is little, I still don't like it.
I couldn't tell if it was dead or not because it wasn't moving. I was about to give my cat a "good cat" award, thinking that she possibly did kill it, but then as I went back outside to see if it was still there, it was gone. GONE! Now I am even more grossed out thinking that it is somewhere and I don't know where it is. And, to make matters worse, Jerrod is at the dentist. He isn't here to rescue me.

A VERY Significant Day

I am behind on some blogging, but I realized that I won't be able to get all of that done right now before I post this. And, I really want to post this today. Some people get the opportunity to have something so significant in their life happen that changes them forever. I am one of those people. Today is a very special day for me. One of a few very special and significant days for me. I have only been celebrating this day for the past 7 years, but I will celebrate it for the rest of my life. Today is Birthmothers Day. Yes, I am a birthmother. I know that most of you do know this about me, but there are some of you who don't know and this will come as a shock to you. I wanted to take this opportunity to write down my feelings and hopefully I can share some sort of insight to this topic. For those of you who don't know...a birthmother is someone who has placed a baby for adoption. When I was 18 I discovered that I was pregnant and was scared beyond imagination. F...

It has been a very long time since I have last posted.  Very long.  I have so much catching up to do, but I need to write about a very special little girl and the fact that she is turning TWELVE today.  I first wrote about my story here .  If you have no idea what I am talking about start there.  Read my story.  It was the first time that I really shared my story out in the open for the whole world to read about.  Five years later, so many things have changed.  I have changed.  We have added 2 more beautiful boys to our family.  We are blessed beyond what we could have imagined.  Today, I will be thinking about Alex all day and I will play the events over and over in my head for the next few days. Alex is twelve today and that blows my mind.  Sometimes I feel like that experience was something that I just lived and other times it seems like forever ago.  But, I can't help but continue to ache for her and ache for that re...
