This is the real life story of a girl who became a wife and mother and who is trying to seize everyday living under God's grace and by embracing this verse...
"fear not, for I am with you;
be not dismayed, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10
So, here we are, another year later. The second year was so much different than the first. You were just barely walking without assistance by the time you turned one. But before we knew it you were running, letting yourself into all of our rooms, reaching on top of our counters, taking care of dolls, throwing balls for Beaux to fetch, and making all kinds of messes. You were the chill, happy baby who observed everything from a distance—now you’re the toddler who, depending on your mood, is either the belle of the ball of the wall flower. Last year, you didn't talk or even laugh really. Now you are the most talkativekid—no, the most talkative human being on the planet. You go to sleep talking, and you wake up finishing the conversation you started, and you laugh about everything. I mean everything!!!
You have a big personality!! Let’s just say, you know what you want, and when and how you want it. You are very authoritative and communicative—two traits that will make you a great leader in whatever field you decide to have a career in. Even when it gets difficult at times (for us), because you’re still too young to clearly articulate your wants and needs, but old enough to put your foot down (among other things) when you’re not getting them fulfilled, daddy and I are able to take a step back and laugh (most of the time). Laughter is the only way sometimes…
Karma is a funny thing, and I’m pretty sure we both had this coming, but I digress...
You are so much fun to be around; your passion for life is contagious. Take, for example, your love of the outdoors—you want to spend every afternoon at the park "paying" which is why we had your birthday party there, today! It turned out perfect in every way, and you were so happy to see all your friends and family, everyone you love so much. Nothing could've made me happier.
As much as you love Frozen and the YouTube video, Badanamu, there’s no place you’d rather be than outside, at the park, or taking walks around the neighborhood, as long you’re “Outside? Outside? Ouuutsiiiiide!”
You are so independent: We no longer feed you. We no longer have to brush your teeth for you—you insist on brushing your own teeth, with your own toothbrush(es) (as well as ours, too). And now you’re even starting to read books on your own. Your favorite saying is "I got it!"
I am the luckiest and proudest mom of the most beautiful and hilarious two-year-old. Everything I do in life, I do for you. (Please remember that the next time you throw a fit or a toy at my head.) There will be times in your life that you will probably hate me for nudging you or keeping you from doing something you want but please know that I have the best intentions; my job as your mom is to protect you and keep you safe.
My wish for your birthday is that you will stay as sweet as you are today, and happy, and healthy always.
Happy second birthday—I love you more than you’ll ever truly know.
Have you done one of Beachbody’s workout programs, achieved great results, and now are wondering how to become a Beachbody Coach? Maybe you are interested in committing to a workout program AND learn about the business at the same time! That's what I did! I wondered what the hype was all about so I figured, why not? I knew that the worst that could happen is I'd at least get great results from drinking Shakeology and working out!
Beachbody is a wonderful business opportunity for those who are looking for a fulfilling job, or side job, in helping people better their lives. Whether you are looking for some extra income, a full time job, or just getting a 25% discount on all products, you are in the right place! You don't have to be in the best shape of your life. You don't have to be certified in nutrition and fitness. The misconceptions are EVERYWHERE! You just have to have an interest and passion in helping other succeed!
Top 10 Misconceptions about being a Beachbody Coach
Becoming a Beachbody Coach has turned out to be one of the best decisions that I have made. This decision has not only impacted my life, but my family's as well. I am proud to say that as a family we are living a healthy, happy life. As a teacher and entrepreneur, I love that I am able to set my own work hours and put as much or as little effort as I want in to my business. I also love that I am able to make a positive impact on others just for sharing my passion.
Misconceptions about Beachbody Coaching
Encouraging others to take the leap in to growing their own business as a coach is something that I have loved doing with my coaches. Seeing them not only reach out and help others get healthy, but reaching financial goals themselves is amazing! So, as I present this wonderful opportunity to others, I naturally get lots of questions and some push-back from time to time. It is totally understandable because lots of people not only make assumptions, but they are misinformed too! So, what better way to address the common misconceptions that I hear and answer them myself!
1. I don't have the money to become a Beachbody Coach.
This is a pretty common comment that I get when it comes to coaching. The truth is, when you sign up to become a coach you want to MAKE money, not spend it! Within first month of signing up, I was able to comfortably cover the cost of my products (and then some), as well as make my first rank advancement! Each month since my business has steadily grown. At no point have I had to worry about my monthly Shakeology and coach fee investment. Our first goal as a new coach is to cover the cost of your products and then build from there.
