Wish...

I'm always fooled
It's easy to do
Unable to ever distinguish the truth

What you said to 'her'
I should have known better
Than to think it wasn't just you being clever

My heart doesn't break
My soul doesn't shake
But idiocy fills my mind for taking the bait

I love you so much
My skin always flush
Aching and yearning for one single touch

Let down my guard
Such disregard
Rationality broken down to: how green is your yard?

Into your arms
Disarmed by your charms
You were actually the man I knew all along

Our tale of love
About rising above
Why get distracted by the past and what was?

Simple minded today
Wish the memory would fade
What does anyone know about love anyway?

Household : 3

Life has been outstanding these days. I'm still on maternity leave from work, so I get to spend all day, every day with our little snug bug. Being a parent is certainly a challenge, to say the least! But never have I felt so rewarded, as I do by a simple smile from that child. He's amazing and sweet and precious as hell! He grows by the day and I love witnessing when he hits new milestones...holding his head up, smiling, laughing, cooing...and to think there's still countless more to come!

I'm absolutely dreading going back to work...but I still have 3 weeks off, so I try not to focus on that just yet. The holidays so far have been wonderful, and just having our son around makes it seem that much more complete...even if he just sleeps next to us while we carve pumpkins or make a wish on the wishbone of the Thanksgiving bird. I've been trying my hand at baking and such...first a pumpkin pie from scratch...then gingerbread for our house...today Reese's peanut butter cup cookies with green and red M&M's on top. I'm not doing too bad. Next I want to make cornbread...always loved the stuff, but sometimes it can taste dry, it'd be nice to learn to make it and make it awesome!

Today, Drew and I are going to finish putting together our gingerbread home...we decorated it but haven't assembled it just yet. I so want to get our tree and decorate it and make our house all warm and festive and full of warm holiday cheer...but alas, we're waiting for Drew's mom and Mike to come over from New York! I'm so excited for them to meet their beautiful grandson! I didn't realize that Drew's mom has actually been waiting for a grand baby for years...before I even came along. Drew was with his last girlfriend for five years, following her over from Yellowstone...so his mom kind of assumed that was gonna be it...and then I stuck my pretty little head in the picture, haha. She's been thanking me for giving her something she's wanted for so long! So this little baby of ours was very warmly welcomed by his family. Life is just marvelous, and I'm happy as can be.

Once I go back to work, I'm sure my tune will change...for many reasons...I just hope I can find a way to not be away from our son for 80 hours a week, cause just the thought of it breaks my heart.
