Hey blog world!! I soo miss this. As you all know, I haven't been working therefore i'm running low of money, so I opted to let my internet go. :( Just for a little while though, until I can get back to work and make the money again.
We had a GREAT Easter!! I hope to get all of those pictures uploaded as soon as possible. As well as CDCs 5th birthday party pictures and post. So much has been going on and i've stayed extremely busy. CDC had a fantastic birthday. I can't believe she's such a big girl now. 5 years old seems SO big! *Sniff!*
I am 38 Weeks as of Thursday and I have 13 days left until they induce. Yikes!! Getting so close. And I AM READY!! :)
Hopefully, i'll get my internet back soon. Maybe my family will offer to foot the bill for a month or so so that I can update on J. Claire :)

Privacy
Just about everyone I know has a Facebook page. Even my dad! And that's saying a lot because he doesn't know the first thing about computers.. Anyway, I've had a page since early 2007 and i'm on it and updating every single day. However, recently I've realized I wanted to be a bit more private from some people "in my life" I put that in quotations because they aren't involved in my life at all, but they are connected to me in a way. I'm not sure I should go into all of the specifics, but let's just say I wasn't comfortable with them even possibly knowing things about me or the baby. So I deleted my Facebook page. I did create a new one, but it's very private and i'm not mentioning anything about the baby or when she's due. If you were my friend on the old one and want to be on the new one, you may email me at kaycee cook {at} att {dot} net without the spaces and parenthesis.
I'm not very open with any of my personal life here on my blog. I've been through many ups and downs in the past year and I just don't feel a lot of my "readers" or people in general would understand. None of you know what's going in with me personally and that's ok.. Someday, I may choose to share where i'm at and who I am personally and relationship wise, but for now, just know i'm just a mom to {almost} 3 girls! And that's all that matters.

Thankful and Blessed
So, yesterday I was in shock. I didn't know what to do with my emotions or feelings and I lashed out. I feel like my post was angry and bitter and I don't want to be that person.
Today, I woke up feeling blessed and thankful to be here another day. Instead of the woe is me attitude, I am choosing to be grateful for everything I have. My children are my greatest blessing. They are the ones that need me. They need me to be strong and healthy for them. As I sit here this morning, CRC wants to sit next to me and hear me read to her and sing her songs. I can't imagine not doing these things with her. Yesterday, I felt like giving up, throwing in the towel, and just going to bed forever. But today, I want to see the world, so to speak. I want to do all the things i've always wanted to. I want to do simple things and just enjoy my life, my girls, my family. Even just to go outside and sit on the grass and watch my kids play with our dog sounds nice. I don't want to be that stressed out, overwhelmed, bitter person that i've been for so long.
I realize I didn't get a death sentence, but it was still scary news. I still don't know the outcome and won't for a few weeks, i'm guessing. But, I feel like I need to live every day to the fullest. I want to live, not just be.

Who Am I?
Why is this the title of my blog, you ask. Well, it's simple. I didn't know who I was, where I was going in life.
Over the past year, I have been through so much. I had never been on my own. I had my first daughter when I was only 19 years old. My second daughter at 22. I rushed into a marriage because I was pregnant. We were good friends, but the love just wasn't there. I still care deeply about him as the father of my children. He is an amazing dad, but I was losing myself. We divorced after 4 years and 4 months of marriage. It was rough. I moved into an apartment with my girls, got a job for the first time in my life, had to pay my own bills, raise the girls alone during the week, do everything..alone.
In the meantime, i've started going back to church. It's the best thing i've ever done. I feel so much peace in my life. I finally handed all of my problems to God. I can't do it on my own anymore. I'm loving my life at the moment. I'm learning who I am. I'm spending all of my time either at work or playing with my girls. I've realized they mean more to me than any man ever could. I needed to go through all of this to get where I am today. I'm hoping to grow more each and every day..