2. I am not "fit" enough to be a Coach.
It doesn't matter! I wasn't at my goal weight/size and am still working towards it! Many coaches sign up when they first begin their journey and that's OK! People like to follow others who are going through the same struggles, or have gone through those struggles. It makes tips and advice that much more valuable.
3. I don't have the time to make a Coaching business successful.
The great thing about this business is that you can create your own hours! While this certainly is not a "get rich quick" business, you can start making money fairly quickly. I have a toddler and trust me when I say, she keeps me busy! Many extremely successful coaches have created a six figure income working part time hours, which has now brought them home from their original full time jobs! All of my new coaches have the option to enroll in an online coach apprenticeship group where they learn about time management, tips and techniques to get their businesses up and running. 1:1 support is provided and I match YOUR pace, not mine.
4. Beachbody Coaching is just another Pyramid Scheme!
Boy is this a common one! Everyone always laughs and says what a pyramid scheme coaching is, but honestly, do you REALLY know what a pyramid scheme is? It is actually an illegal business model that requires people to pay money to join but there is no actual product. Beachbody is a network marketing company, which is a business model that has been in existence for many decades! For further information, let CEO Carl Daikeler explain it below.
5. I am not a health and fitness expert.
No problem! Neither am I! All you need is the desire to help others while bettering yourself. The makers of Beachbody products, including trainers like Shaun T, Tony Horton, and Chalene Johnson have included everything you need to know in order to have an amazing transformation! As a coach, I provide the support, motivation, and accountability to successfully guide you through the program.
6. I am not a sales person and wouldn't be good with sales.
Good! Because I'm not a salesperson either! As a coach, I simply share my own story and the stories of others who have had success with Beachbody products. Then, people reach out to me, and I also invite others to give the products a try! It's really no different than recommending your favorite restaurant or even a favorite hair product that you use. In this case, you will earn a 25% commission when anyone you share with decides to purchase.
7. There are too many coaches out there, it's too late for me.
Like any other network marketing company, Beachbody is structured in a way that there is no limit on your earnings. You can even pass up and reach a higher rank than the person that you signed up under. You are not limited to what anyone "above" you is earning. YOU are responsible for your earning potential. I did not get in to the company at an early stage by any means, yet my business has a continual growth.
8. I don't know enough people.
This was a concern that I had when I first started out. I barely had any Facebook friends and there were already Beachbody coaches working at my school. Guess what? It doesn't matter! Sure, I reached out to some friends and family; but, once I got the support that I needed to begin my business through a coach apprenticeship group, I learned more about network marketing, started my blog, and have met more people than I imagined I would. In fact, the majority of my customers are people that I have never met!
9. I don't like to work out at home, I prefer to go to a gym.
Ok so I come across this every now and then. To be honest, I know quite a few Beachbody coaches who do in fact go to the gym. What they do is use Beachbody fitness programs as a supplemental at-home program. Believe it or not, coaching is not all about exercising. It's about living a healthy life which includes eating healthy, too! You don't get that at a gym. So, you don't have to give up your gym fetish to be a coach. You can still use the products, be a product of the product, eat healthy, AND go to the gym!
10. I have no business experience.
My experience is in the field of education, not business. One of the perks about owning your business as a coach is you don't have to worry about inventory. Beachbody handles the processing of orders, returns and exchanges. Like I have said before, what I primarily do is share my experiences. Beachbody takes care of the bulk advertising of products. All I do is use them and share!
I hope that the information that I have provided gives you a little insight to what Beachbody Coaching is all about. If there is a question or misconception that I have not addressed, feel free to send me an e-mail at abmorehead@gmail.com. I'd be more than happy to help!
I've been a Beachbody Coach since January 2016 and am absolutely LOVING IT! I would be glad to talk with you about the amazing endless possibilities that you could have as a Coach! You can also read more HERE!
When I was kid, my parents spent a great deal of time "working in our yard" every Spring and Summer. They also spent time helping my grandmother with her large and beautifully landscaped
lawn. They always had a garden that of course needed work. My sisters and I would run around outside playing, whining, fighting, and just doing what kids do.
