Back home
By Zura | April 22, 2008

I am home from my trip. It was so good to be with my kids. I need a kid fix pretty often
Here’s a picture of me and my granddaughter, Bella, at her 2nd birthday party. She is such a diva!! I’m learning a lot from her. Seriously! She was born assuming that she has the right to have what pleases her and she takes no guff of anyone, let alone her three older brothers.
I was not born with that innate sense of what’s good for me. So I’m watching her and adapting. Many times I find myself in a situation that feels uncomfortable and I don’t know what to do, so I think “What would Ms Bella do?” When I do that, it’s always easy to find what I want and to just ask for it. The trick is believing that I have the right to ask for it.
I’m glad to be back to my blog and have some exciting things coming up soon. I’m late with the newsletter this week - so sorry! But stay tuned because as soon as I adjust out of vacation mode, I’ll have some really fun things to share!

Glad you had a good time, you deserve it! Bella is getting so big so fast! We can always learn some valuable lessons from little ones. I have been relearning that I do deserve what I want and I am capable of getting it. Miss you! I’m still trying to figure out how to make that video, but if I don’t get it (the program that is!) soon, I will just reshoot it and show you how I’ve organized my art space. Hugs!

I am happy to hear that you are relearning that you deserve what you want. It is hard for many of us, especially women, to really get that, I think. If you need any encouragement in that area, I will gladly cheer you on, my sweet friend! Looking forward to the video!!
