Change

It's been awhile since I've written. 

I was unable to find the right words to put here. 

A lot has changed in my life, and still is changing everyday. 

I try to remain positive and happy, some days are easier than others. Eventually I won't have to try, I'll just be positive and happy all day everyday. 

Since I've been on my own, I have come to some conclusions. 

1. People will do what they have to do for THEMSELVES. Even if that means hurting other people. 

2. When you love someone so deeply, don't forget to love yourself more. It's hard finding yourself after a break up if you don't.

3. Always have a smile on your face, even when you don't feel like it. 

4. Always pray for others, especially for the ones who have hurt you the most. Those people must be so hurt inside that they lash out on the people who loves them the most and would do anything for them.

5. Realize that you'll never do anything right in the eyes of someone who wants to only see what they want to be.

6. Learn from the above statement, and don't be that person. Always see the good in people, even if they've done so much bad. Someone has to believe in them. There is so much bad in this world, be the small glimmer of light in someone's world. 

7. Find a house of God that makes you feel closer to God. Without God these past couple of months, I don't know where I would be. I was going down a dark path until He showed me that I'm worthy of greatness. Thank you God!

8. Find a rhythm that works for you. Don't take on too much, or else you'll burn yourself out. And go out every once in awhile. It's a great way to relieve stress. I went out this past weekend with some girlfriends, and was able to laugh so hard like I haven't done in a long time. Also grilled chicken pitas are amazing!

9. It's ok to ask for help. I've had to learn this. I shut everyone out and have finally let people in and asked for help. Even with the smallest problem from my homework. 

10. Final thing I've learned is, that I NEED to LEARN how to cook. Haha poor kiddos have to go through a lot of trial and error. YouTube and pinterest are always going while I'm in the kitchen haha.

Anywho, I'm still going through a lot of transitioning and slowly but surely I'll become who I've always wanted to be.

If you could take anything from this post, please take the following:

Always be kind to others whether you think they deserve it or not. You never know how much that bit of kindness will mean to that person. Also whatever is meant to be, it'll be. Don't force anything to work. 

I hope and pray that y'all  have a wonderful day. I'm rooting for y'all!!

Selfishness

Many things have changed in my life recently.

 

I've moved, totaled my car, dealing with a shady guy who sold me a shady car, chopped off my hair, the list goes on and on.

However, there are some things I am not ready to put out in the world, because if I do, then that makes those certain things real. And I am just not ready for that.

 

What I do want to talk about is Selfishness.

Now when most people see that word or even hear it, it usually means something bad.

And yes, selfishness can be bad, but I'm here to talk about the good of selfishness.

 

I've decided to take a year to be selfish.

Now, hold on before you judge me for doing so, let me explain...

I'm doing this because I feel like I need to become a better person, and truly find myself.

I believe I am having a mid life crisis in my late twenties...

So instead of spreading myself thin for others and obligations, I rather sit back and find myself, and really focus on me and my kids.

So if I say no to going out with friends, or don't want to give a ride to someone, or if I just plainly reject something, please don't take it personally. I am just not going to be doing very much that I no longer want to do.

 

In the past and very recently, it was very common for me to always be there for others. Yet when I was in need with everything that is going, about 99% of the people that I was there for were not there for me in my time of need. Which is fine. It truly opened my eyes on what kind of people I want to surround myself with.

 

I'm forming my circle of people, and to be honest, it is pretty amazing what this circle of people have done for me. I feel like they will forever be in my life.

 

Now back on track. Being selfish is something that I haven't yet gotten to do. Have I had selfish moments? Of course I have. But I've never been truly selfish.

I want my time to be MINE. I want to do something because I WANT to do it. I want to see something because I WANT to see it.

 

Now please don't think that I am saying that I've done everything for everyone. That is not the case. I do feel that I HAVE done more for others than they have done for me. And it sucks, because I was the one who truly believed that others would do as I do for them. Again that is not the case and me just being naïve. There have been moments where others have helped me, however, I felt like it came with a cost. And I'm sure others will say the same about me, but no one ever wants to take the blame. So you know what, I'll take the blame for everything. Because during this year of me being selfish, I'm going to learn to not care about petty shit like that.

 

During this year, I'm going to find myself.

I AM going to find my FAITH.

I AM going to have God lead me down the right path.

I AM going to become happy.

I AM going to learn to love myself.

I AM going to learn to build such confidence, that NO ONE will EVER be able to destroy me again.

I AM going to get where I am suppose to be.

I AM going to accomplish my goals.

