My baby girl is 5 years old! Where has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday I held her in my arms before she was taken to the NICU where she fought to breath for several days. I'll never forget the feeling on being discharged from the hospital without my beautiful baby! 10 days later she was able to come home where she struggled with RSV that put us in and out of the hospital for the first two months of her life. You'd never guess today by looking at my beautiful, healthy, smart, loving child. There is nothing in this life that I'm more proud of then being her mommy. I tell her all the time that God picked her out just for me. I couldn't think of one thing I'd change. I'm truly blessed.
Her birthday "party" is of course Tinkerbell themed. She got new bedding, a scooter and big pink bean bag chair for her birthday. I'm going to try to pick her up something else today before she gets home. Having a birthday so close to Christmas sucks, she just got everything for Christmas so figuring out what to get her for her birthday was time consuming. We also got her a Tinkerbell Ice Cream cake from Baskin Robbins. Our favorite cake! For dinner we'll make wings and fries (her favorite) and probably go to the gym.
Today was my status conference for child custody. I was told to call "this number" at 9 a.m. & they'd give me the number to call the court room for my appearance at 9:15. I called from 9 a.m. until 9:50 a.m. over and over again until I FINALLY got an answer. The clerk informed me that Brandon didn't show up, so there was no status conference. I was so pissed that I spent an hour calling over and over again, using cell phone minutes, and all of a sudden just because he didn't show up, I couldn't speak to the judge. Believe it or not I was REALLY hoping to speak to the judge today. I wanted to try to get a feel for him. So now I must fill everything I want brought up in final orders through the courts before our final orders court date. So looks like 2/24/11 at 1:30 p.m. is officially my final orders date. I hope he doesn't show up! That'd be a perfect world for me. Either way I'm not worried about it. I know he'll get some visitation but I also know my baby girl isn't going anywhere. I just want custody and child support ON PAPER so we don't have to deal with this shit anymore. It's not like Bella even has a clue who Brandon is anyway. So this week (probably Thursday) Adam & I will go to the Mesa airport and get my flight booked to Colorado Springs from the 24th until the 27th. Many exciting things are going on that weekend. I get to meet my nephew Trenton, my mom is going to be there, I'll get to see my friends. It'll be good times for sure.
Schools starts tomorrow and I am sooo anxious to see what it's all about. It's been 11 years since I was in school lol I hope I can get the hang of it quickly. From 1/19 til 2/28 I have 3 classes (Creating college success *required*, Math & English) on Monday's and Wednesday's from 11:15 until 3:45 p.m. Sine the creating college success class is only like 6 weeks long, on the 28th of February I'll only have class from 12:40 til 3:45 p.m. Monday and Wednesday. I plan on taking a class or two throughout the summer and then starting full time in the fall. I hope I can maintain a good GPA but I'm terrified. I have always sucked at school lol
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!
