490: Always

It is 10:10pm.

I am listening to Julien read out loud in the other room and Gabriel is playing with my scalp massager that I treated myself to at Christmas time. ($1 treat! Watch out big spender lol).

Today has been another amazing and super busy day.

Julien, Alex and I volunteered at the Food Pantry this morning as our act of kindness for Elijah, and the boys did such a great job helping! I am so proud of them, and I am so thankful for this opportunity for them to give back and be apart of their community. It really is a huge blessing.

I wanted to do this so many times before, but in Orlando there always seemed to be age limits or I was working, or I had some other excuse...but for the last two days we have made it happen and it has been great.

Saturday is the distribution day and it will be the day we get to see all our hard work help other people. I am really excited about this.

After volunteering I came home and let the boys run outside and play in the beautiful weather while I finished working on my latest book. All the illustrations are done, and all that is left to do is format the cover and pay for it to be published.

And then there was Zumba!!! I love my Zumba class, and today I sold my first It Works Wrap for Wrap Cash! It was really exciting. (and I sure could use that money lol).

It works has been a really exciting adventure so far, but the absolute best part is how wonderful my team is. Tonight I got to "zoom" (have a conference video) with some of them and it was just nice to connect. I can't wait to get going and make big things happen there.

Anyways, Today was a great day and I am so thankful.

And I need to make it a good night lol and get in bed. I am getting early to go clean my friend's house in exchange for some children's books. (Not that I wouldn't have done it just to help her out).

I will come up with some more exciting things to blog about soon, other than just listing the events in my day lol. But thank you all for reading and continuing to read. I am on the edge of some really great ideas and I think you will be really excited.

Goodnight everyone. Please continue to pray for our world. Pray for my family. Pray for me. Pray for you! And always always pray for my sweet Elijah.

Thank you!


My gosh. You are so beautiful.
Look at that perfect little nose.
Even on such a perfect day, my eyes are tearing up as 
I write this little message to you.
I will always miss you
and there will always be a sting of you not being here.
Just know that I am always your momma 
and I will always talk about you.
I will always do acts of kindness for you
And you are always a part of this family.
We love and miss you sweet boy.
Always.
