Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!!

I picked up the movie"Mary Poppins" at the library last week, thinking it would be a fun weekend treat for the four of us to watch together.

It was quite a slumber party! Last night the four of us snuggled up in "the big bed" together with a big bowl of popcorn, a little cup of M&M's and our milks (of course).

Art nor I have watched "Mary Poppins" in over thirty years at least. It was a real treat to watch such talent and creativity. Lily and Jack were transfixed on the film and all the incredible magic of Mary Poppins. It was such a happy, fun time!!

If you are looking for a fun family night, and you have little ones at home - I highly recommend this great family film. I love Mary Poppins!! :) How could you not??

The Coolist Accessory on The Market - EVER!

Take a look around. Not a lot of people have one and if they do then they certainly are not using it. It should be coveted like a Chanel bag.

You are mistaken if you think D&G, Versace or Stella are what is going to make you shine! Shine! Shine!

Gucci handbags, Prada sunglasses, Louis flip flops are all very chic and "oh, so glam!" Of course Saint jewelry is waaaaaaaay up top when it comes to "look'n good!" ;)


A...SMILE

Seriously. Please smile! All the time. Till it hurts and you want to cry but you can't cry because you are obsessed with smiling!

OH! I can't tell you what a difference it makes when you smile. Even if you don't like your teeth - SMILE! Smile w/ your mouth closed....JUST SMILE!! Make it stick. Work on it.

I am so, so, so tired of walking around town looking at people who are dead. People who think that if they smile their "cool factor" will drop into the red. Or people that refuse to make eye contact and connect with another person in fear of having to stop what they are doing and actually engage. Hey, I am guilty of it myself. I also don't like it when I behave that way....not cool.

There is nothing more uplifting then having someone that you don't know just smile at you and say "hi!" You don't ever see them again - but they just gave you a very special gift. They got you to smile too. That is really the coolist. I love that.

One of the inspirations behind my jewerly is getting people to smile and creating connections. Should your little bee earrings make someone smile at you - that just makes my day!

Smiling is what it is all about.

First Day of School Blues

The day that I have been dreaming about for the last few years has finally arrived. My little Lily started her first day of school today.

I must admit I was so excited for her to start school. Thinking it would take some of the load off me and hoping to have some quality one on one time w/ my son who is only 15 months younger than she.

After walking her to her classroom and leaving the parking lot I had this hollow feeling in my heart. All these emotions starting rising. "She's gone. This is really strange. I miss her. I am sad. Will she be okay?"

Jack and I spent the morning together trying to figure out our new roles as Lily's absence has us both a little weirded out. We made our way just fine - albeit a little more quietly and less chaotic! :)

We were both so excited to pick Lily up and eager to hear all about her first day. She was so excited to see Jack and I and that made us feel really great. It looked like she had a great day. It was all going so well. Then we walked into the house and she spouted out a few bossy words and I had to send her to her room. Then she had a nice little 'never ending' melt down. Aaahhhh... my reality check!

I can't wait for school tomorrow! ;)
