Hi, I'm Billie-Jo...30 on the 18th shhhhh...lol And well I am a different sort of mom. I am a full time stay at home, taxi driver, cheer coach, boo boo fixer, and aunt. When my mother passed away October 1, 2006, I opted to stay at home and take care of my sisters 3 kids. It was so much cheaper than paying for daycare, as our mom had always kept the kids at home. Little did I know, I was now their new mom(but thats a good thing) Their, real mom, my sister, works full time and is finshing a degree in business at night. Then will go onto Law school. I have the kids most of the time, she tucks 'em in at night and goes on our Sunday afternoon family bike rides. Things are different, and well some may say I'm truly not a mom, I think they are wrong. Being a mom is being able to assure them they will be just fine, but yet again cry while they get their shots. Being a mom is waking up at 3 am with a 3 year old that is sick with the stomach virus, catch it in a bowl, clean up the floor, change the sheets, give some medicine, and yet still manage to be up at 6am to get the others off to school. Being a mom is being at soccer practice, cheer practice, golf practice, and still getting dinner on the table before 7pm. But most importantly being a mom is loving, caring, helping, teaching and praying. So yes I am a MOM!!!
