Hello Everyone!
It's been an extremely lengthy amount of time since I've written last. For that I apologize. I have some announcements to make though with regard to this blog.
The original idea behind this blog was in steps to becoming an Elegant Woman, Wife, and Mother. I intend to keep that same idea, but with some additions.
I will be making a weight loss journey type section of the site as well. I believe that it's difficult to be elegant when we do not feel comfortable in our own skins. I also believe that if we're not eating properly/healthy, then our family isn't either. While we may not have the ability to keep an eye on every single item they consume when they're not at home or with us, we can when they are with us.
This section will have updating on my statistics, as well as what I'm doing with recipes/meal plans/ideas in addition to exercising. It will incorporate the many things that I have tried and that I continue to do because of the success from doing them. It will also state things that I have read up on and that may work for members of my family.
I will also include what I'm working on with regard to my poise, fashion, makeup, and overall attitude.
I also hope to begin learning Spanish as a second language by the beginning of 2012. Not only does having knowledge in an additional language add "class", but it will also add marketable experience to my resume.
Also, as we are moving in the next couple of weeks, you can imagine the stress the entire household is under. Once we get into our newer temporary place, as we intend to purchase come spring, I will also add in ways to elegantly decorate.
I am using this situation, and the awful circumstances in which it is under, to force me into being the Elegant woman I aspire to be. I also am in great prayers that I will be able to use these situations to draw a closer relationship with Jessica, as well as the boys.
I hope to be able to begin the new changes by the 1st of December, 2011.
