Tuesday morning!

Today I would like to share how important it is to treat people the way that you want to be treated. and setting goals and purpose in our life. I wake up everyday thinking to myself today is going to be a Great Day, and spreading that Joy to everyone I come in contact with in the day. Yesterday was my daughters Friends Birthday, and she stayed the night with us. My Daughter wanted to take her rafting with us since it was her Birthday, and she had never been rafting before. I said to my daughters friend arent you going to have a birthday party this year, and she said no not this year because my mom is remodeling the kitchen, so she said I cant have one this year. Can you even believe what message she is sending to her daughter. She is saying the kitchen remodel, and her needs are more important then her daughters birthday. Devaluing her daughter, not even willing to have the party somewhere else. The only reason I am bringing this up is to give you an example of the lesson, Im talking about today. I feel that is a huge lesson to teach our kids. Sometimes in life things dont always just fall into place like we think they should. We as Mothers, and leaders of our home have to create happy positive memories for our familys. The more you do this the happier, you are and your family are going to be. By taking good care of myself, I can create a positive outlook on life. It takes work treating people the way that you want to be treated. The more you do it, the easier it gets. Focus on the positive, and stay away from negativity. Your kids will watch you as a positive role model and will get it. They are like a sponge. If you have a negative person in your life Try focusing on the good about them not the bad, and start writing about there good qualities, and see if that makes a difference. Keep High Vibrations even when your around one of the people in your life that loves gossip , and is always talking negative about someone You know. We all have at least one like that in our life. For me its my Mother. I cant remember the last time she talked about anyone nice she always thinks everyones out to get her, and steal from her. The energy we put out is what we attract. We have the power to create a happy family, and a happy life. Have a Amazing day today do something good for yourself and others.

Monday morning.

Monday mornings come far to soon, After having three days off. Im awake once again kids are sleeping after there big fun filled weekend of riding in small planes at the Richland Airport, Swimming, and going to a car show. It seems like we seem to pack in as much as possible on the weekends. We like to keep them busy on the weekends, and get the Boys off the Computer, that seems to be there favorite pass time. This Morning I am in my office focusing on who I need to call to set appts for today, and again enjoying the Quiet time while I can. I can hardly believe that June is almost over. Where has this Month gone. It seems the older I get the months just fly by. I took my fourteen yr old son to the doctor last week for a sinus infection and he is 5"10 and 130pounds. He is taller them me now. I am 5"7. It is amazing how they grow up so fast and get so tall. I am so grateful that I work from home. I get to be a fulltime mom. One day soon they will be off at College. I get to look back at all the pictures, and memories, and have no regrets. I got to rase them which is a Wonderful Gift. You Too can create Wonderful memories with your kids and stay home.

Thursday

I took my kids to the river yesterday with are Rafts I thought that would be a fun thing for them to do. My fourteen yr old son and his friend decided to go way out in the deap area were the big boats go and managed to go way under the snake river bridge with the flow of the current. I could no longer see him and his friend so I new he would not be able to paddle his way back to us because he was going against the current. So I hiked up to where him and his friend were under the snake river bridge, and sure enough they were struggling to get back because they would paddle and then they would get to a certain spot, and the current kept pushing them back. I hiked down to the water and got them to grab on to me and they got out. I pulled the Raft out of the water, and we hiked back up under the bridge and put the raft to the dock so they could paddle back to us were the current was not as strong. So needless to say my son and his friend learned a valuable lesson not to try to paddle against a stong current without a motor boat. I guess he thought he had the power of our big Bayliner. They stayed close to us after that there is a big designated swimming area with rope all around it, so they stayed in that area for the most part, and we had lots of fresh food and fun.

wednesday morning

Yesterday was Great. I turned the big 40. I look back when I was younger and I remember thinking Wow 40 is so old. Now that Im here I do not feel old at all. Infact I feel Great. I think 40 is the new 20. I guess it depends on how you take care of yourself on the other hand I also have a friend that just turned 40 too, and she has already had a heart attack. She smokes and drinks alot. I want to stay Fit and healthy for as long as possible. I feel like 40s are going to be fabulous. Im alot smarter and less of a people pleaser. I no what I want and Im not afraid to go for it. Im more secure in myself. I stand up for what I believe in and surround myself with Positive people. I do not have time for negative thinkers. Positive creates Positive Negative creates Negative. The more I focus on Positive living I have no stress, and if you have no stress in your life then you have no health problems, and everything just seems to flow smoother in your life. What ever you put your intention Energy, and focus on is what you create in your life. I am loving the Farmers Market I have been loading up with fresh fruit and veggies for me and my family We are all feeling Fit and Fabulous. Of course dont forget to workout everyday, at least a good walk whatever you can fit in it makes you feel so much better, Oh and make sure you Laugh.

Monday morning.

I survived another week with children home for summer Break. It seems like once the kids have been home two weeks everything just seems to fall into place. Yesterday was Fathers day, and the Day was very peaceful and relaxing. I made lots of great meals, and we went bowling. We love to bowl as a family. Lots of laughter as we seem to at least hit a couple gutter balls. Just having quality family time is Great. My husband got his sexy new glasses he wanted, and fishing liscense of course. My daughter the party planner that she is had to have the party in the backyard office, all decorated of course. We made a chocolate cake, and cookies and cream ice cream to go with it. Today the weather is very windy and overcast right now so we will see what the weather brings for later to see if my kids can swim. My kids think they are fish, they love to swim every second of everyday. They seem to be living in there swimsuits now everyday. I am so very grateful to have these memories with them, and that they are not at some camp all summer long, or daycare.I love waking up and knowing I get to spend everyday with them. No one can love your kids like you can. I really enjoy watching them grow and change right before my eyes. I feel like the happiest mom in the world. I challenge you to take a look at your life today and see if your living out your purpose, If not make a change today. Follow your peace.

