Everyday is a gift

                                                        keep your face to the sunshine
                                                                           and
                                                            you cannot see a shadow ~
                                                                    Helen Keller

Hi there, I hope that you are doing marvelous today. The sun is shinning bright and trees are standing tall. We are breathing healthy air and a fresh hour awaits. Magic is always near, it's just waiting to be seen by you. I am feeling extremely joyous today. My children are healthy, my home is clean, and the weather here is AMAZING. Many things to be grateful for. I notice the simplest of things, like the moving leaves of a tree, the butterfly that flew right by, and the birds that sing outside the open window. Those things remind me that everyday is a true gift. I don’t take for granted anything that I know, is here for me.  My wish for you on this magical day, is that you encounter bliss. Be aware of everything; notice how the universe is such a beauty and how blessed we truly are to live in this wild, yet beautiful place. A little message to brighten your day, nothing big just a reminder that you too can see through glittering eyes. Be happy and share love. The weekend is here, and Valentines day too, go make great memories with those you love. Enjoy all the love and smiles; hug your children extra tight, and surprise your partner by doing something extremely nice. Remember your friends that are always there for you too. With that in mind, I thank mine. Thank you for the endless laughs, support, and the memories that will never die.

Furthermore, I thank you all so much for stopping by and giving me your time, but most importantly, for the love that you give.

Here is a music video of one of my favorite songs. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Super Mom

 
 
How many roles do you take up daily while being a mom? If you think about it, we have over 50 roles to master daily. All from CEO of your house hold, to a chauffer, personal trainer, nurse, and chef (and many more roles to go down that list). Today, take the time to acknowledge all the hard work you do on your everyday lives. You are such a wonderful mommy, an incredible friend, daughter, and sister. Many times we take for granted all that we do as mothers. We don’t give ourselves enough credit for being Super MOM. Realize that you are a beautiful and awesome woman. Whether you're a working mom that hustles for your family, a volunteer at your children's school, or a stay at home mom; being a mother is always equally important to all of us. I know for sure that, you love your children deeply, and your number one role is to be the best mother possible. However, to be the best super mom, take care of yourself, love yourself and pamper yourself. I've met many mommies while becoming one myself. I've met young mommies, older mommies, grand mommies, working mommies, stay at home mommies, and step mommies. One thing has been consistent, all mommies need time for themselves, and although, the children are the main priority, caring for yourself should be up there in your priority list too. It doesn’t have to be expensive, a little can go a long way.
 
Here is a list of 10 things you can do in 15 minutes or less that will boost your energy and leave you feeling refreshed and cared for.

. Exercise ( it can be anything from going for a walk, run or jog. Maybe you enjoy to dance or lift weights.) the important thing is to keep your body moving.
. Read ( reading is so relaxing and it keeps your mind running and stimulated.) You can learn so much from a good read.
. Meditate ( meditation is very important for your overall health it gives you so much energy and peace of mind) it only takes 5 minutes.
. Bathe ( a warm bath is also a great way to pamper yourself and feel glamour's) hey, add a glass of your favorite wine and maybe a book. Enjoy and come out feeling like a new women.
. Makeup ( giving yourself time to put makeup on and beautify yourself is a great and easy way to feel glamourized )
. Fix your hair ( take time to fix your hair, blow dry it, curl it, straighten it or even cut it.) change your look from time to time.
. Jewelry ( it can be a necklace or ring, bracelet or earrings. I personally love, a nice watch. Jewelry can enhance any look and can give you that extra sparkle.)
. Shoes ( we all love shoes and having a cute pair for everyday can help you be super mom while looking amazing)
. Music ( listen to music, it somehow has a wonderful way to distract and motivate you.)
. Lingerie ( sometimes as women, all we need is to feel sexy, and what better way than to wear a beautiful peace of lingerie to bed) Girl, your hubby will benefit from it too.


You are a super mom; therefore, you deserve to feel incredible at all times. Be the women of your dreams. Love yourself and take care of yourself. You can do it all while feeling fabulous and looking your best. Make time to care and pamper yourself every now and then. Not only will you enjoy your day more, but everyone around you will sense it too. Whether you know it or not, you will always be super mom for your little ones. It only takes a few minutes out of your day to do something nice for yourself. So go on super mom, your kiddos are counting on you.
If you have any tips, go ahead, and let me know. I will love to hear your mommy tips too.

You are worth it

With this quote swirling in my mind, I get the courage to write my fist blog post. Its amazing how easily we can talk our selves out of doing something we want. The unknown is scary, I know, but you know what's even scarier? Going the rest of your lives wondering the what "ifs". We all have dreams and desires that somehow end up fading away; we simply forget about them. Maybe you haven't realized what it is that you want to do (and that’s okay too) However, I challenge you to find a dream and go after it, do something today that will get you closer to it tomorrow. You are worth having everything you ever imagined. The trick is, that you believe in yourself, know your worth, and realize how truly amazing you are. It can be hard to start but remember to take it step by step, you will eventually get there. Stay confident, have faith, and do it with love and joy. I am on a new journey my self and at times it gets very scary. There are moments when I wonder if I have what it takes to actually pursue it. Can I figure it out? What if I fail? Is it worth all the work I'm doing? All these questions come to me daily. I can easily fall into my own trap and stop, but I choose to ignore those voices and focus on the good. I HAVE WHAT IT TAKES!IT IS, WORTH IT! I WILL SUCCEED! Those are friendly voices that I listen to. Following my instincts has been a great way to get closer to my desires. Once I let go of fear, I found strengths that never knew were in me. When you let go, something amazing happens; confidence comes flowing in and you allow yourself to move forward. You will realize many things about yourself when you no longer let fear dictate you. If you allow negativity to hang around it will stay and control you. Start training your brain to see the good in all. You will be surprised of all the magic you encounter in your everyday lives. When you allow yourself to see the beauty of each day it's like you unlock a secret door. People are nicer, you notice birds singing, and everything runs a little smoother. Many don’t realize how powerful our minds are. We can achieve anything with the right mindset. Change your thoughts and you will began a shift in your life that is incredibly wonderful. Don't mind others perspectives of you and realize that the only voice that matters is your own. You are the only person that can get you to where you want to be. You are the BOSS of your life, therefore,make decisions based on your instincts. We all have a SPARK inside of us that is waiting to be seen by all. This is your world so go make magic come true to you. You will never know, until you try. What if you miss out on something amazing because you were to scared to start? With lots of love, Lety
