Motherhood is such a wonderful joy. It is such a joy that can't even be explained. I absolutely love being a mom, my son is my whole world.  He truly is a blessing from God and an answer to my many prayers. But let's face it, motherhood is hard!

Thank God it is Friday! I sure hope the weekend goes better than this week. I have had a rough week friends. I have been under the weather. I have had to go to the doctor twice this week and have a follow up on Tuesday, so your prayers are very much appreciated. Also please pray for my dad. He is having some health issues. With God all things are possible. Let's recap my favorites from this week...

This week has been one of those blah weeks! It has felt like the longest week ever. I guess because it has rained all week long and summer classes have started. I'm exhausted and need a vacation. Anyway let's recap my favorites from this week.

My son Raylan loves Cupcakes. I believe they are his favorite snack to date. He always says "Mommy make a cupcake!" That sweet little voice is hard to resist. I love to bake, but I get tired of making the same flavors over and over again. That gets old after a while. So one day I decided to change things up a bit and try out a new flavor. Chocolate Cherry Kool-Aid Cupcakes...

 As a woman, I love fashion! What woman doesn't enjoy dressing up and feeling good about themselves? Although a little retail therapy is always nice, it can get very expensive.  I for one certainly can't afford to go broke on trying to make myself look good. This is where Accessories come into play.

Summer is quickly approaching and I couldn't be more excited! My son Raylan is 2 and will be able to have loads of fun in the sun this summer. So I have taken the time to round up a few things to get Raylan and your toddler ready for Summer Fun. All of these items are very affordable and won't break the bank.

I'm a kid at heart! I love Disney Movies and yes, I still watch them. Now that I have Raylan, that means I get to watch them even more. One of my all time favorite Disney movies is The Little Mermaid. So my friends and I joined together to bring you a little Under the Sea Style inspiration since summertime is approaching.

Friday! I am so glad that you are here,  This has been one long and rough week. I have been under the weather all week, I'm guessing due to allergies. Not to mention, it's finals week. I just submitted a 10 page final. Oh what fun! Prayers for a good grade please. Anyway let's rewind to the positive and happy things from this week.

1) Last weekend, I made my first ever Bible Cake for a customer. I didn't have a Bible Cake Pan, so I had to carve the cake by hand. I love how it turned out!



I also let Raylan pick out some gifts to buy for Justin. Since Raylan and Justin are both car guys, it was only natural that Raylan pick out a car for his daddy. I think thoughtful gifts like these are the best. They come from the heart! It really made Justin's day!

April was a good month. I feel like it was a long month, but good nonetheless. Rainy days always makes time go by a little more slowly. Like any month there is good and bad, but the good always outweighs the bad. We are blessed by the best! It was a great blogging month too. Here are some of my favorite posts from the month of April...
