Yes, I am a supermom wannabe. True, at this point in my motherhood journey, I have come to grips with the fact that I am no supermom and never will be, but, with God's help, I keep striving to be the best mom I can be. I am married to a Hottie, inside and out, Marc. We have four children; Ava (8), Phin (6), Chloe (4), and Christian (3). I love my life and while I am not the mom or wife I thought I would be, I am so proud of the woman God is molding me to be. When you chose to follow God's plan for your life, you may end up in places you never imagined, but I've found they surpass my wildest dreams.

Two Year old Flattery
Ava wanted to put in curlers after her bath last night so this morning after breakfast, we were taking them out of her hair. She was THRILLED. Ava said to Phin, "Look my hair is SOOO curly!" Phin replied just as full of excitement, "Ava! You look like a dog!"
There was a pause and I was sure tears were to follow, but then she said, "Oh, you mean a poodle dog. Yep, Phin my hair is just as curly as a poodle.";)
so funny! this made me laugh so hard-Phin is such a BOY! that is such a typical reaction anyway to girl fashion or beauty....sometimes they just don't get it :-) In this case I know that he was really meaning it as a compliment which is the sweetest thing ever :) -K