I AM going to be SELFISH and going to FOCUS on ME.

 

There are people out there, who I'm sure will talk shit about me because of what I'm doing, or will have a harsh opinion, but hey it's ok. Do whatever you have to do to make yourself feel better.

I am not going to stop anyone from feeling better about themselves.

 

Right now I am in a dark place. I am filled with bitterness, and hatred. And that is not me. SO I am changing that. I've felt like I am drowning in a black sea. However recently I've been feeling like I can somewhat breathe under this black sea and I can see light at a very far distance.

Right now, I'm not great, wonderful, amazing, awesome, good, well, etc.

I am just O.K.

A few weeks ago I wasn't even O.K. so therefore I am growing.

 

The ones who love me have told me that I am in a growing period of my life. And trust me, I didn't want to hear it at the moment but I am now understanding what exactly they meant by it.

If I could have punched my brother through the phone for saying that type of stuff to me, I would have haha, but now I know that he was saying that stuff to help me realize my strength.

 

I have been destroyed, I have been defeated, I have reached my bottom.

 

Now, it's time for me to rise.

With God leading the way.

Nothing is impossible anymore.

Nothing is out of reach.

Nothing is going to stop me.

 

Here's to a year of being selfish!!!

 

 



10 facts about MOI.

I've been seeing a lot of blog post like this, so I figured why not?

 

1. I currently am taking FIVE classes, plus work, plus kids...wtheck was I thinking?!

2. I LOVE making fabric flowers for your hair. I don't know why but I FREAKING love it more than any other DIY projects.

3. I get obsessive about things. For instance, if I get on a cleaning kick, I have to do because it has to be done a certain way. Or if I read a book, I have to find a series because I can't just stop at one book. I have questions!!

4. I love a good smelling house. I love candles, and all things that just smell yummy!

5. I like buying hoards amounts of cleaning supplies. When I moved 2 years ago, I had 2 or 3 giant boxes filled with cleaning products.

6. My planner is color coordinated according to school (each class has it's own color), work, mom stuff, appointments, etc.

7. I love planning board games with my kiddos. I'm happy that they love playing board games with me as well :)

8. I love a good bargain! I am always price matching, seeing if it's something that I could easily make, or something I can borrow.

9. I am a plain jane. I like to wear jeans, a shirt, and some flats or sandals. I go through areas where I have to have an accessory for everything but eventually I go back to my roots of being simple. I have to thank my brother for that. I wanted to be just like my big bro growing up. haha. I also just wear foundation, mascara, and some tinted lip balm.

10. I am a carb lover. I will choose a bread stick over some candy. Also I don't like candy, and I especially don't like chocolate candy. The smell of it makes me sick...WHAT?!?! A girl who doesn't like chocolate is not normal haha.

 

Alright, there are my 10 facts.

What are some facts about yourself that not many people know?

 

Have a good day!!

 

 



Traditions & randomness of course.

I have come to notice that every year for the past (going on) 3 years, January and February have been pretty crappy months. Something always seem to happen during the beginning months.

I am going to keep praying that things finally change, or that this could be the last year where something unfortunate happens.

I pray this is not becoming a tradition for me.

 

So I am attempting to change things. I am letting go of things I no longer need or want in my life.

 

Like I've said in my previous post, I am going to be selfish this year and focus on my needs and wants. I don't care if others agree or frown upon that, it's my life not theirs.

 

It is something that is hard for me to do, because I am a giver. I try to give to others, help others, do everything I can, but I am so burnt out it is taking a major toll on me and my health.

 

My weight loss has been going pretty good. On days that I don't workout, I try to meet a goal of at least 6,000 steps for that day. Or I try to super clean haha. Same thing right?!

 

I started school this past Saturday and I'm already having issues. None of my classes are showing up online except for my math...of course. SO I have to figure that issue out, not an easy task if I say so myself.

 

I'm currently trying to simplify my life, and have been super cleaning. So far, I've gotten through a little bit of my closet, school books, makeup, most of the kids clothes, and some random papers. Not bad for the start of the year.

 

Next up are dressers, shoes, and beauty products.

 

Speaking of traditions,

Some traditions I am hoping to create this year are:

1. Read at least one book a month

2. Pick an area each month, and deep clean through whatever it is.

3. At least a weekly family game night, and a monthly family movie night

4. Read the bible, and write notes, and eventually pass it on to my children.

5. Go thrift shopping with my kiddos, and really teach them the value of a dollar. My mother was very good at teaching us the value of a dollar by having us work and pay for certain things. My eyes were opened at that moment I made my first purchase and realized how quickly money goes.

