Do not be anxious for tomorrow... Enjoy today!

So... I haven't blogged in like forever and I have really been missing it.At the moment I am thinking of a title for this post but nothing springs to mind. I suppose it will come to me eventually...

Life over the last few weeks has been a little strange. I have kinda been in limbo waiting for the first three weeks of July to pass. The last day of my 'darkness' is the 18th - tomorrow - as this will be signify three years since I buried my first born. I don't mean to sound morbid but those dates in July will always hold significance for me. However, I have decided to make the acknowledgement of these days a positive thing. My hubby and I have decided that the 14th of July will always be a day for our Colborne family to spend doing something up building and fun. That way we keep our mind on how blessed we are to have each other.

As the days and weeks go by, I notice subtle changes in my concentration and energy levels. My clothes are getting looser and looser and I will soon be lighter than I have been in years. For me, introducing friends, family and colleagues to Herbalife is so exciting because they get to see and feel the effects of a healthy way of living. To the sceptics out there, the only way to dispel your misconceptions is to try it and see how well it works. When you see and feel the transformation, you will never look back!

My daughter has discovered that she can climb on her chair to get to the things on the counter. As if putting child locks on the cupboards was not enough, now we have to make sure the counters are childproof!
All my life I have been interested in human behaviour. Watching this little human grow up and develop both physically and mentally has been very interesting. The way she makes the connections in her mind and observing how these become evident in her actions is so fascinating and entertaining.'Cause and effect' - a principle we take for granted is so fundamental to a child's development. I watch her with amusement as she smears the yoghurt all over her and the table top, much to her father's horror. I observe how she spreads it around, gathers it in her hands and watches it falls to the floor. Then she gets onto the floor and smears it some more. At the same time, I watch her father's body language and facial expressions as he tries very hard to suppress the urge to clean baby, floor and table which are now covered in butterscotch yoghurt. Then I realise that learning has taken place for all three of us and it was a wonderful experience!
 After a very active day just like any other, Karly fell asleep in my arms on the bed. It occurs to me that we spend so much time in the past and the future, that we so often forget to just be in the present and enjoy the moment. A simple thing like hearing her breathe and feeling her little heart beat had such an impact on me. There was a time in my life when I longed to experience that.We so often miss those moments that can take our breath away because we are too busy with seeing to our future happiness. Happiness is right now with friends, family and the good times and laughter we share.
Having said that, I have a husband waiting for me with whom I need to spend some quality time.
