Thoughts this Thursday

15:27 Starter Fashionista Ma' 3 Comments

Good day my beautiful,super and absolutely wonderful starterFASHIONISTMA' mammies.

Quite a busy week this week so haven't posted much but I just had to post my Thoughts this Thursday  (T3- also know as three cubed) because this wisdom and thot has been popping in my head the whole week, non-stop so I figure God really wants me to share this with someone else out there,else well as to engrave it in my mind as well.

INVEST IN THINGS OF FUTURE VALUE (True value)!!!

I ,as I m sure other mammies do, am always tempted to buy things that bring joy  to me now. Luxuries , wants, things u can do without but although it will make u happy and sometimes even prettier now ,IS IT REALLY WORTH IT????




(Picture credit: gallery4share.com)

Although I am a firm believer in  looking after ones self and spoiling yourself at times (let's be honest if u work hard you deserve a little 'me' money )  but us as mammies and also daughters of the most High God should invest in things of future value , as much if not more than our daily human wants and luxuries.

I like looking online for the latest trends, beauty tips ,fashion etc and while I am sometimes doing this(especially this week) I hear a still voice asking me; "have you invested in a future for your kids ?" and sometimes  even ;" have you changed someone's life for good or blessed someone else lately?"Then I'll remember that its not all about the now and all about me either. Even though we living in a self-centred society and world nowadays ,we shouldn't conform! How about instead of another LV bag or Valentino shoes bless someone else with food to eat or even save those thousands for your babies future. Don't get me wrong I am not saying you shouldn't spoil yourself but can we also focus on investing on things of future value?


This thought like I said initially has being playing in my head like a broken record , so I 'm thinking God is asking me do some self reflection and I'm challenging you to do the same. As much as we share our latest style trends, beauty secrets here on this blog - I also believe in beauty that is inside and out.If your beautiful and right on the inside ,it will reflect outside as well. Its not just a clinche, I promise. God will bless you much more as you extend your hand to change some else's life.

I can go on and on convincing you what you should do with your money and life but I 'll just leave you with this homework for the weekend (especially it being pay day for some of us).

Step 1:
Next time you see the latest bag/shoe or watever item you "must have" ,before buying it please think how much good you would do if you save half of it towards your children's future and took another half and made a meal for a family that starving (they all around us if you open your eyes)? I am not referring to something you need so this homework only applies if you about to buy a luxury.

Step 2:
Next part of the homework step away from the item and do just that ( Step1)

Step 3:
How do you feel know you invested in something of future value ? Felt great right!!!

Lets do it ladies, change a life and change the future-Invest in things of true value!

We can do it and we would be wiser to do so...

PRODUCT REVIEWS

13:13 Starter Fashionista Ma' 2 Comments



I am really loving these products I just had to share. I believe they deserve good reviews and for other mommies to know about them and try them.
I recently just bought them and I'm thoroughly impressed. When they finished I'm definitely gonna top them up.

1. YARDLEY LOOSE POWDER
This loose powder is everything. I don't know if I'm being biased cause its the first powder I bought in a while since I usually buy foundation.I bought this powder the day prior to trying my Kim -K inspired highlighting and contouring look, cause I need a setting powder for the look-which I didn't have.The product comes in a compact packaging and  includes a little sponge too. I love how it looks as a finishing/set powder as well as how it looks as powder on its own. I use the colour -Caramelized and when using it alone it makes my complexion appear very even. Its minimum coverage -perfect for a natural look. Its also very blend-able when using it as a setting powder, I believe that's due to its light texture. It also improves wear-ability of make up and reduces shining as promised in the product description online. I'M TOTALLY SOLD ON THIS PRODUCT!!! You ladies should definitely try it.

 I give it a rating 4/5 ,only minus 1 for when you want more coverage since as I mentioned its very minimum coverage. 