 

Well I'm not sure where this blog post is going. It's truly all over the place. So I'll just leave it here. haha

 

Have a great day!

 



Raw.

Let's get a little raw here.

2015 was a shitty year.

It was the most challenging year I have yet experienced.

I don't wish any of the stuff I went through on anyone.

And the frustrating part is that I was not the cause of any of the stuff I went through. That is why I am currently re-evaluating who is exactly in my life.

I will NOT have another shitty year because of other people.

 

Let's go a bit deeper.

I gained back all the weight that I had originally lost except for maybe 5 pounds.

I am an emotional eater. It was a non stop roller coaster last year.

 

And something no body outside of immediate family and of course my bestie.

I am suffering from depression and anxiety.

It's not something I am proud of. I feel like I have failed myself to let myself get here. Some days are harder than others, but I'm just trying to take things one day at a time.

That is why I am back to my weight loss journey.

I am hoping that with losing some weight, that I will lose some of this emotion.

 

I know that this may be selfish, but I am going to make this year about myself.

I have given so much to other people that I have nothing left to give.

It's really tough to constantly have to smile at everyone like everything is ok, when in reality it's not.

But a part of it is my fault because I let certain people continue to walk all over me.

Well I'm done with that.

 

So I'm no longer going to lie, and just pretend everything is fine.

 

Things are changing and I am determined that they change for what's BEST FOR ME and MY KIDS and no one else.

 

2016 is where I get my shit together. And finally get rid of shit haha. 

 

 

 



Happy New Year 2016!!

     So I basically spent my new years relaxing at home, with my hair all nappy, watching movies, and working on my planner. So I would say that it was a great new years for me. E is with her father and step mom and T was with the neighbors where they had a bunch of kids over playing games. My kiddos are growing up and leaving the house already! :( So I had no kiddos around me for NYE, which gave me time to sit down and think about things that I want to achieve for the year.

     I know a lot of people think resolutions are stupid, however, I like making goals for the year and see how much I have accomplished at the end of the year. Do you know how satisfying it is when you get to see your goals written on paper and you can mark them off at the end of the year meaning you did it?! It's a wonderful feeling.

     I put my goals list in my planner so I can constantly see them to make sure I am planning stuff to help me achieve them. Here are a few of my goals. I'm keeping certain goals private until I am more comfortable with being that open.

- Lose five pounds per month, which totals to 60 pounds for the year
- Make meal plans & workout!! Push yourself!
- Declutter my life: LESS is MORE.
- Set up monthly goals
- Do well in school
- Get rid of some debt
- Read more personal development books and good book in general
- Blog and learn to be open
- Get up & do more & BE MORE
- Take things one day at a time

Pretty hefty goals right there, however, I'll be able to achieve them because I am a planner and I love making lists to help me cross things off.

I already have all my meals planned for January. They are very simple, nothing fancy, but it makes  things more achievable.

What are some of your goals that you've made for the year? Hope everyone had a great NYE!!

Flowers

Lately I've been making some fabric flowers hair clips and headbands and it is so much fun!

I love making things. And repurposing things that I randomly find.

I've been approached to make wedding bouquets, so hopefully my flower making technique will be good enough for that!!!

And how awesome is the fact that someone wants to share their special day with me, by having a little project of mine appear in so many photos, and could be a keepsake?

Making things is my little way of getting things off my mind. Creativity is my outlet. Granted I'm not anywhere near those people who make a living off of their craft, but maybe one day!

Here are some flowers that I have made so far. Let me know what you think?

Also Eliana is into making them too. She helped me with some :)

Make today a beautiful day!!



21 Day Habit Challenge

I am hosting a 21 Day Habit Challenge.

I need encouragement and support on this weight loss journey of mine.

So what better way then to have others come together and encourage each other to forming new habits.

Now it is not solely on weight loss. It can be any habit some one is trying to form such as organization, not spending money, not going out to eat, etc.

Also it is not just on beachbody products.

I however will be using them, just because I know that they work for me.

So if you would like to join in on the fun, please let me know so I can add you to the FB group.

Otherwise, you can just post on IG using #psm21daychallenge

I can't wait for this group!! I am so excited!!

Make today a beautiful day!



Mini Update

So I took a break from social media for a little bit, because I had a lot of stuff going on between school, and life. Now everything is going back into order.

Have you ever had like a few weeks where everything is just crazy? Like holy crap!

Anyways, here is a little update.

