Katho asked what I hoped to get for my birthday & what would be an ideal Mother's Day...
Rhonda asked my shoe size so she can get me some Christmas Shoes, in case I meet Jesus...
Marisa asked if I planned to kill Rhonda...
@Katho--HONESTLY ... I don't care. I really don't. I love gifts...prizes, as I like to call them. I will not lie and say I don't enjoy getting expensive BIG gifts (duh!) but I am truly a SUCKER for little fun things...a little something that shows you were thinking of me, or you paid attention to something I said. LOVE IT. A pack of M & M's given in love goes a loooooooooooooooooong way with me. More than anything honestly it's not WHAT you get me...you can call me on the phone. But it's that whole ''you took the time'' thing. KWIM
Ideal Mother's Day... I'm having it. My whole family will come over after church. I'll be surrounded by people that know me and love me. My ''wish'' would be-in a land far away...to have ONE day for myself. To check into a nice hotel...sleep in the next morning, have coffee while watching the news...a massage, mani & pedi and an afternoon movie. :)
@Rhonda- 11. (they were 9's before babies and I thought my feet were huge...now I know they are...but alas I share the same shoe size as Paris Hilton--I hope that is our only similarity. :)
@ Marisa--probably. :)

The blog formerly known as Kudzu and Koolaid and that was once upon a time called Crafty-ish... it's a mommy blog, a cooking blog, a wordy, rambly spill of thoughts... it's a mess. It's me.
It's me
Welcome to Kudzu and Koolaid.
It's me, Cheri. :)
I'm perpetually 29.
I am considering writing my congressman to have my birthday declared a national holiday (yes, I really like my birthday that much)
I'm was married and I'm a mom.
I've been blogging since 2004.
and it's a full spectrum show around here...there is momma blogging, running blogging, Jesus blogging, food blogging, crafty blogging, cancer blogging and sometimes I really kick up the excitement and snap a picture of my latest fingernail polish shade. :D
I have met some incredible people via my ''magic box''.
I love to read.
I love to crochet.
I'm a runner.
Coffee makes me happy.
Really happy.
My kids amaze me.
They are more than I ever deserved.
I have four of them and I homeschool.
I prefer a neatly presented package--but am learning that life is more about messy wrapping and lots of scotch tape.
I am flawed. I make lots of mistakes. I question a lot of things-often.
I don't always feel like it makes sense.
But God always does & I'm learning to just trust Him and swim around in the grace He extends.
In June of 2012, my then ex husband Donald, was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer with mets to his liver. He had exactly zero warning signs. He is forty-three. He is currently undergoing chemo treatments via a chest port every two weeks. He will have chemo for the rest of his life.
There were reasons for our divorce and a cancer dx did not magically make those go away. But God has a plan, greater than any I would create and far different than I ever imagined. This is God making beauty from ashes.
This is my journey. Thanks for being here.
