Hairdresser anyone?

Do you want a new look? I've found a great hairdresser that will give you some extra "sparkle". He does it with little effort & it doesn't take long to make the sparkle come out. He's usually busy running around but I'm sure he can work something out. There are only a few openings in the morning & late afternoon. Get in while you can! He's only been doing hair for a couple of months but that doesn't stop him!

Please review his qualifications;
Quick
On point
Very cute ;)

 Oh and the best part is, he's free, yes I said FREE! His name is Makai & would love for you to come see him & give you those Grays, sorry I meant Sparkles. I don't want to be selfish and keep him all to myself, that would just be rude of me. I know you'd love some Grey in your hair! ;)

Google vs Wordpress

How's everyone on Google doing? I was using Wordpress and decided to try Blogger so this see how this works. What are some of the pro's and con's you've found? What I did enjoy with Wordpress it was easy to locate your blog online, with Google not so much! All I'd have to do was enter my blog's name and it would immediately come up. Google is easier when it comes to set up though & that's what drive me here. Let me know what you think. Thanks

Faith

There is a saying that I've heard in church & it's "God is good all the time & all the time God is good!" I call myself a Christian as I do believe in God & his promises. He has been there for me during some tough times in my life & has always proven himself to me. I know some people may not believe in him but I do. If you stay faithful, believe & put him 1st in your life you will see him all around. I've posted about being a one income family and things I do to help us get by but it's GOD! He has our backs! We are human so we may not always pray as our first reaction, we may lose patients or not always follow his commandments but if you go back to him he will always welcome you with open arms. Pray (talk) to him about your goals & dreams then keep your eyes open. You never know when an opportunity will arise, he never fails. When the clouds begin to darken & your visibility diminishes he will show you the light that will only grow until it blinds you. Don't look at the upcoming storm as a problem but as a puzzle. We have to figure our way out but using God as a picture. When solving a puzzle you leave the box near you to look at the picture as your guide. You can say we have no owners manual to life but we do, it's the bible. This is another gift God has given to us. Tomorrow is Mothers Day & I can't be more excited. God has blessed us with two beautiful smart boys that will be dedicated together. Thank you for keeping us in your mist Lord.

Living on one income

I've said this before but still haven't done it. I need to start putting my thoughts on my blog & not all over Facebook. Please tell me I'm not the only one that does this. So here it goes.

          I read an article which described the realiaty of being a stay at home parent and it was amazing. When someone hears, " I'm a stay at home mom.", they automatically thinks it's peaches & cream. Guess what it's not! There are days I have everything in a babies world on my clothes and I don't want my husband getting near me. Even though he's nice about it I know I smell, lol. Staying at home is not easy and it's not for everyone but it has always been something I wanted to do. No, we don't have everything but we have what we need. We don't have a flat screen tv, cable, laptop, name brand items or even two cars but we have two children that get to see their parents more than 2 hrs a day. Our toddler gets a home cooked meal and gets an at home education. (He's not in school yet but he can still learn) We talk about moments with our children being priceless but what about being the parent? The sacrifices we make should also be viewed as priceless. I price match, coupon & I'm constantly on the look out for sales to get everything we need. Yes, I may have to stay up late or get up early to complete my task but I do it so I can be with my children. We make the decision to be selfless to create what we see in our eyes as precious/priceless memories & build a strong bond with our children! Kudos to all families that make the choice to have a stay at home parent!!!  

 

 

 

2014

    It's 2014! No, I didn't accomplish everything I wanted to in 2013 but it's ok. I'm human (imperfect)! I did begun my decluttering which I'm proud of. New year so new goals.  With one child starting to crawl/walk and another one going to start Kindergarten this August I know it's going to be an exciting year. My "babies" make my world go round. I'm not ready for these changes but I haven't created the anti-growth pill so I don't have many options here. 

I enjoy seeing the growth, maturity, & independence they both gain daily but as any parent I don't want them to grow up. It saddens me as I see this but I also have a great sense of accomplishment. Being a stay at home mom is no walk in the park as there are no sick or play hooky days. But, the bonding you create with your children are priceless and I wouldn't trade it for nothing :)

31 Day Challenge

I'm always up for a challenge and why not start one now,  it's the beginning of the month? It seems to be perfect timing. I'm better at accomplishing something if I'm put to a test, so here it goes, this is for me but why not try it too? This month I want to focus on my home. Decluttering/ Organizing like I've never had before. Is it just me but do you not want to keep a receipt for even the smallest items you buy? On the other hand my husband throws everything away, from the biggest to the smallest. What will your challenge be? Is there something you have put off for a while? Why wait any longer, start it now! Today I focused on our bedroom closet. Checking everything hung up making sure it wasn't falling off the hanging & ensuring it was on a proper hanger, taking the "empty" hangers out & grouping items by season. Let me know what your challenge will be and how you plan on achieving your goal.
