Kings Hawaiian Project Mahalo Giving Thanks With Homemade Cards #ProjectMahalo

brandyellen — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 08:33:57 +0000

Teaching the importance of giving thanks is something I have thrived to do as a parent with all three of my children. Every year when my oldest had her family birthday party I would make note of which gift was from who on a piece of paper. This list of gifts with who they were from would later be used as my daughter and I sat down with construction paper, glitter glue, stencils, markers and crayons to create our own thank you notes. It’s a simple craft project that is also teaching a valuable life lesson; to give thanks for what we have and for those who give us gifts during any gift giving event. With my younger two, who are now four and six years of age, I have …

Thinking About Editorial Calendar and Blogging World in 2013

brandyellen — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 16:46:36 +0000

The year 2013 is just around the corner and with the New Year comes people celebrating all night long til that breath taking ball in Times Square, NYC drops with the countdown to midnight. At midnight you are to get a kiss from that love one, at least so I hear. With the New Year on the forefront of everyone’s mind so is the discussion of New Year’s resolutions; if you have been following me for the four years I have been online, then you will know that I do not make resolutions; what I do each New Year is revisit my goals to see where I stand with them and I set some new ones. Even though my main stream of income is being a NH Mom Blogger, and …

Hair Cut Night Was Last Week

brandyellen — Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:03:07 +0000

I am lucky that I have a long time family friend {may as well call her family} that comes to my house to cut the hairs off the heads of my kids and me. She is affordable, convenient and a great person to have for company when I am around kids all damn day. I try not to keep her too long with my rambling, but it’s hard some times. This past week I had plans for her to cut my hair and the boys hair. I dyed my hair a long time ago and am trying hard to let my hair grow out the orange/yellow that I dyed my hair in hopes for some cool blonde highlights in this black head of hair I have. So that is my …

I Became Guilty of Being Somewhat Lazy

brandyellen — Sun, 23 Sep 2012 11:14:43 +0000

I guess using the word lazy isn’t really fair when you think about being Mom to three kids and working from home, but it’s the only word I could really think of to describe the habit I got into for a long time. You see, over the years my daughter’s Dad just sort of handled everything. I got into the habit that he was great at being in control so why bother? Then as my daughter got older and we formed a closer bond of communication, I found out that she didn’t really want me to take the “back burner” anymore. I must start off by explaining a bit of a back story as to why it was just easier for me to let him take care of everything for …
