On The Wings of A Butterfly

by Corky Ferguson

Your friendship is special

Like the flowers that bloom,

Or when a butterfly emerges

From within its cocoon...

You remind me of that butterfly,

Loving and free,

Bright and colorful,

For the world to see...

We will share sunshine and rainbows;

Sometimes, the rain and the snow;

We'll stand together through it,

While the cold winds blow...

When the time is right,

We won't stop to ask "Why?"

Our friendship will take flight

On the wings of a butterfly ...

I think this is the time to tell you about my best friend, Kayla Boyer.

We met in my 9th grade year in high school.

she's one of the reason that Leon & I are together now.

She's pretty nice, all around good person, loyal, has my back, thoughtful, kind, caring, she

knows when to talk and knows when to listen, gives wonderful advice. she's

understand, she's there when ever i need her.

always txt back even if its at 2:47 am in the morning,

even best friends fighting but when you can forgive each other after words mean alot more.

Kayla & I dont like the same things but that just makes us better friends.

& she's funny!

But when she moved to New York, it sucked!!!  We talked thru myspace and txts  & when i had a baby shower she came all the way down and stayed in town. i was excited my best friend just moved back but she just broke the news that she's moving to Florida. its not as far as new york but still its 2 1/2 hours away.

So Before she leaves were gonna hang out alot!!

KAYLA MARIE BOYER, I LOVE YOU AND BEST FRIENDS CAN MAKE IT THRU ANYTHING!

day 19 & 20

                 My very first Mother's Day was wonderful, i woke up to a very lovely

cry, So i got up and made her a bottle and let my mama hold her while i used the restroom, i went back to the bedroom, my mama brought Lizzie back there to me and Lizzie was holding a rose. it was wonderful and i loved it. My plan for mothers day was to take pictures of Leon & Lizzie, well he got called in to work two hours early. It stunk but hey he makes the money so i cant say anything. Then for my mothers day gift to my mama was to take 3 generation pictures. Her, Lizzie & I. i was excited and then she was hurting to bad for pictures. so then my best friend Kayla came over and we walked down to Leon's mama house & i sat down there with her and the boys with Kayla for about 2 hours. i left Lizzie at home and so i ran home to her and spend more time with my mama.  Leon came home and then we went back to his mamas house for mothers day too. Kayla had to leave but then we came home & i got Lizzie ready for bed & i followed her lead & drifted off myself.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO EVERYONE OUT THERE!

DAY 20 (Monday)

Today i woke up a little late but its not my fault because my personal alarm clock slept (Lizzie) late too. last night Lizzie spelt with us. i know she shouldn't but i kinda miss her being in my belly, but we slept great together we always do.

i got up to find Nana (mama) not here. she went to crystals to sit with Ethan while she went to a doctors appointment to find out that she is extremely dehydrated. Crystal came home then Nana came home. then Courtney woke up, and Ive been cleaning all day.

then i walked/jogged a mile today under 18 minutes i think that was really good. But someone is really cranky , I'm gonna get off and be on here tomorrow!

day 16 & 17

    DAY 16

I gave My daughter her FIRST BATH   5/6/10 & what an experience that was! I loved It, okay here's the

     Story!

                             I took her diaper off and held her until the water was the right temp.

I'm just waiting and waiting, and guess what? she peed on me, all the way down my shirt.

i gentle put her in the water and she loved it. she didn't cry much until the end, i forgot to close the window and the wind came in and then she started crying but other than that she was a champ!

We got alot of cute pictures and Leon's Aunt Melissa sent Lizzie this beautiful outfit and two head bands! thanks Aunt Melissa!

After the bath Lizzie Slept all day and night. i had to wake her up every 2 1/2 hours to eat.

THIS IS ONE OF THE HEAD BANDS!

SHE WAS SO CALM ;)

SHE STARTED GETTING COLD!

SHE LIKES MOMMY'S PINK TOWEL&THAT PACIFIER

;)

        BATH TIME WAS AMAZING FOR ME
                                     &
              I'M SURE SHE DID TOO!


                DAY 17!
Wow, Lizzie wanted to get up at 6 am this morning, but i didn't fuse. I fed her and changed her diaper and then she went off to sleep around 8. that gave me a chance to clean the house, sweep and mop mostly and finish the dishes. Nana woke up at 9 and leon at 11. I started cutting the grass but yeah the lawn mower ran out of grass so i have to wait til nana gets home to finish. she has the money hahah. Now im sitting in the ac broad to death & lizzie is sleeping. i think i might walk the yard to see how many times make a mile. i bet its four!
well im off for today oh yeah my MOTHER'S DAY present to myself is a flower garden For lizzie & I.......-thanks self

DAY 15&16

 day 15

Tuesday, Leon had to go to work really early and i wanted to sleep in but i guess not. ;(

but someone has to make the money. So i got him up then Lizzie. Leon Left and Lizzie & i went back to sleep. After waking back up, i got something to drink and started on the dishes. This was a very average day, and it started raining. Lizzie wanted to cluster feed yesterday and i didn't know what it was before today (Wednesday).

