Happy New Year 2015
December 31, 2014 by
Where did the year go? It’s amazing that 2014 is about to come to end, but I’m looking forward to all that 2015 brings. Out with the old and in with the new, right. I’ve met some great people in 2014 that have become an important part of my life, and I remained consistent for the most part with my blog posts. Consistency hasn’t been one of my strong points throughout my blogging endeavors, and has caused me to not reach many of my goals in the blogging world.
I hope to stay on track with Mother 2 Mother in 2015. I will officially retire as a public servant in 9/2015, so I will be able to dedicate more time to my blog, my family, gardening, crafts, travel, and all the things that I love. The thought makes me happy, I love writing and sharing my life with my readers. I’m looking forward to moving on to the next phase of my life and hope you will continue to follow.
I want to thank each of you for supporting me in 2014. Your comments and following is what keeps me working on Mother 2 Mother. I wish each of you good health, happiness, and love in the New Year. May each of you be blessed.

This post also received the most clicks.

Mari chose Shameless Decisions. from Sequins in the South. “I loved the bold honesty and share of learning experience. Anyone can be a mother or father but not everyone can be a great mom or dad.

It was a gentle reminder that you can’t and shouldn’t try to do it all.”
Jessica chose Teaching Kids to Take Responsibility from Life from My Laptop. “This post was so greatly needed, especially with what is going on in the world nowadays. I feel that it is our responsibility as parents to teach our children early on how to take on full responsibility of their actions. We make them better people when we do and hopefully gain a lot of respect from others :).”
Tiffany chose 7 Tips to Being a Better Stay-At-Home-Mama from Seven Graces. “I think Kristy gives a great list of tips and ways to make sure that you are at your best even when you are at home. It can be easy to fall into a rut when you’re a SAHM but with these scriptures and tips it’s just as easy to get out of it!”
Chelsea chose Raspberry Mojito Recipe from Hairsprays & High Heels. “Mojitos are my drink of choice, and it’s so refreshing to see something that’s not cranberry or peppermint! It’s the holiday season and these raspberry concoctions are a nice twist on the usual ‘red and green’ festive drink. Love it!”
![red velvet popcorn_thumb[5]](http://epicmommyadventures.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/red-velvet-popcorn_thumb5-421x500.jpg)

Tina chose DIY Toile Christmas Ornament from Anastasia Vintage. “What a great craft!!So elegant and simple, I really love this fabric it’s beautiful.”
Stacey chose 25 Handmade Ornaments to Enjoy Creating from Earning & Saving with Sarah Fuller. “So many wonderful and easy ideas, that would be great to do with the kids.

Yolanda chose Dream Big-Vision Board 2015 from The Mompreneur 2013. “I selected this post because I am gearing myself up for 2015. What will the upcoming year hold for me? Will I accomplish big things? Not if I don’t have a vision, or plan, for the future. This post gave me a great idea of a little self-reflecting project for the next week.”
Rhonda chose Wrapping Up your Christmas Baking Gifts from Fynes Designs. “I love making baked and home made gifts for Christmas. I just made a huge batch of Christmas Crunch and love the idea of using jars with ribbons in my gift baskets versus the cellophane bags. Nice touch.”

Fulcrum Gallery Art Review
December 19, 2014 by
Are you a lover of all things Paris or dreaming of taking a trip one day? Me too. I just did an office make-over using a Paris theme. I love, love, love it. I had one wall left in my office that needed a picture and Fulcrum Gallery asked me to do a review on their artwork. I jumped at the chance and selected the Travel Paris Fulcrum Gallery artwork. Ladies, it is beautiful. The gold frame really makes the brown tones in the picture pop. The artwork is quality, shipment is fast and the prices are great. I couldn’t believe how low Fulcrum’s framed pictures are for a gallery.
They have a large selection of artwork to select from in various sizes and prices to fit every budget. If I had not already had a theme in mind, I would have been spinning trying to make a selection.
I love that Fulcrum had several colors of frames to choose from or you can get the print on canvass. I debated between the gold frame or canvass. As you can see, I didn’t make a mistake with my choice. Regardless of the type of print you are looking for, this gallery will have it. The site is easy to navigate and they have their artwork listed by room or subject to help make finding your favorite print easy.
They are running a special, 50% off all prints that ends Monday, December 22. Use the promo code, 50Prints. This would be a great time to purchase a new print for your home or office, an upcoming birthday, Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day. How often does a gallery run a special for 50% off their prints, really. Check the site often or sign up for their mailing list so you don’t miss their promotions.
Every time I look at this print in my office, I smile. I encourage you to head over and check out Fulcrum too.
12 Days of Christmas – The Family
December 16, 2014 by
Welcome to Day 6 of my 12 Days of Christmas posts. Today I’m looking back at some of favorite Christmas memories with family. I’m also tossing in this picture of my Christmas tree. It’s the last live tree that I purchased. I switched to an artificial tree this year, and I’m having mixed emotions. I love the look and smell of a live tree. The Douglas Fir was my favorite, unfortunately they’re work with set-up, constant watering and disposal. I’ve had a live tree for 30 years, it’s like losing a friend. It’s also the last year for the ornaments on this tree. I purchased new ornaments this year with a new color theme. I love the ornaments, but will I go back to a live tree? Stay tuned for next year’s post of the 2015 Christmas tree.
This picture still brings me to tears. This is me holding Zarriah her first Christmas. This was an emotional day for me. She was a preemie, weighing in at 2lbs. and 10 ounces when she entered this world. She fought for her life for 3 months, so it was a joy and a blessing having her home for Christmas. She is truly our miracle baby, and she’s still a fighter.
.
A white Christmas. Although we ended up with a foot of snow that year, there is nothing more beautiful than a white Christmas, that’s if you’re staying home.
To me, Christmas is about the time we spend with family and friends. It’s a magical time for children. This is a picture of my nephew and a family friend’s daughter. They were in awe of the moving Santa.
I love this picture, of Xavier’s grandfather reading to him Christmas morning. It was an exciting morning, he fall asleep shortly thereafter. Such a precious moment.
This is a family friend’s daughter dancing to Beyonce’s All the Single Ladies at one of my parties. She was working it. Every time I heard that song, I think about her. Too funny.
This Christmas, I got snowed in at my daughter’s in Virginia Beach. We’re used to snow back home, but an inch will shut a beach town down. Six inches will completely immobilize it and it did. My daughter and SIL had no shovel or scrapers, and the city had no salt or sand. We used gift boxes to clean off the cars. Trying to make it home was a nightmare, it’s a 5 hour drive home. I never saw a snowplow come through the neighborhood the entire time I was there. I had to get back to work, so I slide my way out. It was amazing, even the emergency responders were unprepared. I watched cops run off the road in route to assist others. If I ever get snowed in again, I’ll just stay put until it all melts. My stress level went to new heights that Christmas.
This Christmas we also celebrated my son-in-law’s birthday, which is January 3. My grandson took over the cake and the party. I guess this is why it’s no fun having your birthday during the holiday season.
Last, but not least my Zarriah learning to walk with the help of her new baby and stroller. I was so excited. She is truly a miracle and this was a Christmas blessing.
I have hundreds of other memories that I can share, but these are some of the most memorable. Stay tuned to Day 7 of my posts. What are some of your favorite holiday memories?
