Motherhood is such a Sweet & Sticky battle. From the very beginning, you’re blissfully in love at first sight, overwhelmed with joy and yet terrified at the same time. I’m not sure there is anything that feels quite like parenthood.
You share your Sweetest win with the world, and it begins to get Sticky…
#Momlife is a whole new animal to you and you may not see very many more wins for awhile… But I am here to tell you that everything you do is a #MomWin. You’re doing it. You’re giving those babies your best every day and you’re working as hard as you can.
Trust me when I say that there may seem like more Sticky times than Sweet {especially in the Toddler years} but every single one is really a #Win.
I’ve accepted my Sweet & Sticky
I’m making the most of this rollercoaster called #Motherhood every day. From every shoe thrown at the back of my head to every epic battle negotiation at the dinner table to “just take ONE bite” I’m finding ways to win. I left my spacious office to work at home and I am depressed about the plummet my paycheck took, so I am finding ways to earn Mommy Money at home. The clutter and constant mess of #Toddlerlife drive me insane, so I am conquering new challenges every day.
#Momfails can turn into #MomWinning
Let’s do this. Let’s get a handle on the Sticky and celebrate the Sweet. From one chocolate mess Mom to another, join me in A Cotton Kandi Life….As I tackle one life struggle at a time…
Life Organizing…
If I step on one more damn lego… Armed with my label maker, checklists, dry erase charts, simple solutions and expertise in small system efficiency I’m going through my own life style week by week and sharing my little tips and tricks with my readers. I’m sharing how I Build Schedules that increase Production, how to prepare for some BIG life changes in simple steps like Packing your Hospital Bag or Merging your kids’ closet when a new baby comes home.
Toddler Life…
The epic showdown of wits begins at 7am… Wyatt the Aquarius and Cash the Cancer, their little behavioral quirks erupt daily but then melt my heart. Tag along as I conquer behaviors like Teaching Toddlers to be Clean, Gentleman Training and even some Products that help a busy mom out!
Making Mommy Money…
I think the hardest life change for me after becoming a mom was the transition OUT of the working world and into a home office. Moms contribution to the household {no matter your transitions in life} is a whopper when that baby arrives! I have no less financial obligations, but I now also have children to raise… So I have to be clever about earning an income from my couch. I do still own and run my own company Green-Eyed Girl Productions {now from home and on a much smaller scale} which is my main financial contribution… but I have created an awesome passive income for myself online and through apps on my Smart Phone which I affectionately call Mommy Money…
