Fresh Start Challenge Day 9: Kiss the Girl





My last kiss was underwater. Wayne and I went to the dragon boat races. It was a beautiful day (yay tan!) And Wayne and them came in third again... for the second year in a row.

We took Faith to Odette's and Chris's house in Tuscaloosa. We loved having a mini vacation as a family. It was so much fun. We played Disney music the entire time dancing and laughing. Wayne and I flirted all day and it felt so amazing. It felt like we were teenagers splashing water on each other and when he pulled me under and started kissing me it was heaven.

I have to say that ranks better than kissing the rain.

Fresh Start Challenge Day 8: Who We Are



I rarely stress. Though I am not as laid back as +Carolina.

Wayne and I already have a house that is fully furnished and everything is perfect including two game rooms for him.

My past is finally gone. I only have to worry about memories.

My family is happy and so am I.

I have one heck of job. I do something I love, with people I love dearly.

So no I am not worrying about anything right now.

Sure Faith, my daughter just spent the night in the hospital but the good Lord made her better and we are home tonight.

Fresh Start Challenge Day 7: Filling In The Pieces

I was born to an Alabamian and a Louisianian.
I have one true real sibling.

My real parents died in a car crash when I was just 3 months old. My mom's sister adopted me and I never knew I had different parents besides my aunt and her first husband. I mean I look like my siblings and stuff except for my eyes.

I found out last year when things started to not measure up looking at different papers. My parents had always told me that my last name was unique to me. Other people had said I was adopted but I ignored them (I am not apologizing if you are reading this.) My aunt finally told me the truth that she wasn't my biological mom, but that I was her daughter. That shocked me bad enough.

What I was prepared was Wayne. Wayne came into my life almost as soon as I moved to Huntsville. He is our preacher and it was strange to have your preacher ask you out on a date but it went amazingly.

Then his world crashed. His ex girlfriend from the year before during his last year of college shows up with a baby girl. She's Wayne's. Tested and everything. I never saw the ex girlfriend when she dropped off Faith. She gave full custody right to Wayne. I fell absolutely in love with Faith. Faith started calling me mama right away.

Wayne and I broke up for stupid reasons and we have moved past that. Our little family was all and well until I was scanning important documents to put in a fire safe box. Erin Leblanc was listed as Faith's mother. I freaked out. I didn't tell anyone right away. I simply asked my aunt/mom could I have the papers about my family.

Faith's mom is my sister. My older sister. I asked Wayne if he knew. He said he was thinking possibly cousins but didn't want to cause trouble. But now we know that Faith is so close to being my daughter it's amazing! Faith is blood to me and that means amazing things for me.

Fresh Start Challenge Day 6: Fight!





Wayne and I have our ups and downs many times.

We had our disagreements about his past and mine.

Our biggest downfall was when my cousin wiggled her way between us.

We found our way back together.


I love how dorky he is. I love how devoted he is to all games and not just certain ones.

I love how passionate he is about his job. I mean we have the highest college age attendance in the southeast!

He is smile is adorable.

The food he makes is incredible.

Plus he is an awesome dad to Faith.

Fresh Start Challenge Day 5: Annoying but Cute




I love him but I do grumble about these things but at the same time they are cute..


  • Quoting The Hunchback of Notre Dame. He thinks I look like Esmeralda. 
  • Singing 80s music. Seriously stop showing your age I feel like a baby in a crib.
  • No we cannot do the whole house in game stuff. I would like people to think you have a life outside of preaching and games. Seriously act like a guy and not a nerd.
  • Stop using me for human lounges. 
  • Stop making spaghetti we have a child under 2! It's going to end up on the ceiling every time.
