Dear John Letter to my Scale...

Dear scale, I'm so sorry but I have to break up with you. I used to hang on your every word, and value your opinion, but lately I really feel like you have been with holding important information from me! All you seem to do is discourage me and my friend's!! You never tell me how much muscle I have gained, how much fat I have lost or tell me awesome I look in my pants. However you'll be happy to show me how big my butt has gotten and make me feel like an elephant! So today I am parting ways with you. I know its difficult, but you will be ok.

In all seriousness my recommendation on the scale is to hide it or get rid of it completely! It doesn't paint a accurate picture of what is actually going on inside your body. It can't tell you all the awesome changes your body is undergoing every minute of the day. It can't tell you if you have lost fat or gained muscle. It can't tell you how amazing you look in your pants and it can't show you the love you deserve for a job well done. So kiss the scale good bye and say hello to a tape measure, pictures and smaller clothing. You'll get more reward out of those in the long run!

Improving Communication. Shared meals create an additional avenue of communication for families.

Help! My toddlers like to HIDE my Stuff!

If you have a toddler you'll totally relate to this pic/story! Especially if your toddler ❤'s to get into your things and hide them . Yesterday we decided to go downtown  to pick up some essentials for the family. When I went to pay I found that my bank card  was missing ! I searched and searched and couldn't find it ! We were super far from home, so I called my hubs  who saved the day by transferring funds  over to my business card. That way we could at least get some grocery's  for the family without having to return home. To add an extra twist to the day, my bank decided to flag ⚠ my purchases for fraud !! SAY WHAT?!! Thankfully my son  was there to help out while I made several phone calls to the bank to get everything fixed. Once we got home I went searching for the missing card.
