Economy, Brothers and Children

The Economy is REALLY pushing us down. Money is no where to be made. Being a stay at home mom is great, but you don't make any money from that job. My husband can barely pay the rent and the bills. we have been riding in overdraft for a month now, right when his check hits the bank its already gone plus some. Groceries are coming at a bare minimum. we have no extra money for anything. I hope the next president knows what he is doing and Helps the economy. the poor man needs to get richer and the richer can stay the same. we just need some equality in the United States somewhere. I mean really you need money to make money. and I have no money, there for will not make any money.


My younger brother was just discharged from the Navy and it was a crappy thing. Really he got the boot for something that shouldn't matter. Something he had no control over and therefor he had no comtrol over the Navy's decision. BUT it's not all bad. he got an Honerable Medical general discharge. He made some stupid decisions when he got out. But he is trying now. I am giving him a place to live. I am going to help him get to work and he is going to pay us Rent. he wants to go to School to become a Dr. which would be great. But he needs to start small and get a job to pay what he needs to pay and then start on school once he has a car and a financial backing to go to school. But Brandon and I are here to support him and help him any way we can. I Love my brother and he has alot going on right now. I wish him the best and Godspeed.


Christian is getting so big. he is already 18 months. It seems like just yesterday that he was a newborn and I couldnt even try to see him as a toddler. These years are flying past so quick!! He is starting to talk more. we had a whole conversation about a ball the other day. He would say "Ball" and " I got the ball" He is getting so big! He is heading into the "terrible two's" sooo quick and oh man can he scream. He can bust your ear drums if you aren't careful! He has started the throwing himself onto the floor and pitching fits. of course now he gets a pittp pop on his diaper and sent into time out until he can behave.. and its actually working!! lol But God i wouldn't trade him for anything in the world. I love my little monkey!
