About Me

My photo
I am looking for the right path to go in life. I am always searching for an alternate route. Josh my husband, Aden who is three and I live in Valrico Florida. We bought our first home last year and enjoy spending time raising Aden. I currently teach 6th Grade math and science. My future goal is to move back to Michigan where I am from originally and be close to family and friends. I talk to God daily and trust in him for leading me in the right direction. I have made this blog to get my thoughts and experiences down and to help me lead into my future. Thanks for your interest.

A good friend sent me these questions as a fun way to get to know someone. Enjoy the answers
1 - If you were having company for dinner, what would you fix?
2 - What is your favorite easy meal for a busy weeknight?
3 - What is a favorite mommy moment of yours? A moment when you wanted to pull your hair out?
4 - What are some of Aden's favorite things to do?
5 - What are you looking forward to doing this summer? (besides visiting me!)

Company? What to Eat?
1. When we have company for dinner which is not often because we have hardly anyone to invite we usually grill something hamburgers or hot dogs. I also love to make pasta!! We hardly ever eat desserts so when friends come over it is a must brownies, ice cream, cookies something simple.
Favorite easy meal
2. Pasta, Pasta, Pasta!! I have a bunch of pasta recipes I love I especially love alfredo. Any type of noodles put sauce on top and I am happy. We usually add chicken to it for more flavor but Aden loves noodles too! We also have tacos A LOT
Favorite Mommy Moment? Wanted to pull your hair out?
3. I love when I go to wake Aden up and he spreads his arm really wide ready for a hug and says "Good Morning Mommy" with a huge smile. I also love the times when he does something I didn't know he could do or he asks me to sing him a song and I pretend I don't know the words so I have him sing it and we have our own little sing a long. There are so many I LOVE being a Mom!!
Pulling my hair out moment has to be potty training! He sits on the toilet for at least 10 minutes before nap goes pee and then I lay him down with a pull up on, about 5 minutes after he is lying down he is saying, "Mommy I am poopy!" as if saying Mommy come change me. He knows it bother me i know he does and does it to test me I think. Also lately it has been going to bed we brush teeth read books say prayers and say our good nights (He has a gate on his door or he would never go to bed or stay in his room) About 5 minutes after putting him down he is up playing with something in his room or hiding behind his rocking chair. Often I ignore him and pray he will fall asleep and many times I go in there before I rest for the night and he is sleeping on the floor. He has a full size bed and he prefers the floor. Who knows! He does sleep in till 9 if he can though!!
Aden's Favorite things
4. I hate to admit it but watching Mickey Mouse Club House or a DVD ( I try to regulate it often!!) He also loves being outside, so if it isn't too hot we play on his swing set, sword fight in the backyard, play with squirt guns, run in the sprinkler, go for walks or bike rides, and most of all he loves to sing songs and read books!!! Singing from me books from Josh great traits to take on.
Looking forward to this summer
Besides of course visiting the Vande Waa home top of the list:) Family, Family, Family!!!
We have camping, family reunion, Shipshewana, baby shower ( for cousin), Wedding shower (another cousin), Wedding, Driving over to Niagra Falls visiting with everyone. Getting my hair done!! I only get it done when I come hoe so in between the trips it looks terrible and spends most days in a ponytail until the next visit. I just love being home and having Aden visit with Family and Friends the adventures in Michigan is a lot different from the adventures in Florida. When God gives us the opportunity to get back I will have the moving company on my speed dial!
Thanks so much for the questions!