2.ELEGANT TOUCH PRESS ON NAILS 
So as I'm sure you can recall I shared on my Friday DIY Nail-art post; I'm currently on a nail break. I did  DIY nail art on my nails the whole of last week to work, as well as on the weekend to a baby shower I was attending. Although my nails were looking OK last week, I decided to try press on nails this week-just for a little more glam. And no I don't think this will be counter-effective to my nail break cause I figure a little glue is a lot better than a lot of filing,buffing and product on my nails....so I still believe this will aid in the process of recovery of my nails.
I got the ELEGANT TOUCH PRESS ON (IN THE NAVY)cause I just loved the funky design and also the gel look nail polish on the nails. I opted to use nail glue instead of the adhesive pads that come with the nails for longer wear. They also come with a small nail file in the pack of 24 nails (so u get two wears out of a pack). I've had these for a day but I'm thoroughly loving them!!! The length is also short,an ideal and  perfect length for a mammy like me!Most people so far can hardly tell they are press-ons which is a bonus. Next time you in DISCHEM and are looking for some items to add to your mammy-fabulousity kit ,please do check out Elegant Touch nails. They have a wide range of designs as well as plain nails and matt nails so these pressies get a DEFINITE YES!!!






           This is how the look. YAAAAY neh???

     
I rate these 5/5!!!


Hope these reviews are helpful to you gorgeous mammies and that when you try out the products they will be  pleasing to you as they are to me!

FRIDAY FUN-CRAZY BOUT NAIL ART

12:31 Starter Fashionista Ma' 0 Comments

Happy Friday to all you fabulous mammies!!!


A humble request before I type this post to please comment and provide feed back on posts so I know whether you enjoying the blog as much as I am. Pretty please!


SO anyway this Friday its all about nail art!!!

I used to be a boring , plain Jane when it came to my nails but have recently been bitten by the nail art bug.OUCH!lol. I'm so in love with nail art that I feel naked when I have a plain french manicure or even just one colour gellish. Its getting worse and worse that I now even when I put on my own nail polish at home, JUST HAVE TO HAVE A BIT OF ART!Whether it be  (mostly) glitter or just different colours....I need art on my nails.


I believe nail art gives your nails personality and you can also have art according to your mood. Here are few pics on my nail art journey thus far...(they both professionally done with gellish and abit of acrylic for extra strength)





                                                


















My nails are currently however so brittle because for the past two months its just been product on my nails and obviously its making the nail bed a bit weaker . So I've decided to go on a nail break (its very difficult I tell you), like I also do with my skin and hair when I feel its getting a bit damaged due make up everyday or weaves weakening my hairline. I usually take a break and let the skin/hair breathe and restore a bit. So I'm also going to be doing my own nails and nail art for the next two weeks or so .
My first DIY nail art attempt:
                                                                         

 As I'm sure you also know by now, I'm such a You Tube tutorial addict. I been looking for cute DIY nail art to try next,something a bit different and nice so I took to You Tube for ideas. And they are really great ideas there  but the one that really caught my eye was the newspaper nails. Here's a link of one the tutorials I saw :

 NEWSPAPER NAIL ART


I thought I just had to try these nails cause I haven't seen them on anyone I know so far and also cause you don't need that many tools to do the nails.All u need is : Alcohol/Water; A light base nail polish of your choice not only limited to white and a newspaper (cut into ten strips for each nail) and a top base nail polish of your choice.
Since this whole nail "break" is to try restore my nails I will be using VERIMARK's PINK armour gel  coat as my top base and also Sally Hansen's Triple Strength nail polish as my base coat.

 My first attempt didn't go well( Not gonna even include pic).I had a  dark nail polish ,I think, so the newspaper print wasn't showing so I had to redo my nails. Just to spice it up will share pics of finished looked on my INSTAGRAM account only . Please click on the link below to see;-)

FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM



 So ladies what you think of nail art? 
Do you do your own nails at home or at a salon generally (kindly share nail artist dits as well  so we can check em out)? 
Lastly can  I stick to doing own nails although its gonna be every week or go back to professionals....lol...be honest!

