Hello my love. I’ve a question for you today. What’s your part in creating the life you have right now? Ask this, not from a blaming or shaming perspective, but from a I’m a powerful creator perspective. The available perspectives are unlimited.

Yes please! Not because anything is wrong, but because it’s all so good and I want more. My kids are growing up and don’t need me in the same way anymore. And I’m ready for something big. Really big. And awesome. And fun. What my pretty groovy life looks like now is based on old… Continue reading How about a life re-design
Hey babe, first of all, you are totally as cute as that baby. Silly hat and all. Just let that soak in for a moment, this sweet, yummy, innocent, vulnerable baby lives in you.

Hey beauty, there are a gazillion things known and unknown that I love about you. Discovering them will take this lifetime and more. What fun! I can’t think of a better way to spend my days here on earth. Xo
