Smiles


It's funny how things happen. One day you are juggling work, home life, children's activities, extended family, etc. Then out of the blue, you loose your job and for a moment panic. Then you realize that there is an entire other world that you have yet to discover. A world where you are still juggling home life, children's activities, extended family, etc., but you are enjoying it. You are not tired from working all day and you are actually finding sheer happiness being the "best mom" (direct quote from Amanda). Don't get me wrong, I loved my job and the smiles that came when an event was done successfully or a classroom was able to have a picnic because we donated the food, but these smiles....the smile that are is on Amanda's face because I jumped in the pool with my clothes on, or Daniel's grin when I whisper in his ear at 10pm "let's go to the movies". Those smiles will last me a lifetime. It's great to be a mom.

Summer 2010

So we begin a new chapter in our life. Stay at home mom. After several years in PR and Events, an unexpected turn has placed me where I need to be......Home. I am excited, scared and hoping for the best as I prepare for this new challenge. I will miss being out and about with the community the way I once was, but am thrilled at the prospect that I will be able to nurture my family and help them be the bet persons they can be. Thank you to all my friends who have shared their concern and support.
