Baby Love!

Gettin' back to the GOOD STUFF

We all know that life is just too short for the negatives...  What do we have time for in this life?  LOVE.  As a new mama, I have found a new love, an amazing, almost indescribable love for my son, Teo.  Different than the love for my partner, Simon and certainly different than the love for our dog, Tahi.  My love for Teo is true, strong, consistent, natural, deep and so full of my every ounce of my soul.  How did this happen?  (Actually, we all know how this happened, but I mean how did this little fella squirrel into my heart?)  My outlook on life has been changed this year, with the birth of Teo. 

So, to kick my blog back into the blogasphere (again), I decided to highlight the stuff I love in life! It should be easy to do, yes?  

Besides being a mama, wife and dog-owner, I love my job!  Jolkona does so much for others around the world.  See for yourself!  My favorite projects are about education and health.  Last year, our events team ran a holiday campaign and funded education (including tuition,  uniforms, shoes, lunch, school fees and books) for many children in Nepal.  These children have disabilities but aren't defined by their physical hurdles.  They are full of joy, motivation and love.  I met many of these children years ago when volunteering in Nepal and have stayed in touch with them (thanks to the power of Facebook).  I feel so lucky to still be connected to these kind souls.  

So do you love what you do?  If not, how can this happen?  Life is short people, love life!
