Proud to be a Hinkle!

My husband wrote a blog tonight about all the real mean in his life & well all the REAL men in general & frankly there are not a lot of them left out there. But it got me thinking about the important men in my life & well I decided I want to brag on one of them just because if it wasn't for him I may not be who I am today!


First off one of the biggest & most influential men in my life: My Papaw James!
This man has been there for everything, he is my rock. I am through and through a papaw's girl & i'm raising my girls to be the same because well to be honest there is no man alive like my papaw!

I have so many memories and stories I could share but I don't think I have the time to write all that (atleast not right now that is lol) But here is one that is very important to me.

One of the biggest moments in my adult relationship with my papaw has to be...When I found out I was pregnant with Kendall of course I call my Mom first, then my Daddy because even though I knew they were going to be disappointed in me, it was going to be nothing like the way I was going to disappoint my papaw, I cried and begged my daddy to tell him for me. But it was something I had to do myself. So I called him and just came right out with it & His exact words were "Well we'll get you through it. Are you okay? Are you moving back home now? Do you need me to come get you? Do you need any money? We sure do miss you. I love you too sis!" and even with his questions of concern for me, I could still hear the heart break in his voice. As of today, I look back on the day I made that phone call and it seems silly. My papaw never fails to pick me up if i'm down. His hugs melt my heart & when I hear him tell me he loves me (which he doesn't say to everyone in the family) I go back to being 5 years old on papaw's knee cuddles up watching old western shows & wrestling.

My papaw showed me everything I wanted in a husband, Hard working, Loving & someone that cares for other as much or more than he cares for himself. & because my papaw set such high standards I've went through a lot of bad guys. Until I met Shane Lee!

He will forever be my best friend & there are no word that will ever describe the love I have for this man! James L. Hinkle, Hands down best Papaw around  :)

Welcome to the backwoods.

My husband & I were talking earlier tonight about the way people in our area talk. As most of us call it "The Language of the Rednecks/Hillbillies".

So here are a few of those that just flat out annoy the living crap out of me:

Yellow - Yeller

Hollow - Holler (Guilty of using this one thought lol)

Pillow - Pilla/piller

Window - Winda/winder

Have to - Hafta (getting me talking too fast & I'v guilty of using this one too haha)

Tire - Tare

Fire - Fare

Are Not - Hant

Borrow - Barrie

Over there - Yonder

Id love to know some that bother other people or if they bother them at all?

But in all seriousness I am not judging anyone person, All I believe is that if teachers, parents and adult in our children's lives would encourage them to talk plain and use the correct word for this that we would have much smart, better educated & maybe even better mannered kids!

But manners is a whole different topic for another day...

I do not like Sharing!

Ariella will be 3 come October 26th of this year & I have always went above and beyond to keep the peace with her father & that side of her family. Until recently that is. I took him to court last month for Child support, to establish my custody rights, along with setting up standard visitation through the courts. Basically so that he would have to follow the rules and he wouldn't be able to try to take her from me or stop paying the agreed amount that we had decided on with child support after she was born.

After going to court we came to a mediation & the papers are due to be signed and filled any day now. But as of the first of August he keeps wanting to switch his weekends or never coming in when he is supposed to & then expecting me to switch weekends with him. Because he went from getting paid ever week to every other weekend he thinks that I should change the entire visitation schedule to accommodate his schedule.

So tomorrow i'm calling my lawyer and discussing with her what should be done now about the visitation, I don't want to change it on my own with out talking to her because i'm afraid it will then look like I don't care about my time with Ariella. 

All I want is what is best for Ariella. For her to get the time she deserves with her father & baby brother. But I also want her Father to make her more of a priority in his life instead of an obligation. 

She deserves more dedicated time with him & I feel that even on the weekends that he comes in he doesn't dedicate that time to just time with him & Ari or him, Ari & her baby brother.  

It's hard for me to stand up to him & not try to keep the peace, I want us all to get along and be civil but in the process of doing that they treat me as if I am a push over. They make me feel like i'm keeping Ariella from them and then I feel guilty even though I am not doing anything wrong & I give in. So now that we have the lawyers involved I feel that it is important to run all the big decisions such as changing the schedule to fit his needs by her.

Oh, why cant I just keep her home with me all the time! I don't want to share anymore :(

Revival is coming!

Its Sunday so what else would I talk about other than what I heard in church this morning.

My pastor talked this morning about the spiritual awakening that is coming to our church, the end is near & people need to get ready for it!
Our church and the Christians in our area need to get ready. We need to get rid of the imperfections in our life that keep us from being closer to GOD. Weather that be people, things or Social media.
My family has gotten rid of Facebook due to the support of gay marriages & I honestly believe that God is preparing us for the times ahead. I want to be a soldier for GOD & show him that I will do anything to be closer to him. I am ready to stand up and fight for his word.

