Happy Mother’s Day to a Very Special Lady…

I want to first take the time to wish all the mothers a very Happy Mother’s Day.  I hope that no matter what you are doing today, you know that you are celebrated.  Mothers are truly something special…

I can say that because I have a great example of a special mother… or as I call her “mommy”.  For those of you who read my Mother’s Day blog last year know that my mother is my best friend.  There is not one thing I would not do for this woman.  She is the most real, most honest and most humble person I know.  She keeps us all grounded and would do anything for us.  Definitely a great role model of what a wife and mother should be!!!  So today I just want to take some time to let her know how much she means to me.

Celebrating One Year of Blogging…

I have made it through one full year as a  blogger and I must say that it is much harder than I anticipated it to be.  When I first starting the mission of becoming a blogger, I had the goal of posting twice a week.  Well let’s just say that was not a realistic goal for a beginner.  Not to mention I have a jewelry business to run and I have a full-time career life.  What the heck was I thinking some may say…

First off I must mention that I do not blog as a career or for any financial compensation.  I decided to blog to promote my jewelry business, share some of what I like to call my “Fashion Wisdom” and to also share a little bit of my “food for thought”.  I always find that when I go shopping, people tend to migrate my way for advice.  I’m also that girl that can give great advice.  Seriously I do… ask anyone.  Haha
