Everyday
To all the mothers (whether by birth, adoption, or surrogacy), I want you to know that you are loved, constantly thought of, appreciated, and more than anything, you’re wanted and needed.

Day off
If you were looking for a post or your daily note of encouragement, here it is. Sometimes, you need to learn to take the day off, and take some time for yourself! It’s easy to get burned out, but even harder to recover. If you are tired, exhausted, and restless, that’s your body speaking, so…

Living on the edge
Over the weekend, two of my sisters and a cousin, went to Las Vegas, NV. While there, they went to visit the Grand Canyon, a place that I’ve longed wanted to experience.

Look no further
When we want approval, we look to others. When we want advice, we look to others. When we want assurance, we look to others. When we want a way out, we look to others. When we want to be happy, we look to others. We’ve given people so much control and responsibility over our lives,…

Today is a GOOD day (to love)
Happy Good Friday to those of you who celebrate this wonderful day! For those of you who don’t, I hope you will join me next year! On this day over 2000 thousand years ago, a man laid down His life, so that I could have mine. I am forever grateful and appreciative for God using…

Do your thing!
What’s something that you absolutely can’t live without? Before you respond, necessitites is not the answer (well, at least in this case)! This “thing”, whatever it is, is something your mind won’t let go of. You eat, sleep and breathe it! It brings you so much joy and you just can’t fathom what your life…
