I am a Mother !

 Whoooooo Chileeee!!! Thank God we made it to Sunday because on the 7th day God said R... E ...S ...T! Im sure whoever is reading this could use some lol, anyway I want to apologize for the entirely too looooooong of a post! I am sorry! LIFE HAS BEEN LIFING!!! That's basically how I have felt the past 2 years since I last blogged. I have a son now which most of you know, he just turned two years old and has completely changed and taken over my life. As a new mother or sometimes not new we seem to gradually just lose ourselves in motherhood because "aint no hood like motherhood!" The two years I've been ghost has just been busy busy busy with of course everything centered around Carter! So again I apologize for the late post as I adjust to my new life I want to remind everyone, especially mothers, to take some me time and just breathe. Treat yourself, relax, do absolutely nothing, take the load off, and find new ways to relieve stress! I do feel as a mother we do become accustom to just doing everything! It's always something aint it! Laundry, kids running around, errands, taking kids to practice, cook, clean, be the one they lean on when they're sick, nightly routines with bath time all of this on top of working full or part time whatever your schedule may be, PLEASE STOP and take a moment for yourself. I'm finding this a bit more difficult now to a point where it could lead to other things, when that load gets too heavy, let something go or get help. Us women are so strong, we overcome so many things, we press through we do this we do that, perseverance baby, that's us!! That load can take a tole on our mental health so be sure to take care of YOU at all times. Of course during this post I got interrupted about 4/5 times with the kids (stepson is 11) you see what I'm saying? Cant even wake up and be productive without some type of distraction, none the less it is blessing to be able to say "I am a mother" and brought life into this world! As I go into this week I will try to focus on making sure things are "balanced." Time for me, time for kids, designated time for whatever it may be you need to get done, everything is centered around the right balance, not too much on one side, a healthy and maintainable balance, a see saw if you will lol. When the load is too much don't get stuck! I will now try to maintain and make a priority to do a weekly post preferably Sundays because I'm off but God Bless and take care of yourselves.... first! Im out... - Carter's Mom

Don't Take "It" For Granted

-
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE! I hope everyone has had a good week thus far... hopefully this new mid-week post will help carry you and give you something to think about as you continue the rest of the week.... I know sometimes we get carried away with work, busy with house things, and just caught up in our normal routine, but when is the last time you stopped and gave thanks for what you had? Or showed gratitude for those small things we take for granted... or big things! This could be talking and communicating with your children and what's going on in their lives or the simple fact that your car started this morning, you have hot water at home, you have shoes on your feet, a place to stay, these are things I think we've gotten so accustom to, but remember not everyone is blessed to have these things... start looking at the brighter side of things in all situations, shift your mind. Maybe your car didn't start   this morning but at least you have some sort of road service assis...

DND (do not disturb)

-
 Good afternoon everyone.. I hope everyone reading this is blessed and in good health.. I know I've spoke before on protecting your peace, mental health, etc. but I cant stress enough how important it is .. DND! I'm not even talking about your cell phone even though you can utilize that also when needing or searching for peace. We all need a break right? YES! Life is something else so having peace is vital! Why would you let someone disturb your peace anyway? Not worth it, no one knows how long we will be on this earth and we should take nothing for granted and live everyday like its our very last! Sometimes its needed to be on "DND,"  from your phone, work, even friends and family. Take time to recoup from that job, or being the "strong" person for others, from being that shoulder to lean on, just basically to reset and release DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO! It's not rude or selfish its necessary! Everyone deserves a break! Remember to treat yourself sometimes...

A Beautiful Distraction

-
Whoooo, It's been a long time coming!!! I apologize for the wait I had a whole baby boy and didn't even know I was pregnant! 😲 Forreal! 5.5 months on October 29th Ill never forget, the doctor said you're half way done, do you want to know what your having???! #SayWhaaaaaaa so yeah that's why there hasn't been a post but I hope everyone is still manifesting and staying positive! Then I lost my domain because I've been pleasantly distracted by my son! ; D. I haven't done a blog, gym, work, everything is different now of course but that's life, it's not what happens but how you respond to it. And my pregnancy was a surprise! So that was definitely a curve ball for sure but I love him so much and thank God for my blessing. I think things happen in life, expected or not, always at divine timing, to teach you things etc etc in some shape, form, or fashion. Always remember to adjust positively and live in the moment. This has been my biggest distraction ye...
