Remembering My Promise

I was thinking about a post I wrote a while back A Gift To Myself and decided to revisit my post and remind myself of the promise I made to be more gentle and kind to myself when it comes to my thoughts, especially now that I’m a new mommy. It’s pretty awesome to think that almost 9 months… Continue reading Remembering My Promise

Cut the Control, Unleash the Flexibility

These last few days have been a bit tense for me. As you may remember I mentioned before that I started school again after taking 2 semesters off and now with working part time, going to school part time, plus the new responsibility of our baby daughter, I’m finding it really difficult at times to juggle everything without feeling overwhelmed.… Continue reading Cut the Control, Unleash the Flexibility

Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Now We’re Reaching 2 o’clock

Our daughter Celeste is enrolled in Gybmoree Play & Learn classes and one of the songs they sing is one where each parent holds their baby in front of them and we sing along to tick tock, tick tock, now we’re reaching “x” o’clock, we even do the little cookoo sound to match the time we’re singing.… Continue reading Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Now We’re Reaching 2 o’clock

Milestones and New Experiences

I felt such a need just now to get on here and write. Like when your body is thirsty for water and can’t wait to be satiated. It’s been a week of exciting milestones that I can’t wait to share. So if you’re ready for some baby stories, sit back, relax, and enjoy. Our little girl is… Continue reading Milestones and New Experiences

All Shook Up

I’ve always had some pretty bizarre dreams. I’ve heard people say that dreams are a reflection of things that are going on in your life. Sometimes I’ve had to question that because some of my dreams can be pretty weird, sometimes full of color and imagination – which can be very fun, and other times they’re just downright laughable from… Continue reading All Shook Up

Ballroom Love Story Continued…

So there I was, February 28th, 2006 and working up a sweat at the dance studio while practicing my dance show number with my instructor. Yes, I said dance show number. Since I was on such a roll with the dancing I decided to up the ante by signing up for their studio show in… Continue reading Ballroom Love Story Continued…

Lasting Love

I’m reading a wonderful book by Ravi Zacharias called I, Isaac, take thee, Rebekah, which is about “moving from Romance to Lasting Love”. I actually ordered this book about a month and a half or so after our baby was born (she’s now 4 months) because in my sleep deprived and overwhelmed state, my mind was… Continue reading Lasting Love

A Ballroom Love Story

Did I ever share the story of how my husband and I met? I love our story because it reminds me of how God really does have a path for each of us. Of course we all have free will and different roads to choose from, I believe though that when we follow God’s intended path for… Continue reading A Ballroom Love Story

Love is in the little things

Today was filled with a whole bunch of lovely moments. My day started off with one of my favorite things…my husband and I saying a prayer together before starting a new day. For me this has always been one of the best ways to start off my day. I love when it’s dark in the… Continue reading Love is in the little things
