My Everyday Magic

Remember Spring?

Just as I was coming to terms with Fall, Summer came back for a day!! I do love her. I have ISSUES with fall. Everyone is all, “But it’s COOLER! And the pretty LEAVES! And the COZY SWEATERS!” and I’m all, “Give me back my flip-flops! It is certainly NOT too cold for a tank top! Whaddaya MEAN, the water park is closed??”.

It’s not that I don’t like fall. As a matter of fact, I like exactly 5 things about fall:

1) No humidity (very important for us curly-headed fairies)

2) Season Premieres!

3)Pumpkin-flavored things

4) Rutgers Football

5) Bringing out my BOOTS!

I would love fall, I really would, if it were not the harbinger of my enemy. My nemesis – nay, ARCHnemesis: WINTER. And proof positive with the first yellow leaf that I will not lie on my beach again for 8 MONTHS. If fall rolled right into spring and then back on into summer, I’d be there with ya, I really would. But yesterday, oh yesterday, it was WARM, and SUNNY, and BEAUTIFUL here in New Jersey, and I loved every minute. I am not going to ask you to help me love fall… It won’t work, because fall is not the problem. Tell me about wonderful, warm places I can fly my little fairy wings to, after Christmas, when winter is just too depressing to bear .

So here’s my magic:

~Posting Magic again!!  I have missed it. I wish I had a pic with my cute new short flirty haircut!!

~Spending the weekend in a gorgeous hotel in Washington DC for work, and getting paid big bucks to basically hang out!

~Seeing my daddy tomorrow!

~My awesome apartment and the sweetie who lives there with me, which my sister just CLEANED today! (The apt, not the sweetie. That would be weird.)

~Doing a fun new tarot spread!

~Loving working on my new business, and really knowing I am on the cusp of amazing things!

~The Sparkle Fairy feeling better about her Sparkle Baby

Love, Love, Love.

What’s your magic this fantastic weekend?

Free hugs from the Sparkle Fairy coming your way!

Well-Wishing Weekends

Seems like a good day to send out all sorts of positive vibes to those far and near, so that’s what I’m gonna do!

I’m sending well-wishes to:

* The 4 FABULOUS families that helped us celebrate Finn’s birthday last night. Thank you for making our evening so much fun and filling our house with so much laughter!

* To Sabrina and Sioux, as they mourn the loss of their dear friend Beth. I love you both and am sending you peace.

* To the Middle East for all the transitions they’re going through. May it be peaceful and for the highest good.

* To my doggie ~ who I’m not technically “supposed” to get attached to as she’s not mine yet ~ but I love her already and am hoping she joins our family very, very soon!

* To my parents, who I’ll talk to later today and who I talk to every Sunday.

* To every poster, reader, and fairy of My Everyday Magic. May something extra special happen to you today!

Magic

* The wonderful ninja pictures Finn’s friends (and mothers) drew for him that are now gracing our bulletin board and delighting him.

* Purple tulips!

* Spinach and strawberry salad!

* Trading in our very high-maintenance fish (5 adults and 12 babies) for a very low-maintenance orange beta ~ I am SO HAPPY about this!!!

* My new lemon tree!

* Still glowing from a wonderful evening full of wonderful people ~ and so glad we kept it small and intimate.

* Being pregnant means not being hung-over, and that’s always a bonus after a party!

Who are you sending well-wishes to this Sunday? May it be EXTRA SPECIAL! Just like YOU!

The Sparkle Fairy!

Well-Wishing-Weekends!

I’m in the need of some good vibes so today I’m sending out good vibes to others, as I know what I give out I also receive in turn. Sometimes the nicest thing I can do for myself is to do something nice for others ~ so here goes!

I’m sending LOVE and Well-Wishes to:

* My wonderful tribe of friends ~ it is such a magical community we’ve created for ourselves and our families. I feel infinitely blessed!

* My parents ~ who I chose for wonderful reasons. Thank you for helping me become who I am today!

* My beloved hubby ~ who always puts his family (and especially me) first. I’m wishing us continuous joy and peace as we bust out of our comfort zones!

* My wonderful, sweet little boys who teach me everyday exactly what it is to be of a higher vibration! Thank you for choosing me as your Mama!

* My cyber-sisters and the magical community here! Sometimes the most amazing support comes through our world-wide-web! Thank you all for your awesomeness!

* To anyone who I ever perceived as hurting me ~ I know you were just a part of the master plan I created for myself so I could learn, overcome, and become stronger! You are perhaps the most powerful angels of all.

My Everyday Magic

* The coming together of our Very-Fairy-Friday on August 27th! I’m so excited!!!!

* Reading about The Bliss Fairy’s experience passing out Free Hugs! (Scroll down to the bottom of the comments on THIS page.) Amanda, you’re inspiring!!!!

* Planning a girl’s night out this week to see “Eat, Pray, Love”! I haven’t been to a movie theater in close to 6 years!!!

* Watching my boys make their own potions and choosing their own crystals, flowers, and herbs ~ I love it!

* Feeling almost instantly better after writing out my well-wishes!!!

* Planning on a trip to the local garden shop as soon as I’m done posting Magic!

A May-Day Mission from The Sparkle Fairy!

When I was a child I celebrated May-Day by picking a bouquet of spring flowers for my neighbors, ringing their doorbell, then running away before they caught me. This is what I plan to do with my children today (and it’ll be really tricky as our neighbors have a REALLY long driveway!) and I encourage you to try it with your kids too. They’ll LOVE it and want to do it every year ~ and maybe they’ll even pass the tradition on to their kids! Happy May-Day!
