Hear Me Roar!: I hope all the Mama's had a very happy Mother's Day! Let's just face it, it's the hardest job you've ever had and you deserve to be celebrated!
I didn't feel quite this confident the week leading up to Mother's Day and made a great decision to allow myself to go see the movie Moms' Night Out with another stressed out mama. It is amazing how much the movie was able to change my perspective by adding comedy to something that I was not aware was SOOOOO difficult to so many other women (I mean questioning your happiness difficult.) Check out why this movie is so necessary if you find yourself on this same crazy train.
Reflection of the Week: The Month of Mary
"Okay, so she was the mother of Jesus, I get it.
She was chosen and did her job.
Move on."
Um, back that train up!
I wanted to create something fun and floral to decorate for spring.
Merging the burlap and the bright quilted floral gives the basket a unique and interesting design.
The feathers add an optional flare in jazzing up the final touch.

The movie was apropos and much needed at this point (or any point I am sure) in Mommyhood. My friend, who has four kids, and I just sat there nodding and laughing as we watched a mockery of our lives unfold on screen. This was truly a case of art imitating life, and laughter is the best medicine! Continue.
As I reached in and allowed my hand to somehow read the papers, I was sure that the one I grasped was meant for me. In excitement I opened it hoping to read the words Jamaica, Belize, Honduras, Haiti, or Ecuador. Instead, the words staring back at me were The Bronx. “The Bronx of New York?” I said in a disappointed and questioning voice. They had to be kidding. Continue.
If someone served me my coffee each morning with funny faces drawn on it...Continue.
I'm kinda out of the loop, and hadn't heard about Mom's Night Out. But now I MUST get a few friends together and go see it - I need some stress relief ASAP!
