It's Been A While

Oh my how things have changed, how I haven't updated here or wrote anything. I get the urge to write and then something comes up or I loose the will to write. Here lately life has been plaguing me, well not so much life but my mind. Hopefully I can see a doctor soon. Enough of that I have stuff to share.

I am proud to announce that I am a Daymar College Graduate! I earned my Associates in Science degree, specializing in Business Management. I walked the line August 10, 2013 and finished my last classes and internship September 10, 2013. What a wonderful, stressful, time consuming opportunity it was to advance in life and complete an item on my bucket list. The day was wonderful.

First and foremost Thank you God for giving me my second chance at life to go to college and better myself and others around me. You are truly an amazing and merciful God.

Special Thanks to the staff at school  that encouraged me, listened to me, picked me up when I was down, and shared in my happiness.

Special Thanks to my family and friends who listened to me complain about homework or how I wasn't understanding or how I would act like a two year old whining that I didn't want to go to school that day. Thanks for pushing me to the finish line, for understanding when I couldn't talk or hangout because I had homework and a special Thanks for all you dealt with during the two and a half years. I can never Thank you enough.

Last but not least Thank you to my internship site, the Cliff Hagan Boys and Girls Club: Mike Horn Unit  for giving me the opportunity  to work with you and share in your busy days. Without your help I would have never got my hours needed to graduate. Thanks for your hospitality, dedication, and sharing in my excitement of completion of college and my hours.

I'll end here and try to attach photos of graduation, I'm writing this from my phone and this is my first time so I'll try and figure it out.

Love and Thanks to All;
Rebecca

Beginning Mother

Motherhood... Oh where do I begin.

Ever since I was little I have wanted to adopt, to give a child a better life than What they had, to give them shelter, to give them Love. Teach them a few things and Maybe have them teach me something too.

I was told when I was 14 that due to a condition I have (cyst covering both ovaries and then cyst covering those) that getting pregnant would be slim to none. I still haven't fully believed What the doctor said because I believe God controls those gifts that he gives to people.

My dad and uncle and their two sisters were
Placed up for adoption. When I found out as a child that my pops was adopted I vowed I would adopt a child.

I figured I would adopt instead of doing fertility treatments, or implantation because let's face it, I don't have the resources to do so but I figured there was a child already in the world who is waiting for me to come into their life, a child who would Love me and I Love them.

I didn't realize at What age I would receive the gift of a child, I estimated in my mind thirties... I was definitely off.

At the age of 26, this beautiful little angel would come and implant themselves inside my heart forever.
She is a joy to all those she meets, a sweet laugh that will silence a room and be so contagious, the best little kisses and hugs.

Kyra is such a blessing to me, she taught me a mother's Love, she taught me a whole new way of living, she taught me I could half way function on little sleep and taught me I could make a bottle in the middle of the night, in the dark.

Everything I do is for her, everything I want to accomplish is coming true because of her.
She is my reason for living, my reason I was saved in my car wreck.

She is forever my little girl and I wouldn't change it for anything.

Thank you Kyra for being the beautiful, unique, sweet and caring child that you are. I Love you more than the stars in the sky.

Love always
Your forever Mommy.
