I promise to be excited!

There is something to be said about sharing emotions, and joy is one of the most fun! I realize that there were times where my joy wasn't shared at milestones, and although I understand WHY, its absence makes me sad. I promise, my children, to be excited at your milestones!!

Be kind yet honest with me when you feel I am not supporting your joy because it is important to me that I do that. When you are going to get married, let's announce it with flair and uniqueness to YOU. Your first child is a blessing. Let's rejoice and not worry about the stresses or responsibilities it may bring. A new job, another baby, a high school graduation, first flight! All of these things that are special to you are special to me, and I want to magnify your joys! Let's celebrate life, shall we?


I love you, my babies! Mommy is so, so proud!!

All Things Equal

One of the world's biggest mistakes is to make everything of equal significance. There are rich; there are poor. There are beauties; there are uglies. There are ups; there are downs. The important thing is to not get caught up in that and to notice and appreciate all things for what they are to you, without any comparison to what others think. It is a huge challenge because I believe all humans just want to feel a connection, so we look for a way of connecting, using our "significants" and comparing them to find similarities. Be comfortable in just being, and let the natural flow of the universe, the holy of the spirit, bring what is meant to be yours right to you. Work with it, not at it.
