My mom has always been there for me.  She’s taught me to love, to serve, to be kind and support others.  She’s a doer and an organizer.  My mom and I are a lot alike and I love that we both have the same love and passions to make a quilt or grab some paint and paint on a canvas.  I love sharing my life with her in quality ways that bring so much joy to my life.  I love watching her with her grandkids, she shows them so much love by taking the time out to color, play and bake with them.  When it’s Mother’s Day she’s the first person I think of because she gave me life.  For this, I am truly grateful.       Love, Mindy

If only the mother role came with some sort of manual or instruction guide…  Being a mom now myself, I have a complete respect for some of the heartache and struggles this beautiful woman went through in raising and providing for me.  Sometimes, doing the right thing is just a shot in the dark with mistakes along the way.  But this amazing woman led her parenting with instincts and a sense of nurturing that I always needed, even when I thought I knew better or needed different.  My mom was always the loudest cheerleader and well known for her whistle.  In any sporting event or awards assembly, I always knew she was there even when I couldn’t point her out in the crowd.  My mom resembles fearlessness and bravery that helps me everyday to be a stronger and confident person.  Her example and willingness to share her knowledge and all that she has to better others around her is simply amazing.

I love you Mama Sita!  Happy Mothers Day!     Love, Amber

  We have witnessed so many women around us that mother in ways that have left us in awe and inspired.  Thank you for your genuine examples and for the deep love you continue to show.  We hope everyone has had a weekend full of relaxation and an opportunity to share Motherhood with those you love most.

Happy Mother’s Day to all you beautiful women.

My little piece of heaven is right here when I’m organizing.  My life is packed with errands, cleaning, homework, running kids from here and there.  You name it… I’m most likely fitting it into my day.  Sometimes, the last thing we want to think about is doing bills, so out of everything, my number one goal is to keep my bills simple and easy. Because this system is simple, I instantly get a sense of clarity.

Step 1: Select a Binder.

I admit! I have a little crush over fun binders.  It makes reaching for the daunting bills tasks so much more fun! Wether you get a simple white binder and add your own printable insert in the clear cover or pick a cute patterned binder, I get giddy for creating that color inspiration and organization at the same time.  So today, I’m eager to share with you one of my favorite things that most people dread to organize and some of you may have not been given guidance on how to make this task simplified.
