Can you feel it? It is without a doubt getting warmer here in Texas. Enjoy those last few weeks of green grass because I have a feeling we’re headed for another brown summer. But it’s not all bad news. In fact, I for one love the heat of the sum-mer. OK, maybe not the heat so much but definitely the outdoor activities and long summer nights. May is a perfect blend, too. It’s not too hot yet and the an-ticipation of the summer has everyone in a cheery mood. The blooms and butterflies

of April were spectacular. I don’t think I’ve ever seen as many butterflies around as I did this year. This was especially pleasing to my girls. My 5 year old caught her first butterfly with her bare hands a couple of weeks ago and you would have thought she won the lottery. The joy in her eyes was a special moment I’ll never forget.

Anticipation also abounds for all of you Mom’s out there as Mother’s Day is fast approaching. I have to say I’m a lucky girl because every year my girls take on the mission of making homemade cards and presents that are far better than anything they could buy in a store. (That’s what husbands are for!) So, note to men: At the time this prints you’ll have about 10 days left to get yourself into a LOCAL retailer in town and take care of your lady – no procrastinating! Of course, you’re more than wel-come to accompany that gift with a little hand written note. We promise we won’t tell your friends how mushy you are. Armed Forces Day and Memorial Day also grace the month of May and I encourage each of you to take a moment to reflect on just how fortunate we are to have the brave men and women of our military past and present protecting our freedoms every day. Even better would be to tell them personally how much they are appreciated.

Finally, Local Life is proud to announce that we are partnering with the City of Burleson to bring the first City of Burleson Visitor’s Guide in June 2012. This summer is chalk full of fantastic events and we’re doing our best to keep you up to date. Summer also means “project time” so be sure to check out how our LOCAL family of businesses can lend a hand to help you tackle any task – or maybe find an escape after the task is done! Now, break out those tank tops and go enjoy this weather! We’ll see you next month…

Local Life

by April Perry

There’s this crazy phenomenon going on right now. Good, devoted mothers get on Pinterest… and blogs… and Facebook… and Twitter. And then they flip through parenting magazines and TV channels (full of advertisements and media hype)… and they’re convinced they’re not enough. They’re convinced that everyone else has magnetic, alphabetized spice containers, and unless their garden parties are thematically accessorized with butterfly lanterns, and they’re wearing the latest fashions (in a size two, of course), there’s no point in even showing up for the day. u

Your Children Want You

Katie Graves Mom of 2


Last Saturday, this happened to me. I came home from a lovely day out with my extended family and had serious intentions to spend the evening dyeing Easter eggs and making bunny buns. By the time I got everyone settled and fed, however, I was so tired that I just lay on the couch and dozed while my children played and got themselves to bed.

Around 8:30, when I finally had the energy to sit up, I decided to try out Pinterest for a few minutes until my husband got home. There it was–1,000 reasons why I’m failing at all things domestic. I don’t make grilled cheese sandwiches look like ice cream. I don’t even have seasonal throw pillows on my couches or live plants any-where in the house. Is it really so hard? Can’t I pull myself together and wrap some candles in green foliage and bring happiness to our decor with bright fabrics and hand-crafted photo frames?

As I was trying to calm my frenzied state of mind, my husband came home and held me tight. We talked about our day, and he told me how much he loves me and that he wants our boys to marry someone like me. I fell asleep snuggled under his arm. The following morn-ing, our children enthusiastically bounded into our bedroom and tucked themselves into our covers. My four-year-old gave me an arm massage, and we all sat there together–joking,

laughing, planning the day ahead, and enjoy-ing that special feeling of family. Reflecting on the discouragement I’d felt the night before, I realized that my family doesn’t care about what I see on Pinterest. They care about me.

My daughter Grace loves me to sing “Baby Mine” to her each night before bed. When I go to our Power of Moms Retreats, she misses that special ritual. We have recordings of Mi-chael Crawford and Allison Krauss singing their versions, but Grace doesn’t want those. She wants me. So I recorded myself singing “Baby Mine” and emailed the audio file to her and to my husband so Grace can hear “her song” before she sleeps. As far as she’s con-cerned, my untrained voice belongs at the top of the charts.

A few months ago, I was practicing sideways Dutch braids on my two daughters. They had found these great “how-to” videos online, and we set up our comb, brush, and hair bands in front of the computer so I could become an ex-pert. Half-way through the braid, my fingers got all tangled up, the hair was too loose, and one of my daughters had been sitting with her head to the side for several minutes. Feeling extremely frustrated, I said, “That little girl in the video is so lucky to have a mom who knows how to do hair.” My daughter stopped me in

my tracks when she responded, “But I have a mom who is trying.”

My mom is in her 70s, and her memory is start-ing to go. Her sweetness and love are as strong as ever, but when we talk on the phone, she can’t remember the last time we spoke or the last time we saw each other. At the end of one phone call a few weeks ago, I whispered, “I miss you, Mom.” She said, “Oh, I miss you, too! But we’ll get together soon. You can come down to the park, and we’ll get an ice cream cone at Mc-Donald’s.” I replied, “Yes, that will be fun.” But then the tears started, and I had to use every ounce of control to keep my voice even so she wouldn’t know I was crying.

What I really meant was, “I miss being able to talk to you, Mom. I miss lying on the grass while my children make a hopscotch and savor-ing our long phone conversations. I miss you remembering all those secrets I used to tell you. I miss you asking me if I’m okay. I miss seeing you read books and hearing you sing while you do the dishes and having you drive out to my house without getting lost. I miss you remem-bering how much I need you.”

My mother didn’t specialize in home decor or gourmet cooking, and she didn’t lift weights or run marathons. But she makes me feel like I

am the most important, wonderful person ever born. If I could pick any mother in the whole world, it would be my mom. There’s something deeper going on in family life than can ever be expressed on a social network.

Whatever it is we feel we are lacking, can we collectively decide–as deliberate mothers–that we are not going to sit around feeling discour-aged about all the things we’re not? Can we re-mind each other that it is our uniqueness and love that our children long for? It is our voices. Our smiles. Our jiggly tummies. Of course we want to learn, improve, exercise, cook better, make our homes lovelier, and provide beauti-ful experiences for our children, but at the end of the day, our children don’t want a discour-aged, stressed-out mom who is wishing she were someone else. If you ever find yourself look-ing in the mirror at a woman who feels badly that she hasn’t yet made flower-shaped soap, please offer her this helpful reminder: “Your children want you!”
