GOAL PLANNING FOR WORKING MOMS AND DREAMERS!

January 8, 2020 by Nadiya No Comments
A

s a working mom of two toddlers, there have been plenty of days in the past I found myself barely surviving. Hands down those days were more than those I could say I was on my “A game”.  I would start my day with a jolt, praying to get showered before my children awoke.  After throwing myself together, I would run out the door in a suit, wet hair, a child on one side and another on my hip, both in their footed pajamas. The drop off would initiate the start of my hour and a half commute and pumping milk in my car. My entire day would be in “GO mode” so I could return on time, pick them up and start their bedtime routine.  By the end of my day I could not fathom even doing the smallest chore let alone start on a new endeavor.

Baby Beach Essentials!

May 31, 2019 by Nadiya No Comments

know what you all are thinking… it has only turned Spring! This mommy is a planner and you know I am going to make the most of every free minute I have with my family.  Therefore I have already organized all of my summer essentials so I can just grab them and go when that hot sunny day arrives!  Truth be told, when I first starting researching products for Amani, now two and a half, I had no idea what I was doing.  I overbought on several items, buying a ton of “cute” floats, hats, and bathing suits which were not practical and did not serve any purpose when it came down to it. The unicorn float was adorable on the ground.  Once we got “him” in the water, baby positioned, he was very unstable and his pointy head was right there in Amani’s face.  She was barely able to enjoy the water.  Needless to say he did not make the cut – not even for a picture since that would require letting go with one hand! Let’s not forget about the floats where your baby can sink down, slump over or slip right through the bottom… every parent’s nightmare!  Since then, I have wised up and narrowed down my essentials checklist dramatically.  Also, you can find many items at the thrift store including: bathing suits, sand toys (often new), puddle jumpers, terry robes, towels and blankets, and more.

Spring & Summer Car Preparation

May 27, 2019 by Nadiya No Comments

t goes so fast“I is what our friends say who have grown children. Looking at my mischievous two-nager, chattering sentences away, I can see that. Whether we are stay-at-home mom or “working” mom all of us are working moms and our free time with our children is at a premium!  Between diaper changes, cleaning, deep cleaning de-cluttering and organizing,  grocery shopping, cooking, appointments, birthdays, school activities, homework and sports how much quality time do we actually have?  For 90% of the hours my children are awake during the week, mommy is not home.  Truth be told, mommy missed most of “baby’s firsts” because she had to go to work.  That is the reality for many of us today.

As a working mom, I got no time to take on no mo’ jobs! What I get a kick out of is that this little beauty is the smartest kid in her building! They have to make a curriculum just for her... BUT her mommy took the ZERO Effort preschool homeschool approach. What did you do the teachers asked me? I said - nothing! Which was 99% true. In today’s video I share how I got my daughter reading at 2 using unconventional and unpopular learning strategies!

The torturous journey to finally becoming a mommy The torturous journey to finally becoming a mommy seems so far in the past yet just like yesterday. For some it comes so easily but for so many others it just doesn’t! Today we celebrated my two daughters. For each one a tree was planted. Today was EV’s day for hers to be watered with the special water we saved for so long!  Hope you all had a good one. #momma  #mothersday #girlmomlife
