Just a What?

Hi Moms:

When I strike up a conversation with a lady at the grocery store and ask her, "So what do you do?", then she says, "I'm just a Mom", it makes me cringe. Just a Mom; are you kidding!   Moms have a purpose. Moms impact the future of our next generation. Moms have the most important jobs in the world! Remember how your Mom affected your life?  Moms have power!

Children See - Children Do

Hi Moms:

Our children are great observers.  And as a Mom, you know they will follow our actions; sometimes even closer than they follow our words. When we tell our children not to tell a lie, but then ask them to tell a caller on the phone we aren't home, what's a child to think?  We are our children's first teacher. What are you teaching your children?

Take a Deep Breath

Hi Moms:

Let's be honest. Life can cause us to lose our temper! Bumper to bumper traffic, Bosses, Bullies! Everything isn't perfect and real people have real emotions. So when those emotions happen - take a walk, count to 100 or eat some chocolate. And when the issues are more serious, talk to your Pastor, see a Counselor or talk to a close friend. Find a way back to your peaceful place.

Happy Martin Luther King Day!

Hi Moms:

Many of us are celebrating the vision of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. today.  Dr. King was a man of purpose and service, who sacrificed his life for a better America.  So begin today to find your purpose.   Find ways to impact your home, your church or your community. Serve not just for today, but for a lifetime!

Happy 2014!

Hi Moms:

For many of us, a New Year is a time for New Beginnings.  With the number of family members I lost in 2013, I’m ready to step into a new season.  But before we Renew, Replace or Retire, I’m encouraging you to Remember.

1.        Remember you survived the trials of your past.

2.        Remember you are loved.

3.        Remember you still have a purpose.

So get ready for a great year!

Surprise!

Hi Mom:
Let’s be honest, life is full of surprises and sometimes those surprises can cause us to lose our temper.  Think of your day – bumper to bumper traffic, bosses, bullies.  Everything isn’t perfect and real people have real emotions.  But if we want to survive and enjoy life, we must find ways to handle negative emotions.  Take a walk, count to 100, eat chocolate. If it’s a more serious issue, talk to your Pastor, a Counselor or a close friend.  Find ways to get back to a peaceful place.