P.S. Looking forward to my finished nails
P.S.S. Looking forward to the weekend and
P.S.S.S.Looking forward to your comments

MOMMY SURVIVAL TIPS 101

11:58 Starter Fashionista Ma' 0 Comments


MOMMY MONDAY (Late post-Sorry)

So guess who I spent my Mommy Monday with...lol....My two girls RERE & LELO.  My helper had to go to the clinic yesterday so I had to take a day off work to stay at home with my girls yesterday( hence the late post as well,we were super busy).I would be a full time mom if I could but shuuuuuuuu I really commend my helper-it ain't an easy job!I was more tired than when I come back from work.I am always with my girls on weekend cause my helper is off on weekends but daddy is also around most if not all the time ,so its not as hectic.

SO HOW DID I SURVIVE ? Here are a few tips that helped me have a busy but yet smooth sailing day with my girls yesterday. I also believe these tips will ensure other starter moms as well as the kids have a great and educational day together when they have a day together. I don't know about you but I feel like since I work most the time during the week , I'm missing out on adding as much as I want to on how they being raised and ultimately their fundamentals, so every time I am with them I want to give them us much love and mould them as much as I can, in our limited time together.

1. Planning is key. 

Planning is essential  and key as it is in every other area of life. I woke up about an hour before my girls did and made myself breakfast and planned the day we were gonna have so that I didn't find myself going crazy and them frustrated in turn. I did this when they both sleeping and the house was quiet and I was relaxed, basically during my quite time, when I cud think nicely.I planned everything from the fun activities I wanted us to do, to what we were going to eat during the day, to what they would wear....the works.

2. Breakfast the most important meal of the day. 

I made both my girls a nutritional breakfast , both their favorites. This would ensure that had enough energy for the day and wouldn't be cranking for the first part of our day. I made the eldest eggs,cheese and polony ( she doesn't like bread that much) and tea , and baby porridge for the baby.

3.  Balance. 

Ensure that your children have play time, tv time,educational time and sleeping/nap time throughout the day. I really took advantage of this day cause chances are they just watch tv the whole day when they at home with the helper. I made sure I did exercises with them outside, we drew (lol ,well Rere does most of the drawing) and not just tv . I emphasis once again , make the most of your time together with your babies.

4. Sharing is caring. 

This one is specifically for mammies with two or more kids with a very small age gap. My daughters are 16 months apart so I have to share my attention towards them .I have  learnt not just to play with the baby but to also give the older one attention. Share your love, attention and energy equally among your kids. Let them both know their  loved and can depend on their mom. Also I am also working on getting them to learn to share their toys with each other....still a struggle for now but they will learn as they grow, I believe.

5. Me time/Time out.

 I don't know who of you have toddlers but boy can they be a handful! Throughout the day I had to also go out for space and to take a bit of me time. This was mostly possible when they were sleeping which they didn't do much to my dismay. (Hands on head). Only the baby slept once for two hours from 10-12 am. I quickly went out to relax and gather my thoughts. I found that this ensures you don't go crazy and scream non stop at the kids. Me time is good for us as moms but as well as our kids.

6. Lastly HAVE FUN!!!

When all is said and done , although I was tired, I had lots and lots of fun with my girls. I love every moment I spend with them and I'm sure they do too. Seeing their smiles one their faces when were doing our exercises and playing outside. I really treasure all these small moments as I know they won't be little for ever.


These are just a few tips I feel can help us have a better time when we are home alone with our kids. I basically summarized it alot since a wanted to write a straight forward post, that hit home.


To conclude I would like to leave you with this thought; we as moms are everything to our babies and have the God-given responsibility to help them be the best they can be!We should use all our moments with them to mould them the best we can. We mustn't be tired all the time , which I know happens being working moms and all,but rather use all these times to instill sound beliefs ,confidence in these little beings so as they grow they know they loved and can achieve and be what ever they want to be. I believe this is the greatest and most important job in the world.....MOTHERHOOD!


Remained blessed all you super moms!!!

P.S. Sorry for no pics is this post, we were so busy I forgot to take pics

FOUR FAVES THIS FRIDAY!

