My First Blog

Well it's midnight and the boys are sleeping. By boys I mean my husband and 3 month old son. The house is quiet. Quiet? That's a rare thing these days. At 24 I feel completely comfortable with my life until that is I strike up a conversation with an old friend or perfect stranger for that matter. The dialog usually goes something like this:
Them: Are you teaching?
Me: No, I'm staying home with my baby.
Them: I thought you got your degree?
Haha... Thanks. Why is being a stay at home mom seen as less important than a career? I have my whole life to teach, to work. Not to knock the working mom but shouldn't this be my choice? Anyways I love being at home with my little one but some days I kind of miss my fast pace life of going to school and working. I miss learning and chatting it up with adults. That's why I'm doing this blog. Not so much to find readers but to reach out. To write again and take a few moments each week for some adult dialog. And so for anyone who reads this you will take a walk in the day of me, Razzy. I'll try to be honest and share my adventures or misadventures as the case may be as well as any new insights on the world.
My topic of interest today is about friendship.
My greatest friend is my husband. I really think marriage should be based in that. Beyond him I have a tight circle of close friends including my sisters. Each one is so unique and has changed my life by being a part of it. I have the strong stubborn friend who takes on the world, the thinker and free spirit, the one with a kind if not flaky spirit, the passionate fiery one, the one who would do anything for you, the wise listener, and the rock.
This weekend I watched my good friend of 11 years get married. Where have the days of plaing MASH gone? She was beautiful and looked so happy. My heart felt full of joy. And today I learned my other friend of 16 years is pregnant! Oh how my heart ached to be there to hug her and congratulate her. I guess we've all grown up... And I'm so blessed to be a part of their lives still.
So tonight as I get myself ready for bed I am filled with peace, excitement, and love for my friends.
Goodnight readers if you are out there :)

  1. I will so enjoy reading your thought each week. And I do believe that your degree can be used no better place than in your own home. Kiss your smallest boy for us. Jacque'
