"Movie Star"





I was going out! A big deal in my house. I had a little boy wanting to get in the shower with me. I hollered out, "Drew, where are you?" Then Deveraux didn't want to leave my side until she knew what I was wearing. Then just staring said, "you look so pretty." Most days are sweat shorts or swimsuits.


There are times in my day that I feel that "nothing is sacred." You pour a drink, it is drunk from, you leave anything out and it is explored, you go down the stairs and you have the pitter patter of little feet following you. Mostly everything you do is watched, asked about, or touched. There are times you just want your own. But then you leave it and get the much needed perspective and you think, "I am a movie star in my own home."


Who else in life cares so much about your every move with such curiosity?


So I came home that night and I had two very happy children to see me, we had a " love fest." Anderson kept hugging me and then looking and then hugging. Deveraux just wanted to lay on me. I held my babies and put them to sleep. Ahhh, nothing like it. I think I will keep my movie star status! And just leave every once on awhile for us all to be reminded of all we have.


And just think I get to be a movie star again tomorrow!! And I am not ready to give up my leading role any time soon!
