First of all I would like to say an early Happy Mother’s day to all the moms out there!  It seems like so many people I know are having babies!
It is really so amazing to see some of my friends giving birth or getting pregnant, I guess it must be something in the air!

I give all those moms out there SO much credit because I don’t know how you guys do it!!! Also a special shout out to MY mom who is the best, most amazing mom any one could ever ask for.

I think Mom’s don’t get enough credit. All the things that come with the job (see this video)
And barely a thank you some times. The only time people notice is when you are NOT there.  It’s a hard gig but pretty much the most important job in the world so Thank you Mom, and Mom’s everywhere! You are appreciated! I love you!!!!

I remember all of the amazing times we had, from decorating arts and crafts to creating themed birthday parties with my mom and sister. My mom always encouraged us to be creative, never stop thinking, and to grow and live our dreams.  My mom always told me I can be ANYTHING I want to be, and I believed her! If you feel like you take your mom for granted, remember you are lucky to have her in your life because some people don’t!

Mom’s harness growth and spring is a time of growth and rebirth. A time of spring cleaning, of renewing and it’s especially appropriate that we celebrate the spring holidays with family.

Passover is this week and Easter is upon us.  It really is such a special time to be with family and share in the renewal of these holidays and moments.

Take the time these few weeks to slow down, enjoy family, enjoy the changing of the season and take a look at your big picture.

Now is the time to plan and reorganize how YOU and your business will grow.  Make it anything you want, but figure out the steps to growth that are right for you!

An early Happy First Mother’s day to my friends Val, Kerry, Meital, Jaime and a happy Mother’s day to all of the other moms out there (especially Mine!) !!!

We are growing over here on the blog, and the etsy shop. We just got a fresh spring look – up on the etsy shop- check it out here.
