Just wondering? Are you living your life or are you existing? Big difference! We all do this sometimes but be aware. There is so much beauty you can be missing. So much to be thankful for . . . don't let life just pass you by.
I'm on here today because I realized how much I have learned in the last 7 years and I want to share as much as I can with anyone that will listen (read). I have grown as a person so much and I look at the world with different eyes. Why in the last 7 years you might ask? We'll get into that later but it was a life changing event for me and my kids and I had to do some serious soul searching. I had to find myself. What did I find? I found that I am much stronger than I ever thought possible. I found that despite my many criticisms of myself, I am beautiful, kind, loving and so lucky to be me. I found that looking at what's positive in my life really does outweigh any nagging complaints or concerns. So my short message: Get out there and live life! See the beauty in the simple things like the weather, the flowers, the giggles and happy voices around you. Engage and interact with life. Share a smile and see the ripple effect and how good it can make you feel! More to come . . . Peace and love to you. Have a great day or make it one!
This is what I'm doing. This is going to be INCREDIBLE! I was there for the announcement. It's killing me! Take a look and PLEASE SHARE: www.100percent.ws Shared from one of our leaders, Tony Rush: One year from today....you will wish you started today. If you knew what I know about what Empower Network is announcing.....nothing would keep you from getting started right now.
And, for the record,....no, today is not the best time to get started. Today is the SECOND BEST time to get started. The best time would have been when you first heard about it and decided to stay on the sidelines.
Trust me....you want to already be in forward motion when we make these announcements.
As a full time stay at home mom, my main focus (of course) is my kids. Making sure they are focused, respectful, blah, blah, blah!!! So hard sometimes. As a mom of three boys, I think I have it pretty good. I've seen my friends with girls and some of the drama they go through - and I remember myself at that age!!! Sorry mom. So my oldest is at Freshman orientation today for high school. Wow! I just know I'm not old enough for a kid ready to start high school!!! Yes, I'll always be in denial! As my first baby, this poor guy gets all the experiences first and the tightest reign from mom. It's my first experiences too. As my middle boy gets older, I realize how hard I was on my first at that same age. BUT it keeps happening because I guess I just don't know any better. With my first, I read all the books and listened to what a lot of people told me. He was totally logical, with so much patience and curiosity. He was textbook and so EASY. I could talk to him and explain things and he listened (when he was really little anyway!). I had no idea how smart he was because I didn't have anyone to compare him to. He wanted to learn and had fun learning. He knew and could write the entire alphabet at only two years old. I've always known he would do well in school and I am so thankful that his path so far has been "easy". He hasn't experienced any huge obstacles or horrible teachers or bullies or any of the things that could really make kids dislike school. I am so thankful for his father and for my husband that have given me the opportunity to be home and guide him as much as I can. I can see the challenges arising as he is growing into a man (scary!) but I am up to it and he is definitely worth it! Now onto making money online so I can stay home and pay for college! LOL :-) If you want to see how, please check it out and join me on this journey! www.100percent.ws
I'm still going! Haven't gotten any suggestions on what else to do but I'm still going. Kind of like the energizer bunny. Talking to infinite internet space . . . Hello, hello, hello . . . (echoing) Off to do some chores now. Pity me, please! :-P
This is a video of my two older boys when they were little . . .
melt my heart and I'm in awe of them every day.
A great reminder why I had kids!
OK, still not sure what I'm doing but I'm back and I'm still blogging. Not exactly sure who's out there seeing this . . . but I think that some of you are out there being mildly entertained. Any tips people? I'm floundering around here! :-)
