Hey, remember me?! It’s been a hot minute since we last chatted. I’ve been up to my eyeballs in all things summer…bbq, swimming, camp, VBS, popsicles, games, fireworks… you know, the summer time drill. We’ve made the most of our mornings so that in the afternoons we can escape the heat and lie low in the cool A/C. Ahhh…summer time!
I’ve packed up our completed school work and the shelves are now lined with thick, rich books ready for the next school year’s studies. We’ve organized and cleaned up what got shoved aside in the last days of school. The slate is clean and ready for us come back-to-school time. I tag these chores onto the end of each school year so we can be fully present in our summer’s rest. Next year’s studies are ready and waiting for us when the time comes to return. There’s also the slight chance one of my ambitious students will want to keep the mind sharp through summer with an occasional lesson. I’ve tried to set them up for success! <<wink wink>>
While the kids have been watching their afternoon flicks, I’ve been busy planning our fall events for all of the BellissiMamas. We’ve got so much GOODness in the shoot!! Dancing for Birth classes will be making their local debut. I’m super excited to bring these unique childbirth preparation classes to our birth community. I hope to offer a Zoom option too so mamas from anywhere in the world can join in. Mama Blessings will be making a debut as well!! Don’t know what a blessing is? <<hint hint>> It’s similar to a baby shower that feathers the nest for caring for Baby, but it’s all about strengthening and blessing Mama for birth and motherhood. Our popular Mama Circles will again return to our afternoons and Mamas Night Out will offer evenings to connect. I’m also reserving time for autumn births. If you’re wanting doula support – I’m your girl! Let’s chat soon so I can be sure to reserve time for YOU. I have very limited availability because it’s my heart’s desire to be fully present with and for you.
I’ve been taking a summer time vibe to our social media posting too. Stay tuned for more community and connection on all things social. The blog will come back this fall, along with more of the great collaboration with amazing, like-minded mama-preneurs. Know of someone we all should get to know better? Let me know. We love making new friends!!
We’re so blessed! Our family gets to take this summer gig on the road. I have the amazing opportunity to be a traveling doula, taking us to Idaho and as far as Florida for coast to coast fun. We’ll visit with family, welcome new souls into the world, help mamas prepare for their peaceful postpartum, and sneak in a bit of adventuring along the way.
In the meantime, check out our Summer of Sisterhood schedule of events. We’re traveling near and far to see the sights, hanging with friends, and learning or trying something new. I hope you’ll join us!!
