Helping Eachother

Hi Moms:

As a seasoned Mom, not a perfect Mom, I feel pretty confident in my parenting skills.  I may not always make the right decisions (just ask my daughters) or manage my household with perfection.  But despite some exhaustive days and sleepless nights, I have the satisfaction in knowing I've done the best job I know how. And I may have this sense of confidence because I had a great Mom and some wonderful Mentors, who held my hand and gave me advice as I struggled in my new role of being a Mom.

And as we learn and mature, we should do the same thing for our younger Moms.  Scripture in the book of Titus says, more experienced Moms are suppose to teach and encourage our younger Moms; show them how to take care of their families.

Find a Mom you can mentor or seek one who you can gain some knowledge.  Build confidence to begin some Mentoring Moments.

Enjoy Your Life!

Hi Moms:
Back in the day I remember the song, Girls Just Want to Have Fun!  In the music video, quirky entertainer Cyndi Lauper belts out the catchy tune, joined by energetic girls, dancing and bopping to the beat!  Girls of all shapes, sizes and shades are enjoying themselves; young and silly and sassy.
Sounds like many of us before children. But now many of us have forgotten that carefree attitude.
That doesn't mean we live without purpose or direction, but when was the last time you had fun; laughing so hard until you cried?  Too often Moms forget that life should be fun too; not just busy and boring.  God wants us to have a good life.
So turn off the cell phone and turn on the CD; dance around the room with your husband and kids or just party by yourself!  You deserve a silly moment too, cause - Moms Still Need to Have Fun!

For Auld Langs Syne?

Hi Moms:
As we begin a Blessed New Year, for many of us, it's time for a fresh start:  Starting that diet (again), learning a new skill, beginning a new career.  As we make new plans, let's also think about the old things we've left behind, like old relationships from year's gone by. Every year I promise to reconnect with my childhood friends and reminisce about the  "good old days".  There have been times when I've finally found an old phone number, reached out to that friend, and sadly discovered it's too late, and that friend has passed away. So I encourage you in 2016 to seek those friends, playmates, even family members who you haven't spoken too in a long time, for Auld Langs Syne.

Say Something

Hi Moms:
My daughter asked me:  Why do so many bad people share their negative opinions so boldly, while some good people never say anything?
My answer: I don't know.
When was the last time you stood up for a cause; rejected a racist joke someone shared; stood alone on an issue supported by the majority?
The Good People must learn to speak up and share our views even when they aren't popular. If we don't speak up, the rocks are going to cry out!

Words Have Power

Hi Moms:
I've been told:
Watch your thoughts, they become words; watch your words, they become actions; watch your actions, they become habits; watch your habits, they become character; watch your character, for it becomes your destiny. - Author Unknown

Planning Ahead

Hi Moms:

Many of us know how to earn money and spend money, but we have challenges saving money! So if you struggle with money management, get advice from a professional. A financial planner can educate you on ways to budget as you build your families nest egg.  So learn to share, spend and save your money. It could make your financial future a lot brighter.

Truly Appreciated

Hi Moms:
All  of us have days where we don't know our value. No one said thanks when you served breakfast. Your boss didn't praise you for your outstanding presentation. Your children didn't help wash the dishes after dinner.  But Proverbs 31:29 says: "There are many virtuous and capable women in the world, but you surpass them all!" Your value isn't measured day to day; your value is forever!
