What's important...

So this is a question that I seriously battle with every minute of every day... Why you ask??

Because I constantly want to rip myself away from playing with my daughter to do other things... Such as cleaning, cooking, bathing....

But then I remember that every minute she is growing. That laundry isn't going to change... The dishes aren't going anywhere... However she is. She started walking a few weeks ago and now I feel as though I have lost my little baby and am now starting the toddler phase. As excited as I am to start this journey with her I also look back and long for the days of her napping on me.

Which brings me to today's moment :)



I spent an hour just staring at her while she slept in my arms, and while a few tears rolled down my cheek thinking of how quickly she is growing. I wished that I could freeze this moment. I know the day will come where she will not want to cuddle me and I am sure more than a few tears will roll at that moment... But for now I have this... My cuddly little toddler.

So I guess the point of this post is... Stop rushing. Stop thinking of what you "could" be doing. Instead think of what you ARE doing! Realize that the universe has put you here, in this moment, for a reason. And just like that this moment will be gone and when you look back are you going to think "gosh I wish I didn't play with my child and did the laundry instead..."

Here are a few moments from this week :)

Here we go again...

So for those of you who know me know that isn't my first rodeo...I mean Blog! I have attempted this many times before but I finally feel as though my life has come to a place where I can fit this in and commit to it. 

So why Green and Glamour? Because I feel like that is where I fit in. I am right in the middle...I want the designers and be a little crunchy :) I make my own homemade beauty products and cleaners all while rocking my Loubs! 

It has been a little over a year since I had my daughter and I have finally gotten my groove back! (Woo Hoo) I think a lot of it has to do with the fact I got my monthly friend back (TMI?) but also I have made a sort of vow to treat myself with the same care as I do with my daughter. I try to provide her with the best but when it comes to me I would probably spend the whole week in the same outfit (no lie). So I need to kick it up a notch and get my Glamour back and I think this Blog, and hopefully all of you, will hold me accountable! 

So here's to a new journey on a more Green and Glamorous path!
