My Real First Touching Moment as an Auntie

I had my nephew Tristan the whole weekend and usually when he stays over with us he and I always have a little Tata and Tristan time. I try to see how he did through out the week at home and school, he tells me about moments with him and his brother that week, you know catch up and QT time. This weekend we didn't have our time until now and I love it so much it made me cry.

Ok Ok well I called down to spend time with me and he was just poutting around and wanted to go upstairs to play with his uncles. Then he said to me, "Why do you want me down here anyways?" and I told him I just wanted to spend some time with him before he goes home and he is still poutting and saying he wants to go upstairs. So I let him go because I know he is getting older and he wants to hang with his uncles to play games and watch sports but it scared me for a minute thinking he won't care about not having our time or my feelings.

I thought wrong. I don't know how he realized I was hurt and a little sad when he went upstairs but when he came back down to get something I was sitting at the corner of my bed, watching TV and brushing my hair, he comes up to me hugs me and says, "Sorry Tata for hurting your feelings, I just wanted to play the game. Do you want to come upstairs to play with us or do you just want me to watch TV with you and talk? I love you tata." and gives me my Incredible Hulk Hug. Then I just started crying because I was so touched. When he said that made me feel like I am doing my job to be the auntie they know loves them unconditionally. He knows I love him and now I know he know I love him.

Well I have to go he is waiting for me to play Wii with him.

January is almost over

So January is practically gone and I have no idea where it went. This is just telling me that time is flying by once again. Man the other night I had a dream that I was shopping and in all the stores they had Halloween decorations and I kept telling myself in the dream that Valentine's Day hasn't even passed yet. Then I woke up. What was the meaning of the dream I have no idea.

Anyways it has been a while since I've blogged, work in the beginning of this month was crazy and I actually took a short vacation to Vegas to visit one of my good friends , my God daughter and his family. That was a really relaxing and fun vacation, they let us stay at their house and man they are the most sweet, caring and hospitable people I know. I owe them big time. We spent our whole vacation with them but it was okay because who better to spend it with than with people you enjoy being around. So we went up there on Thursday 1/15 with the hubby, my BFF in the whole world Charles, my sister Judy and her family and my brother in-law. I think that we all needed to get away for a while.

So that Sunday we drove up to Mt. Charleston (30 mins away from Vegas) to go play in the snow because it was my God daughter's birthday and Jojo really wanted to see the snow. So we were having a really good time and started to take pictures. I was standing next to a tree taking a picture of my sister and her family and if you look at Jojo and hi dads eyes (in the picture below) they are looking at someone coming down their sled really fast, next thing you hear is "Ate/Jenn watch out!!!"

The guy ran into me from under my legs and I fell hard flat on my back. All the guys were looking for the guy who knocked me down but I told them to forget about it, it was an accident. I knew it was an accident and I thought the guy would at least come back from down hill and apologize but he didn't. I saw him and his friends and all they were doing was laughing. That was not very nice, which made the guys we were with even more mad. I just told them to let it go since I was okay plus they were kids around. Well I thought that I was okay because I didn't feel a thing when I got hit come to find out an hour later my back and left shoulder blade area was killing me. I guess I has so much adrenaline from the excitement that I didn't feel it. So up to Tuesday when we left Vegas my back was swollen and in pain. I finally went to the ER last week and they said that a muscle was pulled and inflamed. Now I have to take meds. =( At least I didn't break anything so I am happy about that. I really hope that guy is careful next time especially when kids are playing and sledding in the snow. Oh and if I wasn't standing where I was he would have ran straight into the tree. Lucky for him I was there. Jason was up the hill when it happened and he came running down to me but he slipped and almost knocked me down again. My crazy husband.

Other than that incident the vacation was great and I have no broken bones. This is my start to staying positive. =) Here are a few pics from Vegas. Til next time.

Happy New Year

Happy New Years fellow bloggers. It is a new year and I am leaving everything stressful from 2008 in 2008. I woke up with such a great attitude yesterday and felt like I had no worries in the world. I thank the lord for all the blessings in 2008. I wonder what he has in store for me this year. Whatever it is good or bad I know he will get me through it. It all just depends will I be able to handle it, with his guidance I know I can. So HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL and we will just have to wait and see how 2009 goes.