1. School is almost over. THANK BABY JESUS from the bottom of my heart and soul! This semester has had me all crazy.

2. TJ and the bf went on an all guys fishing trip. It was TJ's first time going, and apparently he did really well and learned very quickly! So happy that they had a great time!

 

3. Eliana and I have been growing closer and I love it! Granted we were already close, but she is growing up it feels like, and we are just able to do more stuff together like DIY projects.
 

4. I've also took a break from social media because I really got into my creative side. I'll post pics on another post of stuff that I've been making.

5. I suck at losing weight. I get into it and then it dies down....UGHHHHH this irritates me the most. Like seriously Estefanie? You can't work out 30 mins a day and eat the healthy stuff instead of the bad stuff. Ugh. SO annoying.

6. I hate to admit this, but I'm slacking on school. It's like I'm doing the bare minimum now. Which cost me my 4.0. I'm now at a 3.8 which is still good, but not as good as I want it. I must now take my head out of my ass and get the ball rolling again.

7. I am counting down the days until we go on vacation next month. Which should be motivation for me to move my ass more to lose weight considering that there is going to swimsuits involved.

8. Being a parent is hard. I love my kids but man some days I just want to be like fend for yourself! And do the damn laundry you hevens! Haha total asshole right there! But hey the truth hurts haha
 

9. Since having my braces I've lost a few pounds so yay!!!

10. I hate having braces. They are in the way. If I'm not talking with a lisp now, I'll either be spitting at you, or drooling on myself...It's soooo attractive. My bf and I crack jokes all the time about it. Gotta laugh at yourself.

Well that is all I have for today! I have a paper about children behavior and corporal punishment to write. I know that is going to be a fun one to write.......haha

Make today a beautiful day!

Brain Dump

I'm positive that this post will pretty much be all over the place.

 

Have you ever had so much going through your mind that you just don't even know where to begin?

Well that is me currently.

 

I'm stressed about school. I'm getting lazy, to the point where I don't even care. How did that happen? Why is that happening? The end of this semester is just off. I think a mixture of spring break, and finding out that the classes I'm currently in are no longer being counted for the nursing program, as well as changing some of the required classes. That really pissed me off, due to the fact that I am going to be a semester behind of what I had originally planned. I'm getting old and I don't want to be almost 30 by the time I graduate. But I suppose it's been late than never.

 

Another thing that is going on. Negativity. It's definitely not a good vibe to have. It pretty much ruins everything. Moods, days, moments you won't get back. It sucks to be in a funk. And seems impossible to not get out of it. I guess the quote "Nothing is impossible" should be right here.

 

I'm going absolute bonkers by being a SAHM. I have always worked, so I am extremely out of my norm. I'm not use to being at home all the time. I guess I shouldn't complain because I know many who would rather have my position of being able to stay home while your significant other takes care of everything. In that aspect, I am thankful.

 

I am not a country girl. I am a city girl. I have always lived in large cites. San Diego, the Bay area, Las Vegas, and now I'm in BFE. Where I have to drive to just get to a local library, and it takes 25 mins to get to a store like Walmart or Target. I'm use to being able to walk across the street and BAM have everything right there. Granted there are good things about living in BFE. We have land, so therefore, my kids can run around, we have annoyingly loud chickens that give us fresh/free eggs and we can pretty much do whatever we want. Just wish I wasn't so isolated.

 

Unmotivated. To do anything other than watch Netflix, or do a craft project, or just hanging out. I've been having a blast just siting in the living room singing along with my kids while they dance around. Or when we play the quiet game. I get some good reading in during that game! HAHA.

However I did do my hair and makeup for Easter. I only took about 2 pics because I just was not feeling good whatsoever. So you don't really get to see the cute outfits I had picked out. LAME.

 

I am dreading the summer here in AZ....I hate the heat and the sunshine all damn day. When it's almost 8 at night and the sun is barely going down, we have a problem. I want to live in Washington. Gloomy is the way to be!! haha.

 

And just some other personal stuff that is going on.

 

All I want is to eat and not get fatter, and nap. Is that asking for too damn much?! Sheesh.

 

SO pretty much I'm in a bitch fest mood aka Negative Nancy right now.

 

Oh well, it was good to get it off my chest, now hopefully I'll be going back to my happy self.

 

 



Crafts!!

Now if you know me personally, you would know that I love to craft, I would consider it a hobby if I did it more often. But I just love crafting. It clears my mind.

I'm not a full on DIY or anything, just like to do small little things here and there.