13:22 Starter Fashionista Ma' 0 Comments


FOUR FAVES THIS FRIDAY!



I was so excited about this feature  that I couldn’t sleep without starting to type it. NO,its not gonna be another weekday feature here @starterFashionistaMa’ . We gonna carrying on winging the posts as they come every Friday but the  way I enjoyed preparing this feature ,who knows there maybe another Four Faves this Friday post in the near future.
I never got to enjoy winter fashion and looks last winter because I was quite pregnant with LELO this time last year. .It with was just me, Woolies winter dresses, coats ,leggings and Kgalalelo (lol) in my tummy the whole winter through.
This winter I treated myself with a few items that I wanted and knew would add versatility to my wardrobe. As you know we strongly believe in beauty on a budget  here cause as mamas we have a lot more responsibilities and can’t only splurge on ourselves. Balancing is key , as you’ll see there some higher priced items as well as some great budget buys.The most important thing is to buy items you can mix and match with what you already have to make the most of your wardrobe.


MY FOUR FAVE WINTER ITEMS THIS WINTER



      NO 1 :
       My Forever New Midi Skirt ( R 699.99 )




      I love this skirt so much. Firstly cause I absolutely adore Forever New clothing and accessories. They are the best quality and are so classic and chic, you don't even mind the highish prices cause you guaranteed to look like a charm.So I bought this skirt for my friends' wedding. I actually wanted to try the whole crop and skirt trend but I chickened-out cause I'd didn't want to have  even if its bit of my tummy on display till its in tip top shape. The skirt is navy which is also one of my fave winter colours  (GREY , NAVY, MAROON and BROWN/TAN are my go-to colours this winter) and it's also extremely versatile i.e. U can rock it with a blouse to go to church or a formal do/Dress is down with a polo-neck and cowboy boots. JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SKIRT!





       NO 2:
       My Dress /Trench coat (R 200.00 )



        
       I'm so in love with this dress coat cause not        only did I get it at a steal but I love all the details  that make the jacket. From the shoulder lapels,to  the grey colour with  a slight pin stripe detailed  material. To how it  pops  behind giving it a cute  little skater-dress  shape. I'm  yet to wear it as a  dress (still  plucking  up the  courage cause its  quite shorter  than what  I  usually wear). This  coat can also be worn up or down.




   NO 3:
   My Faux Fur Gillet (R 400.00)...LOL...I used to call it a faux fur waistcoat...



This piece is my first Instagram shop purchase and ever since I got it ,I'm sold on INSTAGRAM shopping. The fur is very good quality and I get complements and enquirers every time I wear it!I love it!There are alot of INSTAGRAM Shops/Bloggs and loads and loads of nice and unique pieces you can buy via Instagram.
     
       I bought this from @blue_chic_sa. Like I said before Instagram shopping is the one! Some of my faves so far are (still saving the money to buy my desired outfits) @materialgirlsbotswana-their dress collection is to die for; @stylesbytumi she has a body shape similar to mine and dresses it up so hot and sexy and @iseza_boutique her collection also includes shoes and she also stocks POKELLO's PINK BOTTOMS and lastly @mjcollectionglamourgoddess. Ladies please check out Instagram shops/bloggers u won't regret it- Great fashion finds all the way!


      NO 4:
     My Maxi Full Skirt (R 150.00)
   
       This skirt is my most out-of-the-box purchase yet. Its made of the same material as girls' school uniform skirts and is ankle length . On top of that it also has a full shape. Although I'm still not 100% sold on the length ,was even considering cutting it but want to wear it first to a friend's baby shower next Sat, this skirt really got attention last time I wore it. Its a very vintage type of design and would also look great with a pair of sneakers as much as it does formal. It's also very warm so its a strictly winter piece. I love that this skirt is quite unique and I felt very couture and fashionable the first and last day I wore it. SO IT GETS TWO THUMBS UP FOR BEING A DIFFERENT YET STYLISH PIECE!!!



     So there you have it: my four most favouritest (lol) items this winter. I hope you guys find this post as fun as I  did preparing it.

