Vision Boards and the Power of Gratitude
Are We There Yet? How many time do kids ask.. “Are we there yet?” “Are we there yet?” and we get so exasperated with that incessant question, don’t we?

Artistic Mother Vision Board

Last Day of the Ultimate Blog Challenge
How did I go? Well, I didn’t manage to make a post a day as I had intended, but 22 out of 31 isn’t too bad! I had an unexpected interstate trip in the middle of the challenge and was not able to access the internet for a few days… so that slowed me down a [...] -