Leon got off at 5 and then i didn't get a break, it was really hard and i think i was emotional allot yesterday & today, Tuesday i was all "i cant do this" and today, i was all like" i hate everyone". confusing huh?

Day 16

First off, Lizzie didn't want to go to sleep last night, and i did!

Finally we went to sleep at 5:45 am. and i had to get up at 7:30am

for Lizzie's 2 week appointment with Dr.Webb. Lizzie gained 14 oz. and grown 2 inches in two weeks. that's an oz a day!!!

The doctor said that was fabulous and that she was doing really good.

she's our champ! i love her. Leon always gets to hold her at the doctors office but today he did explain why he did. He thought i would get nervous because the doctors watch you like hawks in there and he thought of me, sweet i know but its just a decoy so he can hold her.

But then We came home and got some food.

Lizzie had a long morning so she slept all the way home & she ate & then she went back to sleep. Leon & I went for a walk while my mama watched Lizzie. I enjoyed our time together although it was like 20 minutes but ill take what i can.

Then Leon, Lizzie & i went to the middle school to pick up Leon's littlest brother Tyler, from football practice. It was hot in his car. we waited an hour and Lizzie did really good until about the last 10 minutes.

We came home and Leon ate and then fell asleep on my chest & writing this post is really hard because I'm typing like a chicken pecks the ground!

well I'm off because I'm going to get a bath ready for Lizzie!

wish me luck!

hopefully we'll get some good pictures!

DAY 12 ,13&14

Well Saturday Afternoon, Lizzie's umbilical cord fell off. We haven't given her a bath because her belly button is still kinda bleeding! IS THAT NORMAL???

 Its now Monday night & i haven't even blogged about Saturday or Sunday.

SATURDAY

Lizzie & I went for a stroll in my back yard just five minutes but still I'm sure she enjoyed it.

We also got a new puppy, its between a red nose pit bull and American staff shier terrier.

We named him "BEAR"

The first day we got him (Friday night) he came in and went straight to

Lizzie's Crib and didn't leave her side until he had to go to the bathroom and

went to the door and sat until someone let him out!

i think i might like Bear. although the dog is great but Lizzie had a problem keeping her milk down.

I'd feed her bottle and then id go to burp her and wow everything came back up.. so a genius idea. give her an 1/2 oz. then wait 20 minutes then another 1/2 wait and then so on. So Saturday night was a delight, no sleep again. But she didn't spit up at all..

SUNDAY

Since Leon was so nice to get Lizzie yesterday morning, I slept til 12 pm and he had to be at work at 1 o'clock, So i didn't get to spend anytime with him but thanks baby if your reading this. Everyone had to work yesterday so it was just me and Lizzie mostly. so i invited some friends over Kayla (best friend) and Alton (His step brother & best friend) but then my mama came home from work and then she offered to watch Lizzie so i could go outside. so we made a big fire, well not that big but still pretty nice, but then i had to come in like an hour couldn't take not being near her.

I loved her hands in This Picture!

MONDAY

After this morning waking up at 10:15 and Leon has to be at work at 11 o'clock.

this morning was hectic! So again no time with each other. It sucked.

well i lived but i woke Lizzie up and we had a late breakfast & i did some cleaning while she drifted off.

I noticed it was very warm and sunny out side. i took the opportunity and went outside. My mom was inside and so was my sister Courtney. i had nothing to worry about for an hour.

I came in and noticed Lizzie didn't sleep as long as she normally does. She was a tad bit cranky

& i felt like i was gonna be sick from out of nowhere, my stomach was turning then when i stood up i got lighted and thought i was gonna pass out. i figured this day was gonna kill me, so i forced myself to eat and then i took a shower while my sister was here.

i felt little better then i realized i hadn't even taking my blood pressure medicine in two days.

maybe this was why i was feeling so bad.

Gosh, i wish people would just grow up. its tiring that someone thinks their better than someone else but no one is. NO ONE SHOULD JUDGE, ITS NOT YOUR JOB, ITS GOD"S...

well I'm off to my big beautiful bed to get at least some sleep...

good night blog world,

a sleepy mommy

DAY 11

Honestly, Can anyone tell me what do babies dream  about?!?

                       DAY 11

Wow, No sleep, as i imagined but what do you expect when your helping baby sit 3 toddlers. Lizzie was best out of all of them! Today, with My Nana, Crystal, Bubba, & Courtney( 3rd sister)

We Spent more than an hour in the sun while Lizzie was sleeping hard. So, I'm a little burnt and I think Lizzie is sick.

This is the 3rd time Ive fed her today that she'll eat all of her bottle and then i go to burp her and she throws everything back up. This Cant be good, i don't think she's even getting anything she needs from the formula.

• WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?
• TIPS?!?

Today Is a Mile Stone In My History Book.

Lizzie's umbilical cord fell off, which I'm sure you know what that means, FIRST BATH.

I'm so excited for in the morning & Leon will be here to enjoy the experience with me! I think i might cry.

 I think I'm about to head off to bed, I'm sleepy and tonight might be a long night.

his forever,

Candi
