Hello Jackie, I just wanted to say I absolutely love all your posts & can relate to them all. I love this one in particular because being Hispanic we often find our selves with the fam bam watching sabado gigante 🙂 I love that you tell everything like it is good and bad. you are an inspiring individual & will love to continue to see all your future endeavors. More importantly watching your pregnancy and seeing you juggle it all gave me that little push I needed to start trying for baby #2.Working full time as accountant,trying to start a business & being a madre…is tiring!! Having a husband and family that supports me entirely helps me be who I am today and where I plan to be, this post also reminded me of that ;). So when you have your down days as we all do…remember you have many that you inspire. These to quotes come to mind when I read your story. “There is no greater challenge than to have someone relying upon you; no greater satisfaction than to vindicate his expectation.”-Kingman Brewster “Because I am a woman, I must make unusual efforts to succeed. If I fail, no one will say, “She doesn’t have what it takes”; They will say, “Women don’t have what it takes”;” -clare boothe <3 RosArt CreationsNOVEMBER 16, 2011 10:27 AM

Rosalie! How am I just seeing your post- forgive me.. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful message with me. I can’t really explain how it makes me when someone tells me they are inspired by my blog, business, crazy family, life etc.. I just feel like it’s our total responsibility as people, women, moms etc.. to make each other better. And if you read my stuff you may know, I WAS MOST CERTAINLY NOT ALWAYS THIS WAY! Learned the hard way and realized I needed a life over-haul! This world is a HUGE place but I think we are all connected to everyone & everything. I have a passion for writing, my family, my business and doing something with my life before I wake up and realize it’s flashed right before my eyes.. I also think every day is a gift and you’ve got to live it with Gusto & Complete Honesty! Thanks for the quotes, for making me feel understood in a world where I often think I’m kinda weird and for now leaving me in hormonal tears.. 😉 Adelante Mujer! Obstacles only exist if we let them!
