My Pursuit of Happyness

I am mom. I am a wife. I am a fairly happy person. I enjoy my business. I enjoy my life.

But, something is missing.

I am inviting you to join me on a journey as I look to create a life of abundance for myself and my family.  I am puffing out my chest and strapping on some courage to face some hard facts and make some changes to find out what we truly want… instead of what we “should” want.

Yes, this will mean making changes, big changes! Not just to my life, but to my kids as well. Hubby and I are ready to plunge into the “unknown” without a safety net to see if we have what it takes to design a life we love.

Want to come along?
Read my first post and then catch up with my changes every tuesday and thursday morning! Maybe I will inspire you to live your dreams… maybe you will realize you already are!  Possibly it will be entertaining, heart wrenching, or humorous!

Shall we find out…

Good people are hard to find! We think this way in business, when looking at sports coaches for our kids teams, or when we finally find the “right” person to clean our house, look after our kids and build our … Continue reading

The power of magic *

This weekend we walked through our garden, giving the tulips some love and encouragement. Next weekend, (hopefully when they have opened) we will stop by to check and see if the fairies have arrived: because everyone knows fairies live in … Continue reading

Hang with ME on a desert island & WIN! *

Why would you choose me to be trapped with on a dessert island? Coquitlam Mommy thinks her mommy prep skills are better than mine (Ha, I know… come on!) Let us know who would would rather be stuck with on … Continue reading

Today I called in lame.

Today I called in lame. I was booked for a spin bike and had a day filled with plans, but I called in lame to the whole day. I cancelled my bike and lay curled up on the couch, playing … Continue reading

Let’s hear it for the boys

My first two kids were girls, and as I was pregnant with number three I would have people come up to me, moms with sons mostly and say “wouldn’t it be great if it was a boy?”  I would smile … Continue reading

it’s a Love/Hate thing

My mind opened a little further this morning. As I was sweating my weekend of fun off on the spin bike and (quietly) cursing our instructor for her “one more time” comments, I came to a realization.       … Continue reading
