This Moment (inspired by Soulemama )

     A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see.

Vintage Banner

     I recently won a giveaway on the Vintage Sheet Blog for this lovely banner made with Vintage Sheets and Doilies. I absolutely love it and it is already hanging up in my home. It is made by a sweet mama in Australia. Her blog is called Handmade Bits and Pieces. Be sure to check her out. I love giveaways! Do you know of any fabulous giveaways happening in blogland?

I miss you MOM!

     This is my first year as a mother of two. Another baby, another heart living out of my body. A new love to care for, dream about, watch over. I love being a mother and I knew my life would not be complete without having children. It has been the most satisfying, yet challenging job I have ever had and I know the hardest thing I will ever do. Although, my mom never had the chance to meet my girls or guide me about becoming a mother, in her own way she was able to teach me some important lessons before she passed away. There are three things that stand out. You have to have fun, you have to sacrifice and you have to love unconditionally. I am blessed to have an amazing family with great role models in my life. My Auntie Linda, my Mother In law have been tremendous supports. And my husband.........my strongest support. Thanks for the surprise flowers and giving me some "me" time that I desperately needed and most of all thank you to my little blessings Violet and Vintage. Thank you for teaching me how to be a good mama everyday. I love you with all my heart and soul.