Thots this Thursday!!!

15:07 Starter Fashionista Ma' 0 Comments


Thots this Thursday


I was feeling so down and depressed yesterday I didn't even post my Wednesday Wisdom post. Apologies guy but today will be a combination of a Wisdom Wednesday and Thots this Thursday as I'm sure there is alot of wisdom in this thot. Hope it builds u up and encourages u.


As I mentioned I'm having a down period ,as I m sure you've all had atleast once in ur lives. Life in general is fine and ok but I've been just feeling down and like I'm not where I'm supposed to be in life. These thots were brought about by looking where my peers and other fabulous peeps are vs where I am. Although comparison and competition can be healthy , ultimately we are all destined for our own  life. So anyway allowed myself to stay in my sobby mood yesterday but today I thot came  to me ;ANYWAY who says you not where u supposed to be. (EEEISH I know my thots are all over the place today) but maybe we are where we supposed to be! And that actually we are where we are as a stepping stone to our final destination!

This leads me to my next thot; slow progress does not mean no progress. I have also been worrying and sad about things I'm trying to do to improve my life (this blog being one of them) being so sloooooooooowwwww but then it clicked to me slow progress does not equal no progress!!! A farmer plants a seed and waters and waters it .He also tends the soil and the area where he planted but after a week or two he doesn't see a plant but fact is the seed is growing. Just cause he doesn't see a plant yet it doesn't mean the seed is not growing. SAY IT WITH ME....SLOW PROGRESS DOES NOT = NO PROGRESS!


This ultimately leads me to my last thot don't give up. Let me be honest with you there are so many  dreams and things I still want to achieve in my life and  I have faced a lot of delays on some but does that mean I should give up? NOOOOOOO!!!  Although  life sometimes makes us think  of throwing in the towel there's no need to: keep pushing, keep believing and I'm sure u'll get there eventually!


Yes guys I know you probably read or heard some of my Thots this Thursday from someone or somewhere else before but I believe we continually need to give ourselves pep talks to keep at it ( GO HLAKU GO)  and it doesn't hurt to share good information more than once right! To end off my thots this Thurday I saw this pic on Instagram , not only is it super chic but it spoke to me as well so I'm also dedicating it to all my fellow hot mummies!



We can do it !!!#urawesome#loveu#dreamscometrue

P.S. Please share your thots and comments PLZZZZZ

Our first ever MOMMY MONDAY feature!!!!

Our first ever MOMMY MONDAY feature!!!!



As promised my finished KIM K highlighting and contouring look with the products I bought last Thursday. I was so proud of my make up its now FB ,Wassapp and I think Instagram profile pic. What do you guys think. Yay or Nay???



SO this Mommy Monday after a weekend lazying about with the family and indulging in a lot of unhealthy winter treats (soup and coffee and cakes), I decided to go back to gym. I love winter so much :staying indoors and the coats,layering and just winter fashion in general. But fact is, winter is not gonna be around for much longer. And I don't wanna be depressed and sad when people are looking hot and sexy in summer so I gotta work now for results and change. Yes its true and I know SUMMER BODIES ARE MADE IN WINTER!

I don't know bout you but I was not blessed with great body genes and I'm still struggling with baby weight especially since my pregnancies were so close to each other. 8  months apart to be exact. So although I would like to be a size 32 with abs and all, I doubt it will happen especially before September so I am aiming of loosing 8 kgs in this short 1 and half months ( Pray with me yall!) I know it won't be easy but we must try at least. So I've decided to exercise every Monday , Wednesday and some Fridays. I am also going back to a very minimal carb, veggie and fruit and protein diet. I tried it early in June and after just two weeks was seeing some improvement.