When I bought my first house, my mom immediately came over and wanted to start "working in my yard". I was completely against it. I knew what it was going to take from years of experience, and I did not have time for that!!
But as I have bought and sold and moved from house to house over the years, I have come to find that "working in the yard" is one of my favorite pastimes. It is often very challenging. It is physical. Things don't always go or grow they way you had hoped. Your body aches the next day. But there is nothing more rewarding than knowing that you had a hand in offering beauty not only for your own family but every person that passes by.
There is nothing I love more than that feeling in the Spring after a long days work outside, when you come in, get cleaned up, and breathe in the lingering scent of freshly mowed grass. You sit on the porch with your freshly showered hair, drink sweet tea, and bask in your labor.
I didn't realize it then, but my parents were teaching me so much every time they stepped outside to "work in the yard." Things that trickled over into other aspects of my life and made me who I am, today.
Hard work is always worth the effort.
Putting time into things you care about is the most important place to spend your time.
Sometimes we do things, we don't want to do.
The reward of growing your own food.
Taking pride in the gifts that God has blessed us with is a blessing we should treasure.
After a long week of "working in the yard," I can only hope that I am passing these lessons along to Harper. And that one day she will look back and say, "I have the fondest memories of my parents working in the yard."
So you see me hash tagging and posting about my and my challenger's results using the 21 Day Fix, but what is it exactly, and how can it work for you?
What is the 21 Day Fix?
21 Day Fix is a home fitness program that you do for 21 days and it comes with a nutrition plan based on colorful portion control containers. The workouts are 30 minutes long and are a mix of strength and cardio, with a little Pilates and yoga, too. The eating plan is portion controlled using color coordinated containers that you use to plan your meals for the day, no calorie counting involved, and based off clean eating principles.
Who is 21 Day Fix for?
This program is for the beginner to intermediate exerciser. For someone at the advanced level, this program is good for maintenance. It is awesome for anyone trying to learn how to eat cleaner, more nutritious foods, and for anyone who can't stand doing the same workout day after day.
Is this Program worth it?
The 21 Day Fix workout program by Autumn Calabrese was created to help you lose up to 15 lbs in 21 days through simple fitness and simple eating through its portion control eating system and seven, 30-minute workouts each week.
The Pros of the workouts:
The workouts are challenging, but not too challenging.
There are great modifications that allow you to keep working when the moves are a bit above your level (side plank leg lift? Yea... still can't do that one :).
The warm-up and cool-down are a part of the 30 minutes. I appreciate that because I am limited on time.
There is a different workout for each day of the week, so you aren't doing the same moves day in and day out.
Autumn clearly explains and demonstrates each move, and reminds you of the little things to keep tucked and squeezed as you are doing the move (I never remember to keep my belly button pulled in...anyone else have that problem?).
The Pilates and Yoga days offer rest (active recovery) but also a more well-rounded fitness program (they may not be calorie burners, but they focus on your core and flexibility, two very important pieces to overall fitness).
This may not be a pro for everyone, but I like that there is workout everyday. The pilates and yoga allow for an active recovery day, but knowing there is a workout each day keeps me that mindset of daily fitness.
It promises big results (up to 15 pounds in 21 Days) which is totally possible. I have worked with 22 people in the last 2 months and all of them have lost 10-15 pounds plus countless inches.
It's only a 3 week program, so after 3 weeks I can decide if I want to continue or try something new without the guilt of giving up 3 weeks into a 12 week program.
The Cons of the workouts:
Between each move is about a 20 second rest, which is sometimes not enough, so I have to hit pause for an extra 20...or so :)
It's only a 3 week program (uh Brooke...didn't you list that a pro?) Yes, but some people want a longer program than 3 weeks.
It costs money...WHAT?!? Yes, you do have to pay for the program (but in my opinion your return on investment is well worth the cost).
The Pros of the nutrition plan:
No calorie counting.
Ensures you eat a balance diet.
Based on clean eating principles.
Once you get the hang of it, meals are simple and easy.
You still get to eat real food, food your family will enjoy too.
There is a lot of variety in the food choices.
You don't have to give up a food group.
The Cons of the nutrition plan:
At first, it's not easy to master the container system.
It is hard to change your mindset to the idea that eating nutritious does not mean eating salad and bland foods.
