This weekend was like every other weekend in our family, BORING, except I spent a lot of time thinking about our Tuberous Sclerosis friends. This past Saturday was the Walk for a Cure in Long Beach but we were unable to attend this year. I was sad to miss it because one special girl, AMELIA,…

Fun Friday Photos…
I didn’t have a post ready for today once again and I was ready to take a day off when inspiration struck as we were all playing in the trampoline. After dinner everyone was jumping and I was watching and about to go inside to do the dishes when I decided I would join them…
Good grades or morals, which is more important?
Why is it that a day doesn’t go by that I don’t hear someone say on TV, the radio, in the market, at school and numerous other places “Oh, he/she is a great kid, they get straight A’s!” Please explain to me how the concept of “being a great kid” equates to receiving great grades. …
Do I inspire you?
My friend, Lanaya over at Raising Reagan gave me the Inspiring Blogger award today and I am finally accepting this one! Thank you Lanaya! I have received a few awards in the past but sadly I don’t always accept them because that means writing a post about the award and then passing it on to…
Have you found your passion?
I think one of the hardest things in life is to find something you are passionate about. As a child I was always good at stuff but never great or passionate about anything. I loved school and always received good grades, but never straight A’s. I liked swimming when I was younger but then I…

Who was in my closet?
Monday morning I woke up so sore and achy, I had trouble moving. After lifting 4 bags of mulch in and out of the car and then dragging them around the garden my body was screaming for help. But that wasn’t the only reason my body was crying out for help. I think the biggest…
I stopped the madness!
I have to admit that my healthy eating and no sugar lifestyle have completely been lost over the past few weeks. I have a serious sugar addiction and when my life gets tough you can always tell by what I shove in my mouth. Anything with sugar in it! I have been on a really…
My new favorite cookie!
As many of you know, I have a serious sweet tooth, which I normally satisfy with a cookie. I like cookies which are homemade, from Mrs. Field’s, the Corner Bakery and Paradise Cafe and that is pretty much it. I am super picky and hate to waste calories on bad cookies. While I was in…
When every plan changes…
Wednesday was supposed to go like this. I get Trinity off to school, Tiara and I go for a walk with my friend around Balboa Island, Tiara takes a nap, I write my blog, I fold the laundry, I make lunch for us, we go to Target and then pick up Trinity early from school…
