Ode to My Fashion

Hello Lovelies!!! How is it going? I am doing great. October is really started to test me with its heat. It can become quite unbearable. I am so looking forward to the days where I can rock a sweater or my denim jacket. Anyway, today I wanted to talk about self-confidence. I recently attended a workshop on self confidence hosted by a French Influencer I happen to follow on Instagram. The workshop was 4 hours long and I could only enjoy three because I arrived really late (I was babysitting my niece). But I still managed to get all the information I needed to help me build my self confidence.

When I was a housewife, I always felt like what I was doing was never enough. I wanted to be the perfect mother, the perfect wife. I felt like I was constantly failing. This lack of confidence was also felt outsid

Hello Hello! My Kids are back to school. I cannot believe I am the mother of a 5th grader and a 8th grader. How did we get there? Where did the time go? I used to have babies suckling on my breasts, only wanting to sleep with me, following me to the bathroom just a week ago or at least it feels like that. They are getting older and I am getting older. I do not fear aging. In fact, I am very excited to turn 40 next year (Inshallah, God willing) and enter a new phase in my life. What I am afraid of is missing out on my boys life. I used to be so involved with their schooling but now it is no longer the case. When I think that I used to be so present I was even friends with their former teachers (we still follow each other on Instagram by the way) it breaks my heart. I hate that feeling but I will find ways to remedy to it.