What I didn't expect to get out of the program
When you think of fitness programs like 21 Day Fix you think about the 30 minutes you spend working out. You think about the weight you might lose, the muscle definition you may gain, or maybe even or the endorphine high that you get after workouts.
Yes, those things happened for me as expected, but what I didn't expect was to learn how much food has affected my life all these years, or to fall in love with working out. Yes I know that very poor nutrition and inconsistent fitness have been taking a toll on my body, but I didn't know the positive effects real food and daily fitness have on your body. I am talking beyond weight loss.
I sleep better.
I feel better physically.
I feel better emotionally.
I feel better mentally.
I have more energy everyday.
I don't feel lethargic day to day.
I am more positive and optimistic.
I am happier.
I learned how addicting processed foods can be and how they alter your taste buds. I have always wondered how people can just turn down certain foods, like ice cream, cake, chips, french fries, oreos, etc. Well I guess I still don't know how some people seems to do it so naturally, because some days it is still very hard for me. But I am learning that as you start to eat foods that make you feel good, inside and out, real natural foods, you stop wanting the foods that are just a quick high. Those foods that leave you feeling worse and leave you wanting. I thought those foods were comforting me, when really there were just a drug. The only thing they did was make me crave them more, nothing else, yet somehow they convinced me for so many years that they would make any emotion better.
I learned that I wasn't even close to a eating balanced diet, but following the 21 Day Fix Meal plan has really helped change that. It has helped me learn how to eat better, what are good choices to eat, and how to make clean eating easy and delicious! Not only that, but eating real foods fill me up so much more than any processed food ever did. I eat less now, not because I am restricting my calories, but because I am full!
Working out everyday helped me learn the value of daily fitness. I NEVER thought I would like "exercise." NEVER!! I feel SO much better after my morning workout and on days I miss it, I can tell, and I feel worse! Even missing the yoga day makes me ache for my workouts! I was never like that before this program but 21 Day Fix has made me fall in love with fitness! Now I make sure I can fit my workout into my schedule everyday!
The Final Verdict
The program changed my mindset on my own lifestyle and was the catalyst for finally making the healthy changes I have been wanting and trying to make for so long. I highly, highly recommend this program!
So you're thinking of herb gardening! But you have a brown thumb, or you've tried it before, and it was a disaster. This is my 6th year of planting herbs. Sometimes they do well and sometimes they don't, but there are some common mistakes I have found that I want to share with you.
Fresh herbs are one of the greatest ways to increase the taste of your food healthfully. There is nothing more rewarding to me than to walk outside, cut a few herbs or vegetables from plants that I grew, and use them to prepare delicious meals for my family.
I love researching things all the time, but when it comes to herb gardening most of the articles are all fancy and not practical for me at least. They suggest only watering with warm water, on a certain day, at a certain time, etc. I've tried it, and quite frankly I've been the most successful when I treated them like I do all my other plants. Plenty of sunshine, water, and little interference from me.
Mistake 1: Growing from seed. When you first start out trying to grow fresh herbs, I recommend you begin by trying to grow from seedlings (there are plenty at Lowes) rather than planting your own seeds. The process is tedious and slow. The seedlings grow quickly which means you can begin to enjoy your herbs faster.
Mistake 2: Starting with the wrong varieties. I recommend you start by trying to grow fresh basil. It is the perfect trainer herb. It grows quickly, and the leaves wilt visibly when not watered enough, but recover well if you water the wilted plant. This makes basil a great ‘canary in the mineshaft’ to help you figure out how much water is enough.
Mistake 3: Lack of watering. Herbs need to be watered everyday. They need to be thoroughly soaked on hot summer days.
Mistake 4: Not cutting early and often. It may seem like your puny little plant just isn't ready for a trip to the barber, but then you will find yourself sitting there wishing for leaves without much success. Again, basil is a great herb to practice pruning. As with all herbs, you want to cut the herb just above a set of growing leaves. If you don’t trim basil aggressively, it will continue to grow straight up, and become too tall and top-heavy. Making your first trim approximately 3-4” above the soil produces a nice sturdy plant.
Mistake 5: Taking the leaves from the wrong place. Leave those large tough old leaves at the bottom alone. They are the solar panels that power your herb's growth. Once your plant is big enough to sustain a decent harvest, keep on taking from the top, as you have been when you were pruning. That way you get all those tender new herbs that are so tasty, and your plant gets to keep its well developed solar power system in place.