I grew up in church and have always heard of Revival but never truly knew the meaning. But from what I have learned as an adult it is all about the improvement of the conditions or strength of our Faith.  As a devoted christian I am always willing to improve my faith and the strength of my relationship with God. With the end being near I feel all Christians need to Strengthen there relationship with GOD. As my pastor always says "If you are wissy washy with GOD, he will be wissy washy with you". the same as you cant be almost pregnant you cant be almost saved. You are either saved or you are not. You are either ready to fight for you salvation & the word of God, by spreading his word. Revival is coming and people better get ready it will be a spiritual overtaking of our area, I feel if you are a christian you will grow closer to GOD & those that are not saved or that are back slide will either get right or get left. There is no in-between with GOD.

The time is Now! What do you choose...

Ever lasting life in paradise with the King of Kings, The Father of all Fathers, The savior him self
who will wash away your sins just by excepting him into your heart, trusting & believing in him?

Or Do you Choose

Internal damnation, life in the valley of death, living in the lake of fire & paying for your sins?

Lets fill you in..

Hey, My Name is Teresa i'm 25 years old, & the mother of two beautiful daughters. My girls are my life, my everything, the reason I breathe & the reason I get out of bed each morning.

My blog is called Uncommon Mommy Life & most people will wonder why I called it that & what is so uncommon about my life as a mommy. Well let me fill you in... I am completely deaf with bi-lateral Cochlear implants. I started loosing my hearing the summer after 8th grade & then finally lost all hearing in my right ear half way though sophomore year of high school. I got my first implant in 2005, it is a very complicated and painful surgery but well worth it! I then lost all hearing in my left in the beginning of my senior year & received my second implant in 2008, at first I did not want to have the second surgery because I knew how painful it was, but looking at my life now i'm grateful my parents pushed me to have the surgery. All because they knew one day I would have children & to hear them say ""I Love you Mommy" Makes any surgery in the world worth the pain I went through to be able to hear again. But enough about me, let me tell you a little about each of my girls.

Miss Kendall Jaylynn, My saving grace! Kendall will be 5 years old come February & is in her last year of  Pre-K. Kendall has Epilepsy & Infantile Spasms. The Infantile Spasms started when Kendall was 5 months old, but her pediatrician thought she had colic, so for one whole month she was having seizures up to 18 hours a day and the doctors said it was nothing to be concerned over. On September 3, 2011 Kendall was rushed to UK Children's Hospital in Lexington, Ky where they told me that I need to make arrangements because she most likely wouldn't make it through the night. I Prayed & by the Grace of GOD my Kendall lived. The next day the Neurologist came in to see Kendall & told us her diagnosis & what Kendall's life would most likely look like for then on out. They told me she would never walk, she would never talk & that she would most likely be mentally challenged. Kendall Walks on her own everyday, She will talk your head off if you let her (granted she doesn't communicate like other kids her age, she communicated perfectly for her) & she understand basically anything you say. She is highly smart (she is developmentally delayed... which means she isn't at the level of kids her own age at the moment but she is catching up). We now see a Neurologist in Cincinnati at the Children's Hospital & we love the care we receive there. Kendall has been through a lot, but you would never know it, because she is the most loving child you will ever meet :)

My Prissy Princess, Ariella Paige! Ariella will be 3 the end of october. She is a spunky, sassy, smart mouth diva. She is my best friend. When the doctor told me I was pregnant I was mad, I didn't want another baby. I was scared I wouldn't be able to love that baby as much as I loved Kendall. But the moment they said I was having a Girl, I knew that GOD was sending Kendall & I a best friend. GOD knew what we needed & he Knew that Ariella was the perfect prissy answer. Ariella (or Ari as we call her) was named after my granny Stella who was a very strong willed woman. & I believe she would be proud of how well Ari is living up to the name :) Ari is the little girl that walks in the room all shy and bashful & 5 mins later is telling you a story with her head bobbing and the facial expressions of a teenager. She is a nail polish, make up, bow in her hair, dress wearing big ball of sassy. Oh & she is a little bit Pony obsessed lol She spends 3 weekends of every month with her Nana, Great grandmother, Father & baby bother... & not one of us could disagree with the fact that you will never find a more compassionate, motherly, loving little girl. Its hard to describe Ari in words Because all my heart is filled with is Love.


Well you still may not understand what is so uncommon about my life... but if you keep reading my post you might understand :)
