The past few days I have been collecting subjects from different people and each day this month I will be posting about a different subject.

The subject for today is 5 amazing things about me…this is a challenging subject for me as I have never been one to applause myself or boast of my achievements.  What have I committed myself to this month haha.  So here it goes…

1. Cake decorating – this is something that I have become better at over the years.  I never took classes and just find pictures of what I am wanting to create and take it from there.  It is something I love and almost always lose track of time while doing it.
2. Following instructions/steps – I have the patience to put something from IKEA together and I actually enjoy it.  I have a process down where I open the package and first check to make sure all the pieces are there.  Then I separate all the pieces into groups so everything is laid out and ready to put together.  There has been many times where pieces were missing.  This saves me the frustration of putting something together to find out at the end a piece is missing.
3. Cleaning/Organizing – I would say I am an expert at cleaning and organizing things.  I love the satisfaction at the end of it all to see the clean space and things in order.  I can even make a mess look organized haha
4. Helping – I like to help people if I can, whether I have the time for it or not…I have trouble saying no sometimes.  Whether someone directly asks me to help or if I see someone that is struggling I am good at stepping in.  Like cleaning I love the satisfaction at the end to see someone happy and smiling.
5. Being a mom – I have been handed many obstacles in life and I have pushed each and every one aside and focused on being a mom.  I know that each day I learn more and I know that some days I do things that I could have done better but at the end of it all I know that I am doing a great job.  Being a mom is not easy and it has many challenges starting from the minute you get pregnant.  I have been able to juggle so many things and raise two loving sweet girls.

So there you have it, 5 reasons I think I am amazing 🙂
