It is more often than not that I hear so many parents say "they were born just yesterday! I can't believe how fast they grow up!!!" Is it possible that the years seem to slip between our fingers because we are all so busy with other things that seem important but in the big picture, they are not important at all? I heard a mentor say this weekend that there is no such thing as multi tasking. I've come to believe this is true. I've made it a point to make choices that will affect my daughter and future children forever. Over the past 4 years, I have learned so much about how we speak to our kids, the words we use, the healthcare system, the education system, and wealth building. Those may seem a bit unrelated, but what we teach our children will development into their belief systems and can affect their entire life!!!! Spending quality time with our children is so important - this means being present, not just sitting in the same room with the tv on or typing on our phones. True presence is what our children crave. simply time with us. Perhaps spending quality time with our kids on a daily and weekly basis will make the years not go by so quickly!
I feel I've truly enjoyed every day, week, month, and year with Grace. she is growing up quickly but not to the point that I wish it would slow down or that I've missed out. Richard and I have made choices that might not be the status quo or what "everyone else is doing," but quite frankly, we dont' want an ordinary life, we want a little bit "extra"- an extraordinary life. I read in a book that good is the enemy of great. So here's to a great life and spending more quality time with our family. Here's Grace having some frozen yogurt today and simply enjoying the time together.
Just a little under 6 mos ago, we were introduced to Rovia/Worldventures, the fastest growing travel company in the U.S. and now the #1 travel company in the industry. We are doing business with companies such as American Airlines, FunJet Vacations, RCI-Wyndam, Disney, and just recently Southwest Airlines. Southwest has never been on any search engine website, but they have changed that philosophy b/c of the growth we are experiencing. What would I call that? A CLUE! This past weekend, Richard and I were recognized on stage with 8 other people for another milestone in the business. There were 1,100 people at this event and there were only 8 of us on stage for this particular level! WOW!!! We are so blessed to be hooked up with some of the best in the industry, mulit millionaire mentors who work with people like Tony Robbins, Bob Proctor, and Robert Kiyosaki! So here we are: 1 step away from residual income!!! Residual income is such a blessing...it's money coming in every month whether you are working or not! This is a huge milestone in our business and we are so excited about what the future holds!!!
Grace and I went to My Gym last Saturday for an open house that had a very special guest- ELMO!!!!! she was so in awe of him and loved every minute. We had a really great time playing on and with everything there. I really thought she would cry or fuss when I put her in Elmo's lap, but she didn't!! She just sat there cool as a cucumber and held his hand! it was great. Needless to say we took a really great nap that day!!
