Build Your Story

I heard a story that stuck with me. A little girl walks into the woods. She sees two paths in front of  her. Confused she pondered what path she should take. An old man walks by and the little girl asks for his help. "What path should I take?"

"Where are you headed?"

"I don't know."

"Then, it doesn't matter."

Do we know where we are headed? If we don't any path will get us there. I started thinking about my children. As they start this school year, do they know what they want to accomplish?

Tonight we did our first locket party with a group of amazing little girls. One of my favorite teacher's, Mrs. Baird helped the girls pick the things they wanted to work on. She then helped them  pick actions they could work on, like reading 20 minutes a night or practicing the piano 4x a week. Next the girls picked charms to represent each goal.

Take some time to help your children prepare for this school year. Help them  shoot for the stars!

Welcome!

Tonight is a first for me. I am so excited that I am having a hard time closing my eyes and going to sleep. 

Origami Owl has had a wait list to become a designer. The response for our lockets became so great the only way to cover the demand was make a wait list to sell it. After Mother's Day, the company had to freeze new designers to make sure everyone was getting the best service. June 17 the wait list opened back up.

 I have a group of amazing women on the list. Each week, I check their number and see how close they are to becoming designers. And tonight something HUGE happened..... My first girl got her wings! I am so proud. I can't wait to see her rock this! 

Origami Owl has been a blessing in my life and my family's life. It has helped us financially and has helped me teach my children how to build something amazing. It allows me to help others find their passion and share their story. How could I not love that?

What's stopping you from chasing your dreams? If you love people, want to make more money, and love our beautiful lockets, what is stopping you from joining me in this incredible journey? I want to help you chase those dreams. I will be there every step of the way. 

Let's build something everyone will remember!

I love being a mom. It has given me purpose, it brings me love, and helped add a layer of fat to my thighs that keeps me warm in the cold winter months. But most importantly, it allows me to wake up to 7 beautiful smiles every day. And sometimes, if I am lucky enough a few hand prints on my shirt.

Does it get any better than love? I don't think so. The Beatles had it right when they said all you need is love. And chocolate. 

Rise Above

I believe we are all princesses. Sure at some point we grow to be the Queen but there is a magic in being young, finding your way, and searching for happily ever after. I have learned a lot from my princess friends. 

Little Mermaid- change is good. It can be painful, it will hurt, and it definitely won't go the way you planned. But getting out of your comfort zone and following your heart will always lead you in the right direction.

*take away- don't throw away your gifts to get what you want. You were given those gifts to get what you want any way. 

The Princess and the Frog- be true to your dreams, your family, and yourself. Your family might not always physically be with you but the love they feel for you never leaves. 

*take away- never lose your passion. And    your prince could look kinda creepy at first. Give him a chance. 

Cinderella- I know you are waiting for me to say a shoe can change your life, blah, blah, blah. The truth is I learned from Cinderella that a little house work never killed anyone. In fact, it builds character. And yes, when you feel good about yourself, others see your inner beauty.

Take away- karma happens. Ask the step sisters.

 Tinker Bell- Good girl, bad attitude. It is okay to have feelings and get mad. 

Take away- when you try to hurt someone else you end up hurting yourself. And don't trust liars, they don't change.

Tangled- see the good in people. True, some will hurt you but the ones that love you more than make up for it.

Take away- always have a good frying pan and a good hair cut. 

Snow White- feel your heart so full of love, hate has no place. That is the secret to youth. Hate is the magic apple that sucks life and goodness from your life.

Take away- short people rock! Enough said.

Beauty and the Beast- being different is good. Heck, being different brings the best life has to offer.

Take away- Readers expand their world until you believe anything can happen. And then it does.

Most important is that you make your destiny!
