Home & Season

Lots to do in 2010, my world will continue to spin, hopefully in a better direction this time around. Not that it wasn’t great, but when there’s spinning there’s bumps in the road almost always! But I will stand firm and remain positive. I have a lot to be thankful for.  Solomon, my 6 yr old is in Kung Fu and loves it, its as if his body was created for marital arts. I’ve never seen another kid so focused, regardless of what is going on around the mat. He wants to grow up to be like Bruce Lee with “great power” he says! I can’t wait to see him shine. He went up one belt before the Christmas break, talk about a boost of confidence! OK so I am a little biased, but I’m allowed! I’ll be that mom on the front row with a huge sign saying “that’s my boy!”…and he’ll be like 20 yrs old…lol!

OK so who’s up next on my soap box…yes that would be my lil Benji! Talk about revengeful…since he is the baby he is always up for a fight, this little guy I’m afraid carries more of the Galvan gene in the attitude department! Won’t shut-up, give-up or take NO for an answer without having the last word! He has more of an athlete body frame with the stamina to go along. He tells me, “mama I want to be a baseball player when I grow up”…..although I fear that will slowly progress to a football player. I know that once he gives that sport a try and it’s suddenly OK to yell and ram someone with all his might he’ll say, ” this sport was made for me!” I fear because there’s always gonna be someone bigger and better, & God knows I don’t want my baby placed in harms way! OK so I’m being a helicopter mom (over-protective), but any mama can relate!

And how can I not write about the man in my life, Isaac. He is one hard-working man, who always makes sure the boys and I are comfortable. He makes us laugh all the time, in fact Solomon carries his sense of humor to the T! We are so blessed to have him, he always makes life interesting. God has given him so many skills, I guess he’s a jack of all trades when he puts his mind to it. Well I guess that’s all for now, just had to brag on my awesome family.  May you have a blessed day full of laughter
