Nicole's Favorite Family Quote of 2012

Recently, I was working on chiropractic billing in my home office. I love working from home because the kids are usually in the room, one or more chatting about life.

The best thing I overheard this year was a conversation between Cassidy and Emily.

Emily, "Have you ever noticed that relationships get fixed at our house?" Cassidy, "Everything gets fixed at our house....PEOPLE get fixed at our house."

My heart just felt so full in that moment. It is such a simple formula, be here and present for all who walk through the doors, listen and accept people unconditionally whether you agree with them or not. Love people, just love them. It seems that especially teens are not getting the love they need. Kids need adults in their lives in addition to their parents. How often have I mentioned that I love the village that helps raise my children? Yes, I love the adults that nurture and care for my children as I would when I am unavailable and I am here for their children, too, to serve in the same capacity.

Love and acceptance....it's as simple as that.

Cancun Trip with Arbonne, 2009

Cancun Trip, October, 2009 With Arbonne International Earned this awesome trip! Pyramids at Chichen Itza Gorgeous day with awesome friends! I have never felt humidity like this, though!!! It was crazy! To walk outside and be as wet as if I just got out of the shower! Why blow dry my hair? I did give up by the last day! The last day of the trip, I totally enjoyed the hammock and being utterly indulgent. Why does it take 4 days before you really start to relax??? That is just NOT right! :-) I am so grateful to work with such an awesome company as Arbonne! I love the concept of having healthy products, an environmentally friendly company and the most amazing women you can imagine. One thing that has hit me really hard this past 2 months of personal growth and coaching etc is that the greatest blessings my Arbonne business has brought me are 1. the friendships with incredible women and 2. Learning my own value and self worth. Why have I always doubted me? I am learning that I have a lot of...

The kids and I have been home for a week now. I have been working on the house, enjoying the beginning of summer, lots of rain, gentle breezes, the wind chimes, lots of peace and quiet, for the most part ;-) I am actively working my Arbonne business and just enjoying life in general. I have been cooking quite a bit this week and just enjoying all the domestic pleasures of being able to work from home. I love sitting on the patio in the sun while having lunch and I am even enjoying all the weeding because I like to see the finished product :-) I am eternally grateful for my fabulous friends who have spent much time hanging out this week.

Hello again! I just wanted to say thank you to all my fabulous friends, business partners and clients who so actively helped me earn my trip to Cancun this year! You are all incredible and awesome! I have been in Arbonne almost 3 years and one thing I will pass on to any of you with goals and dreams, WRITE THEM DOWN! Be intentional! This is the first year I paid the $30 registration fee last December and every month set about doing what I needed to do to stay on track to earn this trip! You can achieve what you set your mind to! Of course, you must follow through with lots of activity and personal growth reading and time. Our minds are incredibly powerful, though, never ever doubt that! Our summer is going well. Goodness, the kids will be back to school at the end of the month. Oh, and Victor and I have our 10th anniversary coming up this month! Wow! 10 years flew by! I hope you are all well. Blessings and love to you :-)