I KNOW ITS GONNA BE TUFF AND HARD WORK but I'm thinking about how depressed I'm gonna be come summer and I'm still big and I will use this to keep me motivated. I'm so serious this time round that I'm sharing my before pic with you guys. This will help me be more accountable since people will be involved in my journey this time round. I was an  avid yo-yo dieter and into fab diets growing up and I am also big on quick and easy results but working on doing it right this time. Also having this blog has made feel more focused and inspired to work harder on looking better.Fad diets I also believe are the reason I struggle a bit more loosing weight now and have a lack of consistency ...so here it goes my before pic . I will post another on this same date in August (13 August)and my last one in September the same date as well...hopefully there will be change. THE PRESSURE!!!              



  ( It was very difficult for me to share this pic especially with my tummy showing which I'm very self -conscious about....Feeling very vulnerable hence the shy smile)



To end of this Mommy Monday feature I would like to dispel the myth we as African woman were conned into believing growing up ;that its ok to be big after having kids cause o mosadi. You know how being fit and African bodies were equivalent to being overly voluptuous I  really don't think it still stands in this beauty conscious and driven society today especially for us  young mothers. If anything I believe that we are better mothers when we take care of ourselves. We make better role models to our kids especially daughters, we show our husbands that we care about their needs (its a fact men are very eye-sight driven creatures) and  also we also live longer and healthier. I really worry bout my toddlers Rethabile's eating habits and I believe they stem from me and if I make a change she will also have a healthier and better experience growing up.


This is not vanity driven its about a healthy ,happier and in turn prettier me. When you healthier, you look good and when you look good,you feel good and you carry yourself even better. Mommy's we deserve to be yummy mummys as african's as well.Obesity is common among our race and with it comes horrible dieseases and premature deaths. I don't know about you but I wanna be there when my daughters' graduate and get married (if Jesus has no returned yet that is).

Lets do it for us , our families and future generations. 

 Here's to not only my gyming and dieting but here's to all of us being healthier and better yummy mommies!!!

OOPS I DID IT AGAIN....

OOPS I DID IT AGAIN....


So I was super excited to share this morning cause yes ...I went shopping!!!...lol. You know us women and buying . And I also cause  now have a bit of an audience ,finally plucked up the courage to share my blog with a group I'm on called Mara Keng Ka Nanny e?

Shout out to all my fellow madams!!!


SO BACK TO THE BUSINESS AT HAND....SHOPPING! So I've recently become addicted to watching make up tutorials on YOUTUBE to help me in my quest of getting my groove back. This in turn has made me a make-up shopaholic.I keep telling my hubby I'm not gonna buy anymore make up or nail polish products but I'm so lying cause as soon as I see a tutorial and I look I wanna try I NEEEED to buy  something else !

Yesterday I went and bought a few goodies, 5 to be exact.



 I know there's only three....such a sad story can't find the other two items I bought,don't if I'm going crazy or if  I was robbed (SAD STORY:-( )

I got (jumping up and down) 1. Yardley Loose powder in Caramelised 2. LA GIRL Pro Conceal in Sands and 3. A Cala Kabuki brush. The items missing are a blending sponge and eye shadow brush (May their poor souls RIP where-ever they are). All the items were fairly priced cause as mother's we have to do beauty on a budget!!!There's nappies,milk and nannies to be paid so we gotta be wise!


So the look I wanna try is the KIM K highlighting and contour look. Lmao!!!! I HOPE I WILL GET IT RIGHT. Tonight is my brother-in-law bday dinner so what better place to debut my KIM K inspired look. Atleast it will be a home ,indoors with close family so if I look like a mess it won't be so bad....lol.I AM SUPER EXCITED to try the look and will share the pic before our FIRST EVER MONDAY MOMMY feature.


So below I'm posting my everyday work look so you can spot the difference when I post my Kim K look. I make it as natural as possible so its office friendly .I did however use my Garnier BB cream (instead of MAC foundation) and orangish blush today which I usually don't use so it's a bit different to other days. 


                 {Crazy face because ITS FRIDAY and because I can!!!(tongue out)}


Yesterday I also checked some videos as well on make up essentials for beginners. They were basically guiding us on the make up bag basics ever girl should have . Based on the three tutorials I watched, I still need the following items in my make up bag


1. Primer
2.A few brushes ,I think three (blending brush,spiky contour brush and eye shadow brush)
3. Liquid eyeliner for glam looks
4. More lipsticks (you can never have enough!!! )

Ja,I think that's about it. 

