Rainbow Faery
*LOVE LOVE LOVE
*Feeling the way my heart opens when I consciously decide to allow love in.
*Being okay with receiving love and magic from those around me, and from the universe.
*Accepting that I AM who I AM, and loving ALL of me, the good and the, well not-so-good lol
*Remembering that my children chose me for specific reasons, and that I am always doing what I can with what I have in every moment.
*Making heartfelt connections with everyday “strangers” everywhere I go, seeing the best in them, and knowing that deep inside, they are just like me, creatures who love to feel loved.
*Excitement and anticipation of all things wonderful to come in the immediate and distant future.
*Obama is coming to Guam!
*Being barefoot outside! (Okay those of you in single digit temps can just live vicariously through me lol)
*Recognizing my strengths, all the good that I do and have done, and celebrating myself by feeling deserving and goddesslike! I have resisted this so much before…of being worthy and DESERVING good things, as if it were owed to me in some way…but now I can look at all the awesomeness that I put out there just by being alive and happily receive what magical abundance and love coming my way!!! And EVERYONE, every. single. one. of us is worthy and deserving of love and magic. Don’t wait up on others to celebrate yourself!

* Sharing with the Rainbow Faery that I have indeed been outside barefoot in single degree temps!
* My “30 Days of Nature” Experiment being almost completed and deciding to extend it to “365 Days of Nature!” I’m HOOKED!
Holy **** Kate! You are a goddess for sure…barefoot in single degree temps…365 days of nature…”you’re an inspiration to all of us!” (just realized thats a line in finding Nemo…at the sharks fishaholics anonymous meeting…LOL)
OOH and I saw the orange moon too!!
Oh my goodness, Rainbow Faery, that photo is stunning!!!! I cannot WAIT to meet you and dress up in faery wear in June! Woohoooooo!!!!
*My childhood – growing up in national parks.
*My parents – their dedication, constant love and support.
*My home – it really reflects who I am and inspires me.
*My sons – who remind me to live in the moment and have fun.
*My husband – who despite being very different from me, totally supports me being who I am.
*Trees – they are just so magical.
*My art – I love that all my art really has a living, loving quality to it.
*Tea – it tastes great, slows you down and warms you up.
*My friends – they are wise, positive, and I truly can depend on them.
*The Haitian people – having lived for more than 3 years in neighboring Dominican Republic, this earthquake in Haiti really hit me hard emotionally. My years there really showed me the huge hearts, deep faith and strong resilience of the Haitian people. They are some of the most wonderful people I’ve ever met – truly. I had a dream last night about Haiti and I can’t stop thinking about it. Sending much love their way.

seeing so much magic!
trusting my daughters strength.
navigating illness without fear.
getting nothing done today and rolling with it.
having help when I needed it.
being pleasantly tired and looking forward to bed-the most magical place of all!
You know, I’ve really come to appreciate those days where all my plans basically go to hell and I get “nothing” done…I really believe in the energy that is there…that it is preparing for when the time is perfect for me to REALLY get things done. Rolling with it and trusting that I wasn’t really supposed to do xyz on this particular day has really set me free from my old default of “man today sucks I haven’t gotten anything done” LOL
Shell, I COMPLETELY agree~ rolling with it feels sooo much better!
fun for all playdate today!
getting a puppy on Saturday, I can’t wait!!!
our blog is up and running!
I love our blog’s name and am eager to post more!
a good flow today!
my hubby, who knew I had to be out early this morning, uttering those magic words: “How can I help?”
an unusually mellow day at our homeschool co-op, and meeting new friends there
a 4 year old I’d just met sitting on my lap
dark chocolate
my little boy’s hand in mine
a green smoothie
being told I look pretty today (I did dress up a little bit)
finally ordering the CD/DVD cabinet we’ve been talking about for some weeks
being welcomed home by affectionate kitties
Picking up on a common thread weaving its way through many of the posts today: how we women feel guilty or lacking when we need extra rest, or don’t get everything done, or somehow fall short of our own expectations. I can so relate.
And how we encourage and inspire each other in this forum, and are waking up together to our divine natures.
My affirmation today: “I go forward in the flow of life, unhurried and unworried.”
I REALLY like that affirmation!!!
