Birthday and Christmas Chaos at Katy Mills Mall
Being a Mom takes precedence over being a Katy TX Realtor. (Unfortunately, I don’t think my kiddos would necessarily agree with this statement. Do you have the same guilt-induced scenarios with your children?) I was a Katy Realtor long before I adopted my children. My career, like motherhood, is very time-consuming. It’s also extremely rewarding but never as meaningful as parenting my children.
Most of this time, I’ve been a single mother and have continued selling real estate with the exception of a two-year break when my son needed intensive physical therapy. I love my children and I love my professional life, too. However, when faced with a decision between being a Mom and a Realtor, of course, I chose parenthood.
My daughter turned 17 on Saturday. It’s almost impossible to think about how old she is and how soon she will be college bound! The older I get, the faster time flies. No longer are we celebrating at Chuck E. Cheese but, rather, she picked Friday’s at Katy Mills Mall for her birthday dinner. Her boyfriend, whom I really like, came, too. My, how times have changed.
It’s never bothered my daughter that her birthday is so close to Christmas. Now, that she “only wants money”, she thinks the timing is awesome considering the pre-Christmas sales. It’s all about spending that birthday money, as quickly as possible, on clothes! From my vantage point, it’s all about fighting those crowds, inside and outside in the parking lots. Gotta’ be a good Mom so, into the chaos, I venture.
Saturday afternoon, once I hit the streets inside the Katy Mills Mall perimeter, those with the stop signs, things really unraveled. I am not exaggerating, it took more than 10 minutes to get through each stop sign. There were three stop signs! Are you headed to Katy Mills Mall for the pre-or-post Christmas sales? Here’s my advice: Do what I did when returning for dinner, take the Pin Oak exit!
