Can't

Can I just tell you how loved I feel by my loyal blog readers. While I don't have the most comments of all the blogs out there... I know my readers are out there. I have received a few sweet emails from people that I do and do not know and I just want you to know that you really MAKE my day when I hear from you and hear your opinions and advice! Really. But start commenting... I won't judge you as a blog stalker I promise!!!

Why is the word CAN"T so haunting? Even from the time we are little toddlers and someone says-- You Can't do that! Human nature is to go ahead and do it anyway and learn for ourselves Why we "can't" touch the stove or pull the dogs tail, because usually a painful outcome follows.

I guess those life lessons we learned when we were 2 all the way up to 18 were meant to prepare us for the difficult life full of Can't ahead.

Now when I feel like I can't do something it really makes me Mad... it makes me just want to do it anyway and suffer the consequences later. I hate Can't. {Is anyone sick of that word yet?- yeah me too}

Just a few days ago I was talking with someone close to me who is trying to have a baby, she said "You need to have another one Aly". Well it has come to me that I really would want another baby. I love babies. That's what I do. That's what I am good at. And seeing all my babies growing up so fast makes me want more! JUST CALL ME OCTOMOM :) Anyways I replied with a very glum "I just can't." "Really I can't we have not the money nor space for another life." Sad. Just knowing that I can't makes me want it even more.

I guess this is where the lesson in patience comes to play. Patience Aly, Patience. Maybe in 5 years we will have the money and space, maybe not. But at this moment I need to be content with what I have and wait to be handed my next job when the time is right. IF you ask anyone close to me I really am a hyper person... I have to have things done like NOW, or yesterday, or Last Week. I hate waiting.

I know I know We all CAN DO ANYTHING WE WANT TO DO, but really there are somethings that you just Can't do... at least right now. Case in point:

I let chloe look at some jewelry online and pick something she wanted for Christmas... of course she picked a $35 necklace-- Cute as ever but I just Can't afford that-- Boo! Maybe next month. Or maybe I will find something to sell, hmmmmm

I was invited to a parade in Tempe this morning with a good friend of mine but I just CAN'T do things like that. Me Myself and I with 3 kids at a parade = DISASTER

I just Can't seem to get all of my laundry done... EVER, there is always a huge pile the next day. On the flip side... at least have all of his laundry. I don't know what I would do without that man.


So what is it you just Can't do that drives you crazy??? Tell me.

Kisses!
