"Be my Valentine!"

How do you say I love you? I use books to help carry my message of love and inspiration. This weekend I have been reading "Love is me buying you this book" by Waldo Pancake, "I Love you Because" by Marianne Richmond, "50 ways to say you're Awesome" by Alexandra Franzen, "I love you" Sourcebooks Casablanca. All of the above books are sitting close to my bed. This weekend, I read them to my kids and my husband before they went to bed. In the morning, I read one page to make me feel the love. Below are my favorite quotes and they are inspirational me. Thes quotes really made me smile.

This excerpt from "I Love You" book:

"Love life and life will love you back. Love people and they will love you back." written by Arthur Rubinstein

Excerpt from "50 ways to say you are awesome" book:

"I'm so happy we're sharing the planet in the same Historical Era.!"

Excerpt from " I Love You Because" book:

I Love you for accepting the various versions of me... silly me, questioning me, whiny me, happy me and irrational me.

Excerpt from " Love is me buying you this book":

"When we have a hug I always imagine you're doing one of those looks over my shoulder like in a soap opera, hence me always hugging you when we're between two mirrors."

Everyday I will make it a habit to read one page to help me get inspired. I will be exercising my mind and my heart to to help me show the love to all. I urge you to think about buying love books to inspire you and your family. Give a love book to someone with a personal note and make them smile too this Valentines Day.

These books can be found online at Amazon.com, Barnes and Nobles as well as your local retail stores. I hope you enjoy your Valentine's Day talking about love and giving hugs. I wish you a very happy Valentine's Day 2014.

State Testing and a letter of encouragement

State Testing CCSS SBAC is starting next week for our area. This semester, my son's fourth grade teacher has asked that I write him a letter of encouragement. She gave us a few weeks notice. I have, in the past few days, written a few handwritten notes of encouragement. Then, I would wake up the next day realizing that it was not loving enough and second guessing myself. This task has been a little hard for me. Then, the final email reminder came from the teacher. It read as follow: "This is just a friendly reminder to please send a letter of encouragement to your student to be opened this coming Monday, May 1. Students will be given the letters prior to taking their first test." Oh my goodness, I have to get it done!!! So, I put on my big girl pants and re-wrote the letter for the 5th time. This time, I made it classroom friendly and left out lots of the I love you's and all the mushy stuff I had written before. The letter went something like this: ...

How to make a California Mission Model.

Learn how to make a California Mission Model at home or in the classroom. We made this project as part of the California Public School Fourth grade requirement in a group setting. Continue to read on to get the supply list and instructions for a successful mission model. On an ordinary day, I was reminded how amazing kids really are when there are no limits. Just as equally amazing are the teachers who guide them and teach them everyday. I am very thankful for the opportunity that I was given as a parent volunteer. The day was like a beautiful dance where parents, teachers and students came together for a common goal. The goal was to make models of California Missions from a simple picture and lots of cardboard. I can honestly say the goal was reached and everyone deserved an "A".

Field Trip to Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament - Buena Park

My family and I were invited to Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament for an afternoon of entertainment. I want to tell you about our journey into the Middle Ages via Medieval Times. It began at the will-call window with the kind clerk suggesting we visit their museum for a small fee. We said yes immediately to exploring their Middle Ages Museum called “The Museum of Torture”. It sounded interesting and educational to see Medieval exhibits. As we headed to the museum, a women dressed in traditional Middle Ages attire adorned all of us with blue crowns. We were assigned Don Alberto Del Mau as our Knight for the tournament. This meant we would have to cheer and support our Knight into battle. Don Alberto Del Mau is a young squire who is renowned as a champion of the defenseless. Armed with this knowledge, we set out to visit the Museum of Torture. Inside the museum, we realized that living in the Middle ages was a terrible time for all who crossed Royalty. ...
