Happy Easter weekend

by

I’m taking a break from my regular posting today so I can be with my family. My kids are off school and even hubby is home! We’re taking it easy and getting ready for Easter Sunday – stuffing eggs for our Easter Egg Hunt and helping my family get food ready. Oh, and I’m sleeping in!

I saw this picture and had to share it because this is what I fully expected our Easter Egg Hunt to look like!

Thankfully we’ve had a few nice days and I think we’ll be snow free for Sunday.

Happy Easter!

I’m taking a few days off to spend time with my family. The kids start school on Wednesday so we’re enjoying the last little bit of summer! I’ll be back next weekend with more advice and questions!

Happy Mother’s Day

by

I still remember my first Mother’s Day. I was pregnant with my daughter, enough that it was very obvious I was pregnant. Everywhere we went that day people said Happy Mother’s Day to me. It was the first day it finally hit me that I was going to be a mom.

My first Mother’s Day after she was born was the weekend she said ‘mama’ for the first time. She said ‘dada’ for a long time before, but it felt like my Mother’s Day present to have her say ‘mama’ for me. Of course, she still says daddy is her favorite!

I’ll be celebrating with the kids today, but I need your help… I’m out of questions! If you have a question you want me to answer right here on my blog, send me an email (mary (at) maryethompson (dot) com) or leave a comment here.

Thanks! And Happy Mother’s Day to you moms out there!

Happy Easter

by

I’m taking today off answering questions so I can spend the day with my family. We all get together for brunch. An Easter egg hunt for the kids, food, and time to visit family. It’s a pretty great day.

I wish you and your family a Happy Easter today.

PS Like the cupcakes? I figured this is something Charlie would have out for Easter at Bite Me!

Don’t forget, Curvaceous & Captivating is available now through Gumroad, or Tuesday everywhere else.

If you have a question for my next Q&A Sunday, make sure you comment here or send me an email (mary (at) maryethompson (dot) com) with Q&A in the subject. I’ll answer your question right here on the blog!

Merry Christmas!

by

Christmas is always a day of reflection for me. A chance to think back over the year and be thankful for all the things I’ve done. It’s also a good chance to think about the things that didn’t go the way I’d hoped and decide if I still want the same things, and if so, what I’ll do differently to get it.

But mostly, Christmas is a day for me to be happy. A day to enjoy time with my family. A day to see the joy on my kids’ faces when they find presents under the tree and get to open them all. A day to remember what life is like when we were kids. A day for fun.

Please go enjoy your Christmas. Be a kid again. Celebrate all the good things in life.

From my family to yours… Merry Christmas!

Happy Thanksgiving

by

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving today. 

I’m thankful for a lot this year, starting with still being alive! I’m thankful for my family and friends, for my doctors and nurses, for my job and every one of my readers. 

I’ve had struggles this year, just like everyone, but we came out of it just fine, and 2016 will be an even better year! 

What are you thankful for this year?
