Children’s Love

This holiday season, how will your kids spell love??

– T – I – M – E.

Seems so simple, yet parents are always so busy during the holidays, making sure everything is prepared and knocking items off their ‘to-do’ list. I must admit that I am guilty of this too. There are always times when we can get more accomplished without the kids, but put yourself in your kids shoes for a minute…

I Believe…

Some believe your time is done. The cycle of life continues, and as one point in time ends, another new adventure begins. We all have the same 24 hours, so each of us has the same starting point. We begin new days either positively or negatively, happy or sad, content or angry, and on and on…

So what do you believe?

I believe we are all destined to do something great. Whatever that means to each person, we all have talents and desires that will push us forward. Life changes, whether planned or unexpected, allow us moments to reflect upon our own goals and determine if we have stayed on course or drifted into another direction.

I believe contentment is all within reach, however you define it – a work/life balance  – being financially-happy  – having a loving family, etc.

I believe in the power of a shower…to wash away a bad day and re-energize you for what lies ahead.

I believe in the History channel’s motto… history is made everyday.

Be ready and go make it happen.