It's fun, and I love it; however, I just don't get to do it as much as I would like.

I live in town that only has Michael's.

And I am a Hobby Lobby girl allllllll the way.

My old apartment was filled with Hobby Lobby, considering I use to live across the street from one. Literally. I could walk right across the street.

So I make do with Michael's and Walmart.

I don't have much of a creative vibe as I once did.

I would make every single one of my kid's bday invites, decorations, wall art, repurpose items I found at Goodwill etc. (also the said town I live in doesn't have a very stocked Goodwill. I've never found anything there in over a year).

I don't do that stuff anymore. Lame.

 

 

 

BUT my daughter Eliana is super creative!

I'm so glad that she is crafty!

When we go to Michael's, she just walks around like she knows what she is doing, and she knows exactly what she wants. When we went there a couple of weeks ago, she picked a letter, a backing, and a decorative little snowflake. Knew what paint she should use on each one, and which paint brush she should use. YOU GO GIRL!!!

Also this girl has a thing with bracelets. Give her string and some beads and she'll make you like 5 different bracelets, and I'm talking different styles. Like braided, beaded, weaved around beads, charms, everything.

 

 

 

My son TJ, he has a bit of creativeness to him, but not a lot. It's ok though, because he rocks at stick figures!! He is a more experiment type of person. I was teaching the kiddos about how clouds work like 2 weeks ago, and he was just all about it. He was extremely careful about his area not getting messing, just very detailed about the whole thing. Like I need x amount of water, x amount of shaving cream, and drop the water colors in specific areas.

 

 

 

It's really awesome to see how different yet similar my kids are. And how they learn things.

What is your hobby? Does your kids have a similar hobby or the same as you?

Make today a beautiful day!!

 

Spring break is FINALLY over.

I am so thankful that spring break is finally over. Seriously.

My routine can go back to normal.

During my spring break, I pretty much binge watched Netflix, nap, play with the kids, do learning activities with them, and eat. I basically didn't read anything school related. I tried to, but it just wasn't happening.

That was the first week (my spring break). My kids got two weeks off of school....

So I went back to school during the second week, and organization just went out the window. I normally do all my reading and the larger assignments while the kids are school, and the smaller stuff after bed time, but that just wasn't working out during that week. The kids were very distracting for me. Not in a bad way, it's just I don't like it when I'm away from them for quite a few hours doing stuff. I feel like I'm ignoring them, and I don't like it. Anyways I was all over the place with my school stuff. So I got behind.

And then Eliana and I got braces last week (during said 2nd horrible spring break week). Then the next day I had to go in for four extractions. To say it was a hot mess is an understatement.

I was able to catch up with my school stuff the night before and the morning of "extraction day", or so I thought.

So after a few days of mashed potatoes, and jello, I was finally able to handle the pain, and try to slowly get back to things. When I looked at all my school stuff, I realized I somehow missed a math quiz, English paper, and a discussion board. How I managed that? I have no idea. So Sunday night I was working until about midnight making sure everything got done. I wasn't even able to make my planner up to date with this week yet, since I do that every Sunday.

I am finally getting back into routine. And just thankful for that! I need to work on my planner ASAP.

Yesterday was the first day back for the kids, and I was able to get three homework assignments, a 440 point test all for medical terminology done. I also did another math quiz and a homework assignment and got a chapter of reading done for English, while they were gone. BOOM.

Feels good to get stuff done.

And now I'm back to blogging again as well haha.

Have you ever been distracted by your kiddos? What stuff did you put off?

Hope you had a great spring break, and make today a beautiful day!



Are you washing your hair wrong?

This is completely random, however; I thought it was quite interesting.

I read an article about a week and a half ago saying that we are washing our hair wrong!

I don't remember the article or where I found or else I would cite it. (If I do come across it again, I'll update the post with the link to the article)

Anyways, apparently we are suppose to condition our hair first then shampoo!

WTHECK?!?!

The article said to condition your hair not the roots, more so focusing on the ends.

Let it soak for a few minutes.

I usually wash the bod and shave the l
egs during this waiting time.

Then I rinse with warm water.

I then wash my roots with shampoo, really focusing on just them.

Rinse with warm water, then a splash of cold water and I'm done!

This method is suppose to give your hair more volume, help with frizziness (hello curly hair friends!!), and make your hair softer since your really focusing on the conditioner .

I'll be honest, it completely felt WRONG the first two times I did it this way, BUT after the first use, I noticed how much higher my hair was. My hair was also softer.