Mistake 6: Letting your plants get too randy. If you are pruning regularly, this may never become an issue, but unless you are growing something for its edible flowers, be sure to cut back herbs before they start growing flowers. If you want leaves, keep cutting off the little flower buds whenever you find them, and it will encourage your plant to focus on growing more leaves.
Mistake 7: Using tired soil with no nutrients. Tired soil that has been sitting in your garden or lawn for ages often looks grey and a little depressing. Would you want to grow in that stuff? Give your plants a dose of the good stuff and they'll thank you for it. I grow my herbs in a combination of potting soil, used coffee grounds, and egg shells. If I have some on hand, I also throw in crushed egg shells.
Mistake 8: Getting in a rut. In order to be good at herb gardening, you need to feel rewarded. So don't stick too long with one or two herbs just because they work. Branch out to a few other basic herbs that you will use regularly in your kitchen. Once you have become comfortable with basil, I recommend moving on to try growing oregano, mint, rosemary and thyme. All are useful herbs in the kitchen, and all are relatively easy to grow.
Mistake 9: You mean there's more than one kind of mint?When choosing herbs, read the label carefully. For example, there are two main varieties of oregano: Mediterranean and Mexican. Mediterranean oregano is the more common variety, and what you likely own if you have conventional dried oregano in your cupboard. I have Mexican (hot and spicy) oregano growing in my garden. I love Mexican oregano in spicy dishes, for making beans from scratch, and often use it in tomato dishes where I don't want the flavor to seem too much like marinara. Similarly, there are many different kinds of mint. You don't want to be thinking of the pungent spearmint plant and accidentally take home the much more subtle (and not mojito savvy) applemint by mistake.
Mistake 10: Feed me Seymour! If you are planting in soil instead of pots, take care that your cute little herb seedling doesn't become a giant plant that takes over your garden. A word of warning for oregano and mint: both can be voracious growers.
Shakeology has been a life saving fitness and wellness tool for me and Wes in this journey to lose weight and take control of our health. When Wes first started trying to lose weight this past summer, he enrolled in an intense outdoor fitness bootcamp. He really thought he could manage his eating habits and exercise and still reach his goals. After 90 days of working out and eating pretty healthy, he had only lost 8 pounds and was not happy with his results.
After a few discussions with MY Beachbody Coach, we decided to give Shakeology a try. After researching and reading all the information on the Shakeology website, we decided to try the variety pack to figure out which flavors we liked the most. The chocolate is by far our FAVE, but we love how versatile the vanilla is. I also decided to become a Beachbody coach at the same time to get the 25% discount on the products. I was so early in my transformation, but I knew that I could help other people do the same thing. We received our Shakeology order, and our first shake we just mixed with water and ice in a blender like the package says. It was NOT good. We were like, what have we gotten into? The next try, we used soy milk, peanut butter, and a banana. Talk about delicious. It was dessert for breakfast. We've gotten better at mixing the shakes, and we literally don't want to go a day without them. Each shipment contains a calendar of 30 ways to mix Shakeology. We love trying new recipes.
Shakeology helped Wes lose the 22lbs, and I gained abs (real abs) in 21 days! We drink our shakes for breakfast or a snack on the weekends. You can make it and drink it whenever and however you like. Here is a little background on Shakeology to help you make a better informed decision.
Shakeology is more nutritious than a salad and tastes like a dessert!
What is Shakeology?
Shakeology is a nutritional protein shake that provides a wide spectrum of healthy nutrients in a low-calorie formula. Whether you use it as a meal replacement for weight loss or simply to ensure your body gets all the nutrients it needs for optimal health, Shakeology takes the guesswork out of nutrition.
What's in it?
Shakeology contains over 70 ultra high-quality ingredients conveniently located in one glass, to deliver nearly all the nutrients you need to maintain a healthy diet. It's good for you, and good for everyone, because everyone's diet is deficient in some of the key nutrient groups packed into just one Shakeology serving.
Protein from whey, which is highly absorbable, gives you 8 essential amino acids that help you build muscle, lose weight, support brain function, and keep your skin and bones healthy.
Vitamins and minerals support optimum health.
Antioxidants boost the immune system and help reduce free radical damage that can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, blood pressure, and stroke.
Phytonutrients support immune function and have anti-inflammatory properties.
Probiotics support digestive and immune health.
