My whole life I have loved organization. I just think it makes life so much less stressful. I was voted most organized in my senior class. I was always very organized in school and that came in very handy when I started college with a child. When I started college my planner became my bible. At the beginning of each semester I wrote every assignment for the whole semester down and all of their due dates. I had each class color coded by using different colored pens for each class. That way I could plan everything out. Not only am I organized, I am also a planner. Once I finished an assignment I would cross it off. I learned that procrastination is not the way to go. It felt so much better to get all of my assignments done right away so I could relax for the rest of the week instead of stressing about school. Now that I am done with school I still use a planner to stay organized. I write down all of the days Mason will be at his dads for the whole year. I just got done filling out the calendar for the year 2015. It makes it so much easier when people ask me if I have Mason on a future date. I also use it to write down doctor appointments for Mason. I just ordered a 2015 agenda planner off of http://www.maydesigns.com/ They are 30% off right now! You can design your own and personalize it. They have so many cute designs it makes it hard to choose. You can choose anything from a calendar to a budget journal or an exercise journal. Pictured below is the outside of the planner I designed.

But the article also made me realize that I am the lucky one. 1) I got to witness all of the firsts. From rolling over to walking, riding a bike, talking, the list goes on and on. Those firsts brought so much joy to me. Mason was actually walking for a month before you ever knew. The only reason you found out was because I finally told you. As a parent you are so proud of your child, I would never want to miss that! 2) When Mason is sad, hurt, or sick who does he call for? Not you. He wants me, or even sometimes he wants his Grandma or Aunt Bree. We have been his caretakers his whole life. We give him comfort, you don't fit in in that category. 3) I am the one who is...