This is when I let my hair out of the towel.
Left is normal shampoo/condition and right is a week and a half of condition/shampoo

 

 

This is after I brush my hair with a wide tooth comb.

Left is normal shampoo/condition and right is a week and a half of condition/shampoo

 

 

I can totally see a difference!!! My waves/nappy hair are more defined!

 

I'm not sure if any hair stylists will agree with this method, but I tried it and I liked it.

Have you ever tried this method before? Have you ever read something and decided to try it out? If so, what was it? And did you like the results?

Make today a beautiful day!!



Lesbehonest about weightloss.

I'll be honest.

I haven't focused on my weight loss in a while. I did pretty good when I meal prepped and after the food was done, I was pretty much done with the diet and the working out. 

Which got me thinking...

Why do I not want to work on my weight loss journey?

And this is where I had to be extremely honest with myself.

And this is what I came up with.

I just don't want to do anything about my weight

I don't believe I can do it.

It's hard.

I'll always be a "bigger" girl.

This breaks my heart...

It's like who have I become?

I remember how motivated I was to be my healthiest, and yet I can't even choose fruit over some tater tots.

I started to really try to connect why this time was different from all the other times.

I realized I wasn't mentally ready to lose the weight.

Weight loss is definitely more of a mental battle than anything.

And every time I would work out, and I couldn't keep up, it completely left me unmotivated, and validated that it's hard and I can't do it.

Then I get frustrated with myself because I always try to motivate others to be the best they can possibly be, and yet I'm not practicing what I am preaching.

Ugh talk about a slap to the face right there.

I look at all the amazing people I follow on IG and I am basically jealous of all that they have accomplished. And it makes me wish for those same results.

Not being mentally ready to lose weight is a challenge in itself.

SO now that I am done standing on my soapbox and having a violin play for my "feel sorry for me" speech.

This is the game plan.

I will schedule my workouts just as if I am going to class or an appointment.

I will prep my food for about 3-4 days at a time so that way I don't have an excuse to not eat healthy.

I will not go out to eat to temp myself with unhealthy choices, because I know myself and I will get the unhealthy choice no matter what.

I will document my workouts on IG (@pearshapedmama). If there is no picture, the work out didn't happen.

I am going to force myself out of this funk by taking it one day at a time.

I hope you all will help keep me accountable since I am putting this out there!

Let's do this together!! :)
 

Hope you all have a beautiful evening!!

Spring Break & Homework

So my children and I are currently on spring break.

I get one week off, while my children get two...really?!

Anyways, unfortunately for my children, I don't let them slack off school work just because they are on break. There is a reason my children are at the top of their classes, because I push them to think, learn, and express.

Right now, I have them do at least one assignment a day. Sometimes it'll be math, or reading, or art, or whatever I feel like doing with them. I let them do their "homework" by themselves. If they have any questions, I encourage them to give the answer that fits best, so basically I tell them to figure it out. After they are done, I go over their worksheets with them, and have them explain how they got certain answers. After that, the worksheet gets graded. I print the worksheets from different websites according to their grade level. Sometimes I go up a grade just to give them a bit of a challenge.

I spend at least one hour with each one of my children everyday, going over anything educational, whether it be reading, flashcards, doing arts and crafts, whatever! As long as we are doing something and spending that quality time together. I want my children to strive in their education. I hope that my children became extremely successful one day.

My daughter loves some subjects that I don't enjoy whatsoever, good example is math. She is pretty much obsessed with anything math. As well as science, which I actually love!

I hope she becomes a scientist or something equivalent. How wonderful would it be if she is the one who discovers something new!! She is also extremely creative! Goodness, I love the stuff that she creates out of just simple things!

My son loves to read and write, maybe he'll become an author of a best seller! How awesome would that be! I also love his creativeness. He draws me the BEST stick figures I have every seen ;)

I understand that most people would possibly undermine what I think my children are capable of due to the fact that they are only in Kindergarten and 3rd grade. I get that they are in the "easy" grades right now, however; this is the stepping stones to the rest of their education. If they don't do well now, do you think they will in the future?

So basically our spring break has been filled with homework, movies, reading, playing outside, Netflix binging, and napping haha.

I also have homework during my spring break. I am making study guides, flashcards, and reading. I can't believe that my spring break is almost done!! UGHHHH...

Oh as for the 21DF, yeah that was postponed until today, because we had a family day date yesterday, filled with shopping for arts and crafts, T-ball stand, and gloves, eating non stop it seems, a movie and just walking around. It was so much fun!!

How is your spring break going?

Have a beautiful day!!
