Real talk

Its tough being a woman. and iv had panic attacks thinking about the little lady i am now raising. God trusted me with this beautiful little girl and now i need  to teach isla from a been there done that point of view. where to begin:


Be smart
  •  learn to be a good judge of character. learn to trust your gut and surround your self with the people that respect you and that have your best interest at heart. people that when you say "no" its "NO"  no questions asked. believe me they are out there. 
Make smart choice
  • i like to quote my on this and i followed her advice! " you can play with fire but not get burned"  i took from this different ways. You can hang with the rebels and not get wrapped up. You can do the whole drinking thing under age and not over do it. (please don't, but i cant be UN real and expect you NOT to do it because i know there is a huge chance you will. just know mommy is not and was not an underage drinker or even now!)
NEVER be too trusting
  • learn to know when something does not feel right. even when you think that there is no way out THERE is. please don't allow anyone to swoon you and make you believe things you don't feel is right.learn that this is a very scary world out there. learn to know who and what to trust. 
Don't be naive  goes hand in hand with the above
  • don't believe anything you hear or read. always do your research this works for life. :) 
 Be respectuful
  • There is nothing more attractive than manners. i feel that society has lost sight of this. learn to go out of your way to open a door, pick up a piece of trash. learn to mind you please and thank you's and learn to make eye contact always! when you are speaking with someone look them in the eyes. when you meet someone go for the handshake. learn to have a firm yet soft handshake. iv got compliments on this. you don't really think about it too much but these little things count. Address people with kindness and with respectful titles.  If someone shares details with you learn to keep it between you and whoever is trusting you with this. if all fails KILL THEM WITH KINDNESS!
Be confident
  •  know your worth without being too coincided. its much more beautiful when a woman or a man KNOWS they are beautiful but don't act it. don't be vain. be easy to approach. opens the doors more than you know. 
Domestic
  • Nothing is more impressive than a woman who can cook, clean, and get her hands dirty. So try to do things your self. Learn to use your resources so you dont have to rely on anyone. Mommy learned to jump a car, change a tire and many more things and its impressed a few people here and there. 
  • Be down to earth
  • Be worldly
READ READ READ for a passion not just because you have to. mommy loves getting carried away in her books. and its awesome! 

There is so much i will show you and we will cross that bridge once we get there. Its a scary world out here boo boo and there is no sugar coating. god help us!
