My kid went sky diving in Hawaii today. She has been talking about it for over a year. I listened but I did not believe.
But I should have known. She is my kid.
I even called Wes today for back up on how this was a terrible idea. He did not back me up. Which 1. Is complete role reversal. It’s usually me telling him to let her live. 2. He always backs me up. 🤣
So I did what any rational mother would do and I tried to talk her out of it. She in fact, DID NOT CARE.
I said “Tatum, If I saved you from diabetes (remember when she over dosed for 9 straight hours) and you die from a perfectly functional airplane I’m gonna be pissed”.
She said “mom, that’s exactly why I’m doing it”. She had a second chance at life. She refuses to be scared. He refuses to live in fear. She refuses to have any more of her life taken.
She is gonna stand up and make her life everything she ever dreamed of. Face fear. Conquer every goal and dream. Dream big. Live out loud. Intentionally.
And honestly, while I did what any good mother would do and try to talk her out of it, I was secretly so proud. I am proud. And I’m super relieved she is in one piece safe and sound on the ground and I hope she never does it again. 🤣
Her jumper guy (I don’t know what they are called) asked me if I knew. I said “yes I knew and I wish she didn’t tell me” 🤣 bc I had to work all day in complete anxiety.
But yall, this is my kid. A little bad ass loving her life showing others that diabetes will not rob her of joy. That she is going to do whatever she puts her mind to.
Now let’s conquer some things on the ground. With both feet. Even though the sky is the limit for her.
Thank you to the Freese family for taking her bc I physically could not have done that. Must be a boy mom thing. 🤣
What an incredible experience for them.
God is so amazingly good. He created that space, that ability, her and this opportunity. And kept my baby safe.
Tatum, you’re my hero. 🩵💙🩵
I wanted a new ice chest to take on road trips. But one that would also be easy to get on the boat. Or take to the beach. Or anywhere else we want to go.
So I went to @dickssportinggoods to look around and see my options. Then I spotted this beaut. Venom it’s called. Yall know I’m in my green era. So….she came home with me.
She fits perfectly in my car. I can lift her by myself. Even though my husband would never allow that. I got some matching neon @hydrojug and a cup holder for the side. I’m obsessed. 💚🩷💜🩵
Isn’t this the perfect color!???
When I reflect on 20 years of my career and how I became successful, it’s mornings like this.
My client comes 20 min late to a move up appt with all new hair and all her original hair removed.
If you’re not a stylist let me tell you. That’s about a 6 hour appt in a 2 hour slot.
But you know what? I make it happen. I don’t tell my client anything but how amazing this new hair is gonna look.
We have the best time.
I see so many stylists cut off clients, tell them they can’t take them if they are late, reschedule, make demands on the very people who choose you. Who pay our bills. Who help us put our kids through college.
I say this with LOVE. Serve your client. Even when running late. Even when they change their mind. I get you’ll have to squeeze and hustle and run behind.
But you CAN do it. Every client will need grace and you will too. So cultivate salon of opportunity not rules and I can’t.
This particular client is so good to me and my staff. We crack up at all her shenanigans. We have become great friends over the years and she always shows me how much she appreciates me.
So the least I can do is return the favor. I want to be the person that makes her hair dreams come true. I love that she will say “Adrianne made it happen”. 🫶🏼
Went to see “obsession” at Clear Fork. Yall. The absolute worst movie. Like so bad, we walked out.
And he took me to CVS to get new mascara and Dove Chocolate.
That girl screaming was the worst sound ever. Who directed that? The guys acting? A scared little awkward character.
The whole thing. Just dumb.
My whole spirit was interrupted.
So, tomm let’s try on some new mascara together and see which one is better. Much better use of my time. ✌🏼
I love when my husband says “hey Landon, help me”.
He will never get the opportunity to throw a football or ride four wheelers.
But it doesn’t mean he can’t do things to teach his son, or bond with him in unusual ways.
Dustin is so patient with Landon but also so fun. He cracks jokes like he would if it were any other way.
Landon follows him around his room or house just waiting to spend time and be near him.
It’s prob one of my favorite things about these two. 🩵💙🩵
