WELCOME!

My name is Diane. I wish I could tell you that I am the perfect mother and wife. But I am not. In fact, I created this blog with the hopes that it would help me to become a better everything. I want to find solutions to everyday issues that most parents and women have. I want to share these solutions with you and hope that you will share your advice with me as well. Thank you and welcome.

About Me

My photo
I am a mother of 4 beautiful girls. Each one special in their own way. I have a wonderful husband who makes me laugh everyday. He reminds me how good it is to be able to love someone so deeply and truly. I am a happy person who wants to be able to manage my family and home life without totally losing my mind over an occasional mishap or disappearance of socks. I live for my family but understand that sometimes I need a little me time. I enjoy crafts, holidays, cooking, and wish I was a better housekeeper. But that's part of why I am doing this. To become better!

I forgot how much I loved you (me)...

When you become a mom, you tend to forget about someone that is so important that if they disappeared you're life, it would end.  I'm talking about you.  Sometimes I get so busy I forget to take a little bit of time to check on myself.  How am I feeling?  Do I need a little bit of alone time?  Do I need a moment to reflect on my day and appreciate the little things that made me smile?  Yes,  we all do.  Take a little time, even if it's only 5 minutes and pat yourself on the back.  You did a great job today!  You fixed a boo-boo, you settled a quarrel between siblings, you made your husband feel good about what he does for your family, and most of all, you worked hard for your family today.  Whether you are a stay at home mom or you work a 9 to 5 job daily, you work hard everyday.  Sometimes (most of the time) with out a day off.  Don't forget to love yourself everyday!  You deserve it!