What do you have in your make-up bag and what else do you still need Fab Mommies? Or do you just not like or wear make up? 


Looking forward to hearing all your comments and inputs... 


Have a blessed weekend REMAIN POWERFUL, STRONG,WISE AND BEAUTILICIOUS-beauty inside and out! (PROVERBS 31 WOMEN)

How it's gonna work at starter Fasshionista Ma'

15:53 Starter Fashionista Ma' 0 Comments

Shooooooo....I'm having one of those days, was even thinking of not blogging today but trying to gain an audience so LET'S FOCUS!!!
I was super hyped and excited about finally starting my blog yesterday. The ideas were coming in BIG TIME so let me share with you some sweet features we gonna have here @starterFASHIONISTAMA' every Monday , Wednesday and Thursday ( obviously things will change as we grow and evolve.)

 SOOOOOOOOOOO over Man Crush Mondays and Women Crush Wednesdays.How about something more mind focused and inspiring. Don't get me wrong not hating on all those hotties out there ...neh!!!!

Monday will be declared ( in movie God voice...lol)

MOMMY MONDAYS


I have a full time nanny with weekend offs so I spend the whole weekend with my angels Lelo and Rere (see pic below )








ReRe full names: Rethabile Reagoboka Siele (meaning We are happy and Praise God.) 2 years 2 months

 Lelo full names: Kgalalelo Kamogelo Masego {meaning Glory Acceptance(she was an oopsie baby) Blessings} nearly 10 months
We will talk about how important choosing baby names is in one of my Mommy Monday future posts

 Basically Mommy Mondays will be sharing of parenting tips,what my angels got up to during weekend and Mommy stuff in general.GREAT RIGHT?

WISDOM WEDNESDAYS

Wisdom Wednesdays will involve the Word, inspirational quotes,motivation or research facts regarding a topic of high importance. The reason I chose Wednesday aside from the fact that, is yes it start with the same letter as Wednesday (which also applies for the other two features ) is that I started my blog on a Wednesday. I believe it was a wise thing to do.God gives us desires ,ideas and dreams and even though it seems impossible because He gave it to you U SHOULD ACT.That's wisdom to me...acting on your God given instructions,ideas etc hence WISDOM WEDNESDAY!


THOTS THIS THURSDAY


And lastly Thots this Thursday will basically be what Im mainly thinking about that Thursday (DDDDUUUHHH!). No seriously though, I will just be sharing my though for day .Wat dominated my mind that Thursday or leading to the Thursday .

But like I said the features are they as starting point , the topics features and the blog in general will obviously evolve as we grow. WE WILL GROW...Mark my words



So as a start my Thots this Thursday aside from getting more readership on the blog is what I mentioned earlier about God giving you ideas , desires and dreams. I dont know how many business ideas God has given me ....its really bad how we underestimate ourselves though hey. We always desire and even pray for more wealth (not money) and  purpose but when God gives us the tools ,ideas WE DON'T ACT!!!

Well my thot was mainly a note to myself that what ever God given ideas, desires and dreams I have in future ACT ON THEM!Regardless of how hectic and impossible the task seems.If He gave you the task at hand , He will also give you the ability ( Scripture to back me up Phil 2 v 13) ....definitely. That's the God we serve.

Someone might ask how do I know its a God given idea . Well God will never give you something that will hurt you or lead you away from Him. He will give you an idea for your good. Either it will bless you financially in the future or it will help you reach out and help other (THIS BLOG...hint hint) , basically it will be for your good and His glory.

SO MOMMIES lets act upon our God given ideas and dreams. Lets fight against fear and believe in impossiblities.

I'm very sure its possible with God, supportive hubbies and the will to ...will get there!  Still not sure if I will get tons and tons of followers but the hopefully whoever reads or gets ahold of my blogs will be inspired and entertained!!!
