Celebrate | Mother's Day

Happy belated mother's day for all moms out there who are always looking out for their kids and the ones who feel like so even if they are not their own.

Yesterday I spent a very relaxing day with my mom and my grandma. I decided I was going to cook them brunch and spoil them a little with food and a lot of love.

Mother's Day 2013

Happy mother's day to all the moms out there!

We are having a special time at home, doing nothing but chill out and enjoy the pretty day. We had a brunch where we enjoyed a pretty yummy feast and my grandma got all the attention. Of course my mom too, but my grandma is a mom times 2.

Head over to Instagram and check out today's pictures of our brunch table.

I hope you are having an awesome time with your moms and show them you love them to the moon and beyond, cause to the moon and back is such a limited distance.

Seasons Drama

I'm sitting here knowing very little about the meaning of the changing seasons. They are very stressful for me, in winter I want summer and in summer I want winter. 

Yes, a total roller coaster of emotions when I get one and not the other. A little drama queen. 

So today I am in one of those moods where I hate summer and wish it was winter to bundle up and layer my clothes and look even cuter without worrying that the sweat (gross) comes down my face and ruin the piece of art that is my make-up (LOL totally not true!!) but lets pretend it is. 

Even though I have a fan blowing at the maximum capacity, I just can't get the heat to turn off (I wish there existed a switch to just turn seasons on and off) and my desire for it to be winter is even greater. 

Heat in summer makes me dizzy somehow, specially it being hot when my classes at Uni start and keeps on going till the middle of the semester. It is just unbearable. 

I feel I have been writing a lot about things that bother me, but let's face it, there are a lot. Keeping up with the seasons is one that makes my mind tired. 

That is enough about my babbling, that could continue for hours, but I wont bother you any further with it. 

I hope you are enjoying your week and have an awesome time.

If I could...

...live a hundred years, climb the highest mountains,  laugh about everything, never shed a tear, fight with tigers,  I would do it for the women in my life, my mother and grandmother ( momma and grammi). 

They have given their lives to take care of us, they are the most dedicated human beings in the world. There are ups and downs in life that have never made them stop. I love them at their best, but most importantly of all at their worst. 

Here is a cheer for my momma, even if there are adversities, she has never cracked, she has kept the calm and made us keep it down. Once I was scared to go on my first day of kinder, even if it was tough to let go of the little girl, she showed a strength and made me realize everything was going to be OK. That is the support I have always known and my momma taught me well. If you are scared to make a move to go on with your life not knowing what is about to come, just take a chance either way life is a mystery that you can unwind on your own with the support given by the ones you love. Each step of my journey in life she's been there for me. Letting me know that my decisions lead to different outcomes some for the best and some that made me learn. 

She was never alone leading me through life. There she is the pillar for us both. My grammi. The other most important woman in my life. She has the strength of 100 men, and the courage of a Lioness fighting for her pups. She was a loving house wife when my momma was little, she was dedicated and still is to this day. The ups and downs of life have never stopped her. Some very rough moments happened when I was a little girl and she had to take a chance and stand up for my grandfather's pride. At her 55 Years of age, a dedicated wife and mother and grandmother, had to step out of her safety net and went out to work and took her life by the horns. She had never worked but still, she now has a successful business. That is how strong she is. Later in the year that past, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. That was a blow. For her and for us. We were scared. Very. But she was in good hands and now she is recovering. I love her for that. She has been always there for us. 

Now that it is their special day, I wanted to dedicate this post to let them know how much of a proud daughter and granddaughter I am, I've learned of strength, I've learn what true love means from them. I've learned never to give up. Also to never settle. Take risks, in life you are allowed to fail and from failure you will learn to never fail on the same again.  

They are the women in my life. I am so proud to carry their blood and to learn about their courage.
