Hello Spring Hens!

Could it be? Could it be? I’m looking out of the window right now and I see daffodils poking out of the ground, buds on the hickory trees ready to burst forth, and forsythias preparing to set themselves ablaze with masses of tiny, yellow blossoms. Oh, spring, sweet spring, your beauty intoxicates me! It’s times like these that the itch to get outside is practically irresistible. If you are feeling a touch of spring fever, then go ahead and indulge your illness. Take learning outside with some great activities that you and the kids can do together. And spread spring throughout your home with some fresh decorating ideas.

Now is a perfect time to get your body out of hibernation. Pump up that workout routine by incorporating some weight training and put a dash of flash in your wardrobe by stepping out in cowboy boots. And if you have been avoiding chocolate because you’ve already seen swimsuits displayed in the department stores, then the beauty article has great (and tasty) news for you! If you need a non-dairy solution for some milk to wash down that chocolate, then try out some delicious almond milk.

With all of the springtime rush, make sure you remember to take care of yourself. If mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy! Fill up your tank by sneaking out for a little bit of mommy time. You’ll be glad you did. And don’t forget to do at least eight great things! Keep living that Total Mom life!
