Don't forget those nails

Buying clothes can make a whole in your budget real fast, so if you don't want to feel like you are wearing the same thing over and over and over again, invest in accessories.

Necklaces, earnings, sun shades, shoes, purses, bangles all of those are super fun to mix and match to get a whole new look. 


Lately nails have been my go to accessories.

 I just love a pop of color.



I just love that you can wear something simple like jeans ans t-shirt but having your nails done, give you the feeling that your outfit is more complete. 

Here are a few of my favorite shades for spring

Better then therapy

Just half an hour away....

To have sand between our toes


To smell that salty air and hear the waves crash on the shore


To see some beautiful sunset


We should do this more often.

The full experience of motherhood

Am I the only one that is noticing that motherhood has been having a bad reputation.

Things like this seen on pinterest or facebook are all over the place

link to this quote here

I agree, motherhood isn't the easiest calling, but wait is there any job that is "easy". 

Like any other job description, motherhood have a long list of duties are are sometime icky. Remember the time all of your kids got the flue at the SAME time and your whole house smelled like puke, your laundry machine wanted to take a break, and when you had to get out of bed so many time that you lost count thinking "I did not sign up for this"
Found this on fb, can't find the direct link to this picture, sorry.

How about the fighting, bickering and the whining, they do not make you "feel good" because they are sometime never ending and you can't cross the "end a fight and they never fought ever again" on your to do list.

True, motherhood is a never ending job, that has is moment of grossness, and don't forget those sleepless nights. 

But

There is always a but...

Without motherhood, you would never know

  • What unconditional love feels like, understanding the love of our Father  
  • How love does not divided itself, but  how it multiplies
  • How amazing a growing life is
  • How sinful you are, because they do tend to mirror our actions don't they!


And

Yes, there is also a and...

Without motherhood, you might forget

  • The freedom that comes when playing games, using imagination. How it melts the stress away.
  • How pretty and fun blowing bubbles can be.
  • How amazing our surrounding is. Kids are closer to the grounds, they see things that we might not notice, and they sure love to share their discoveries. 
  • How about those silly songs, cartoons and candies that we enjoyed in our youth, without kids we might not have the opportunities of having a second chance of experiencing them all over again.


Overall, motherhood isn't so bad, isn't it?

How about you, what are the up and down motherhood is teaching you right now?