Thursday

Good morning. Today I want to talk about how important it is to take care of yourself. When I first had my kids I had them very close together, and nobody can tell you what it is going to be like to be a mom you have learn as you go alone. It is a learning proccess. I feel like there needs to be a healthy balance between being a good mom, and taking care of yourself. So what I have learned through this being a mom thing. In order to be a good mom you have to first takecare of yourself. Being selfish with yourself is self care. If you fall apart what good are you to yourself or your family. The more I learned this the healthier and Happier I am. I look back at my mom, and her decisions and choices she made while we were growing up. She chose alcohol, and so did my dad. It was her way out to eliviate her own childhood pain. She never excercised and always felt tired and cranky. This is a prime example of how not taking care of yourself can lead to disaster. To this day she is an alcoholic, and never sees her grandkids. So on a happier note I would like all of you moms and dads to really think about yourself more. Put yourself at the top of the list every morning. Pick healthy meal choices workout at least three times a week shoot for five. Go to your local farmers market load up on healthy fruits and vegies for the week. keep fresh fruit out for your children to enjoy. I keep a big bowl of fresh fruit on my dinning room table, and all day long my kids grab and eat. It works wonderful. Stop buying pop and junk. I have a juicer, and I juice for myself and kids. Would it be great to wake up and feel good everyday. You can its your choice. So if anyone is wanting to be healthier start today you are the leader of your home, and if not now when. Live life to its fullest.

wednesday morning

Good morning. I decided this week I would write about everything that goes on on a daily basis, on the life of a stay at home mom of three kids. I can tell you there is never a dull moment, that is for sure, and when you have two boys a one girl being the baby of them it gets very interesting. My oldest son is a teenager and he likes nights as all teenagers do so he stays up late and sleeps in. my middle son is still on the School schedule so he goes to bed around ten and wakes up at 7:00am, and my daughter the same way. I wanted to talk about the differences of my children today in case any of you are going through the same thing. My oldest son and my middle son are just happy being home doing the chores they need to do and hanging out on the computer, and playing the wii. my middle child has decided it is nice just to stay in his pajamas. he did finally get his swim shorts on yesterday and went swimming. Thank god and had a friend come over. My Daughter on the other hand has to have something going all the time. she does not like to just hang out. She plans things to do on a daily basis all day long and wants no down time at all. She has her bag organized for every activity we do and packs for everyone in the family, and always knows excatly what we all need. So for are weekend trips she is great. So as you can see the life of a working stay at home mom gets very interesting. Making my boys get out of the house, and trying to talk my daughter into just relaxing is a challenge.

Tuesday morning

Coffee is brewing, Husband off to work kids sleeping. I love my mornings it to me is the most peaceful time of the day. I love to get up early and have the alone time, to help get the day started peacefully. It allows me to be a better wife and mother. I start of course with my Graditude Journal I have so much to be thankful for. Im siting on my outside patio and the sound of the birds is amazing. Ilove to wake up to it. It seems to also set the tone for a good day. I have some called and appts this morning with my business, and once that is done I always like to do some type of workout in my basement gym. My daughter is always up by then, Ifind that she always has are day planned with lots of activities. she loves to stay busy, where as my boys not so much they are content just doing there chores and playing on the computer and just kinda hanging out most days. My husaband and I always have Friday, saturday, and Sunday off every week so thats when we take family trips , boating, camping, fishing all of that good stuff. Then after we do activities in the afternoon time to plan something wonderful for dinner to have a healthy well balanced meal. Then my husband comes home and we eat dinner together and take a long walk and have lots of good family time. This gives you an example of how most of our summer goes.

Monday morning!

Today I woke up at 4:00am to start my day while my kids sleep,and packed my husbands lunch. Went to my office and started my work day. I could here the birds singing, the sprinklers going on as they do early in the morning. I Start my Graditude Journal as I do every morning. I am so thankful for all that I have. I feel such a sense of peace as I start the day this way. It makes me feel as if I can do and accomplish anything. I work from home so that aslo is a peaceful place to be in for me it allows me the flexibility I want for my family. If you have ever wanted to work from home and not sure how to get started please contact me. http://momswantmore.com/ursula I wish you all a great peaceful day!

positive living!

Today was a great Day! I have learned alot about the power of positive thinking, and how powerful words are. It is great to wake up and start the day with a Graditude journal. Even if things are not going the way you think they should, Focus on everything Positive you can think of. You will learn to smile more and put yourself at the top of the list. you know the saying if moms are not happy no one is. I encourage all of you to stay positive it really works. If you have a bad day brush it off and start again tomorrow. Surround yourself with like minded positive people. Check your Vibration daily as we learn in law of attraction, And please donot lower yours for anyone. Have a great day! http://momswantmore.com/ursula

School is almost out for the summer.

Today I am feeling like my quiet alone time is almost over, since next week is the last week of School . I decided to write everyday and talk to other mothers about my life as being a stay at home working mom. there is many memories that I want to create by doing this, and also know other mothers you are not alone. I feel your pain with summer approaching. All of a sudden the grocery bill rises, meal prep becomes more and more, and If you have differnt age kids you have night owls, and ones that go to bed at normal time. some that get up early and others that sleepin. So your schedule gets messed up because all of a sudden you got your kids taking over your excercise, and quiet time. So we learn as moms to set are bounderies early.