Digestive enzymes help in the digestion of foods and increase the absorption rate of those foods for optimum health. What can Shakeology do for you?
It is an effective way to help you lose weight, increase your energy and be the healthiest you can possibly be. Shakeology can help you reduce cravings and promote healthy digestion and regularity. Shakeology reccomends that you replace one meal per day with a shake along with regular exercise and a balanced diet, participants who did this experienced remarkable health improvements. It can reduce your total cholesterol, reduce LDL cholesterol, reduce cardiovascular risk, and reduce oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
Why Shakeology?
I love Shakeology because I am a busy parent, wife, and teacher, and it is a quick and convenient way to get complete nutrition. It supplies me with the energy I need to help keep up with the kids and my hectic lifestyle. It is also easier to make and tastier than a salad, and it is an excellent way to eat healthy when eating a full meal is not possible. If you don't like eating fruits and vegetables then this is a great way to get all the benefits of eating a full bowl of fruits and vegetables without having to actually eat them. If you have high cholesterol then this will help you lower total and LDL as well.
How to use it.
It's very simple.
Mix 1 scoop of Shakeology with 8 oz. of soy milk. If you like, add ice. Or if you want something more filling and maybe even more satisfying, blend your Shakeology with fruit, veggies, peanut butter, the possibilities are endless. Shakeology dissolves easily, but blending it will give it a thicker, creamier texture. Honestly, when I make my shakeology I always add more than 8 ounces because I think it's too thick! The more liquid you add the thinner it gets!! :)
Ways to try Shakeology:
1. Message me for a sample of Shakeology either Vanilla or Chocolate.
2. You can purchase a week's worth of samples from me to try out Shakeology and see if its the right fit for you for $44.
3. You can purchase a Shakeology cleanse for $55 to jump start your weight loss program or break a plateau.
4. You can sign up for Shakeology HD (home direct) which gives your free shipping and automatically ships your Shakes to you each month. You can cancel at any time with no questions asked. There is also a 30 day money back bottom of the bag guarantee. If for any reason you do not like the shake you can return the empty bag for a full refund.
5. You can purchase Shakeology in the bag or 24 individual serving sizes, both are the same price. With individual serving sizes you can have an assortment of Greenberry and Chocolate, Chocolate and Vanilla, and Tropical Strawberry, Vanilla, and Chocolate, and now Vegan Chocolate, Strawberry, or Vanilla.
What do you get for your purchase of Shakeology HD?
Your first Shakeology order not only comes with a month's supply of shakeology.
You receive a calendar of 30 different ways to make each flavor.
You receive free shipping when you sign up for Home Direct.
You not only get a shake but you get a nutrient rich meal that you do not have to worry about creating yourself!
Yep, this is my birthday week, and birthday weeks usually get me to thinking about where I have been, where I am at, and where I am going.
I have had some pretty awesome birthdays in my life. As a kid my mom always made sure our "day" was super special and celebrated all the things we loved. I was pretty spoiled on birthdays because even on Angela's and Jessica's birthday, I usually got my own cake! This, however, was not my mothers doing, but the lady who baked our cakes that we affectionately called Aunt Faye.
You probably remember my surprise 30th birthday celebration. That is one that will definitely go down in history as one of the most fun weekends ever! You can read about it here.

So where am I now with only 6 days left until I turn 35? This week at school we had a guest speaker, and he talked about how all of his life his father emphasized the importance of "being a man" and his progression of understanding what that meant in his life. He broke it down into three points calling, commitment, and contentment. His words really resonated with me.
We are all "called" to do something great! Great varies in size and shape and action from person to person, but we are still called to do something great. I know for myself that a lot ,if not most, of the time, I sit in park with my ignition on idle just accepting what comes my way and going with the flow. This is not all bad, but to do something great, I've got to get moving.
I have set BIG financial freedom goals for my family this year. I am taking as many small steps a day as possible to get there. A commitment is an agreement that your heart and mind make to dedicate time and energy to doing something great! I am committed to being better today than I was yesterday in all aspects of my life. It is easier said than done because sometimes, today, kicks my ass!
I am content in know that even the things that seem small to me can make a great big difference to someone else like Wes or Harper. A smile, a hug, a simple encouragement can change someone's day.
So here's to being content in my commitment to doing great things in chapter 35 of my life. Cheers!
