I bought a new camera this Summer. I love to take pictures, but unfortunately I’ve never taken a class in my life. I’m winging this one too. During the Summer I hope to just have fun with it and see what I come up with. Smile! … [Read more...]

August 5, 2012 By Gloria B. Collins Leave a Comment

My Husband brings me eggs. He knows I adore flowers and would bring me flowers all the time. Now that I started my flower business he stopped. Unfortunately for me no more “I was thinking of you today gifts” Being clever and eager to please, he now brings me organic eggs. Eggs! Yes, gorgeous organic eggs bought from a local farmer’s market near … [Read more...]

Holidays here we come. I can’t wait to get away from the routine of life. This holiday we plan on visiting two continents so we can be with our families.

Constantly learning with my family.

July 23, 2012 By Gloria B. Collins Leave a Comment

Spending time with my family during the slow summer months completes me. I find during the school year I run around keeping things as together as possible for my family and my work. I just don’t have the proper time to teach important lessons. The Summer of 2012 brings new beginnings and with new beginnings there is always the process of … [Read more...]

Searching for my inner slow

July 12, 2012 By Gloria B. Collins Leave a Comment

During the Summer months I look for the comforts that only being with one’s self can bring. An alone time to think, daydream and simply rest the mind is critical when turning off to just slow down.

What would one do without friends?

July 11, 2012 By Gloria B. Collins Leave a Comment

I know I would be lost. My friends are the glue that keeps me together for the most part. Each one makes me feel like I’m their special best friend. Some I might not speak to very often. Each knows our bond is as it should be - pure and simply delightful. Each are a gift so perfect in every way. ~enjoy~ … [Read more...]

Managing working from home, eating and teaching.

July 11, 2012 By Gloria B. Collins Leave a Comment

Work for me is a real challenge during the slow days of Summer. Particularly because I work from home AND my boys are at home as well. So I’ve managed to accept that I can do only what I can do. Accepting, AND not forcing, is a big part of slowing down to accomplish a bit more balance in one’s life. Luckily, the business is still in its adolescent … [Read more...]
