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.

April 24th, 2009 I just had to take a photo of the weeping cherry bush since it blooms for such a short period of time. I am so happy that we moved here to Idaho. It has been such a great move for our children. The people are friendly and warm, the crime is low, the schools score very well. So many wonderful things about living in Idaho :-) The weekend is here and I am excited! I Have one Arbonne party on Saturday and will be gathering some orders in the morning. I am really excited because Victor was able to get us Taylor Swift concert tickets at the very last moment when the radio station opened up a few seats. He got on line and we couldn't get even get 4 tickets, but scraped by and got us 2 tickets :-) Woohooo ;-) The kids are all doing well. Morgan had her 11th birthday yesterday and is having a little party tomorrow, there will even be a couple of BOYS!!! ;-) too cute, she is the first girl to even ask to invite a boy to her party. The other kids will go to my mom's house

Grandpa Charles' visit

This week we are having a busy and very "summery" week, filled with activities with the family. My dad's dad, my grandpa Charles is visiting from Durango, Colorado. Also, my best friend's daughter, Shannon, is visiting from Missouri. This is the week that we are going to the lake lots, going to the water park and we will get away to McCall this weekend, a very dear friend is letting us use their house their. We are excited about the getaway :-) It truly feels like summer now! Of course, there is no internet in McCall and very little cell phone service and so I am telling the kids to take books and games etc. It will be nice to focus on the family this weekend.
