Do you ever have those weeks when Friday can’t get here fast enough?  Me too, and when I do I often look back and think… what was the rush?   These past months I have found myself reflecting all too often on times that went by WAY to fast.  That is one of the hard…

You know it was so funny, when Rachel sent me her list I realized this would be the perfect way to teach my kids. Tell them what I wished I had done different. Not what I did right, but what I did wrong.
As a mom that is the type of advice I learn best from. An older mother telling me the things she wished she would have done differently. It works so much better than just telling someone all the things they were fantastic with, don’t you think?
Anyhoo I decided I would give my daughter a letter at 13 to tell her what I would tell myself then if I had the chance, and maybe just a few of the things I think I did right.
Thank you so much for your support of TMH, it really means a lot to us!
Things I would tell my teenage self:

-Shirts that show your belly are not cute
-If a boy 4 years older than you tells you he loves you, RUN AWAY!!
-Read more
-You have the rest of your life to be a grown up
-Some people may dissapoint you, but there still good people, nobody is perfect. Not even your mother.
-Spend more time with friends, they will be your crutch one day
-Call your grandmother

ps, I totally had one of those weeks too ;)

I would tell my teenage self that when your Dad asks if you want to go into town with him, just the 2 of you, I should have said yes. Instead of deciding to sleep in longer. I should have had more one on one time with him before he was gone.

O.K. I’m straying again off-topic a little bit………because I can, hehehe.  Anyway, my oldest daughter, Mckayla, decided to call me from college yesterday, which is always such a nice surprise.  Not that she doesn’t call that much but, she doesn’t call that much!!!!! She is calling to tell me that she is coming home this…

At least she didn’t say “I met this guy 2 days ago…and we are now ENGAGED!!!” That would have been just as good :)

I was going to mention a fun blog that I visit. It is called Utah Deal Diva. She does a lot of fun things…but right now once a week she is featuring Utah local businesses. She is on my blog-in the coupon lady list. You should check her out. She posted about the locals thing just today.

Thanks Kristy,
I’m gonna go check it out! I am trying to figure out how to ad a side bar with links to my wordpress blog it’s a little bit different than blogger.

That was a great April Fool’s joke! She had me going! I couldn’t figure out what kind of professor would suggest something like that. haha :)
