Why I Love My Baby Mama

My last couple of articles have been related towards mothers. So, this week I decided I would follow that up with why your mommy friend is the best to have. My best friend Chelsea and I have been best friends since high school. Seriously this girl has been my rock. I went through some phases where I thought I was too cool to hangout with her and we quit talking for awhile, but I seriously cannot be more thankful for this girl in my life and how she has helped me grow.

1. She blessed me with two of the greatest kiddos: I am their self proclaimed auntie of these two amazing kids. I love going over there and watching them grow. I get to sit around and play with wrestlers and watch the little one learn how to roll and laugh. That means more to me than she realizes.

2. She has had the patience to raise two kids, so she has enough patience to deal with me:lets be honest, I am 23 years old and I am still working on getting my head on straight. This gal has put up with a lot of my whining and daily rants, and sometimes she shakes her head at me and laughs, other times she gives me good advice, and like any other child I do the dumb thing over and over until I learn my lesson. She takes me back with open arms every time, with her head still shaking.

3.She makes me feel so welcomed: With my crazy work and school schedule she seriously takes the ease off life even if it is just an hour lunch break. I try to go and visit most everyday if my schedule allows it and even if she is running around trying to keep up with her kids and husband, she always saves a place for and has even started to include me in her grocery list for little things. It has even got to the point where her husband asks if they are gonna get me anything at the grocery store for the week, or if I am coming over for dinner.

4. She knows I do not want kids and she is 100% supportive of my decision: most of my mom friends are actually supportive of my decision, but she supports my decision in a hilarious fashion. I'll get a text every once in awhile with her support by saying something along the line of "reason number 20 to not have kids, I have one crying and the other run running around with no pants on." Don't get me wrong, she is the best mother I have ever met, but she definitely has some interesting stories about her babies.

5. She is seriously a friend like no other: she has the most caring heart and will seriously do anything for anyone and expect nothing in return. Even in high school she made sure to do everything she could for me if i ever needed a shoulder to lean on or a time to vent about some boy. I don't think she will ever realize the love I have for my baby mama.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
