The perfect mommy job

I found it! The perfect mommy job- and OK, it's gonna sound cliche, but I don't care.

I work while holding or feeding or playing with Jaden. Or, I can choose to get a babysitter for a couple hours. Ya know, if I need a break.

I work 4-6 hours per week- if I want to

If I don't work hard at all, I make a little money
If I kinda work hard but not really, I make a little more money
And
If I work not that hard but continuously, I make a lot of money!

Right now, since Jaden is a baby and requires more time, I usually work kind of hard, but not really. It's not enough to support a family, but I know I have the potential to make it that way when Jaden and I are ready.

I work with a bunch of wonderful women who ALL want to see me succeed, and have bent over backwards to make sure I do! They give me advice, encouragement, friendship, a shoulder to cry on, high-fives, hugs, and most importantly PRIZES when I do well... or when I TRY to do well!

I know some women who've taken this route unsuccessfully- and that's OK, it's not for everyone. And I've known some women who've assumed it was a "get rich quick" scheme.... they are always unsuccessful, and that's OK too... again- not for everyone.

But for those mom's who want to spend more time with their kids, who are willing to learn, and who are willing to try new things... Mary Kay is the perfect job. And I wish I could thank her in person for creating this opportunity for me. I love what I do, and when i'm tired I take a break. When I'm on fire, I get a sitter.

But, I've never had to put my family or my integrity or my life behind my career. And that is AWESOME!

Jaden's Birthday!

It has really been a while since I've been on here! Sorry followers! I got stuck in the netflix! Ya know, the 1 hour of peace mom's get after the baby goes down and before she swoops through her entire house to clean it.... I've been filling mine with netflix!

But enough is enough! I need to blog and work on my books and my quilt (learning to quilt) and study random subjects so I don't go senile! Right now I'm learning about the cosmos.... holy crap it's Amazing!

I haven't gotten 10 month old Jaden to sleep through the night yet, but we have made significant progress in the last week!! He's up to about 5 hours of sleeping followed by 1 hour of screaming then 4 more hours of sleeping. 

I'm planning his birthday party!! Here are my ideas:
1. Hawaiian BBQ with terry-burgers and coconuty drinks
2. Bruce Lee party with chinese food and pretty paper lanterns
3. comic book hero party fun finger foods and with dads and grandpas     dressed up
4. All american party with flag cake and burgers and hot dogs and fireworks (its the 4th of July).
Yall vote! or let me know your idea!!
