Fall is here! And as silly as it sounds, I’m very excited to finally be in a climate that will allow me to watch the leaves change.

Currently we’re in Kentucky, heading south to Tennessee to spend time with family and celebrate my great-granny’s 97th birthday (hopefully with a little surprise for her if I can manage my time well!).

NEW Excitement!

♥ THE ORGANIC SISTERHOOD! Wahooooooo! It’s launched! It’s growing! It’s bee-yoooo-tee-ful! Have you received your access code yet?

♥ ODDBALL JUGGLING! Have you seen Justin and Zeb’s new business! They are making juggling balls for families and sharing the fun and benefits of juggling with everyone!

♥ From Sustainable Baby Steps: Oh all kinds of new stuff over there, from Healthy Breakfast Foods to Natural Family Planning Methods and more new stuff in between!

♥ You Are Not Alone: Five Powerhouse Ladies Tell the Truth About Anxiety You can read about my story with fear and anxiety and how I kick it in the tushy over at The Illuminated Truth.

September Blog Highlights

♥ Being a Parent vs. Being a Friend My thoughts on the question as to whether we can or should be the very best friends we can be to our kids. It’s been the one rebuttal that actually got the naysayers thinking.

♥ End of Summer Reflections “Sometimes I forget just how different our lives are from others. We eat when we’re hungry, never raise our hands to get permission to pee, & we don’t have to work when someone else tells us to. We get to love what we do all the time, instead of just holidays & weekends & if we’re tired by the end of the day it’s a fulfilled tired, not an exhausted-depressed tired.”

♥ 4 Things Your Fear of Change Really Means: It’s always deeper than it looks. There are always roots to our fears that can be pulled out, examined and thrown in the compost.

♥ Actually Reading Together Changed My Opinion of It: It’s not about the benefit of reading or a love of reading or learning to read. It’s not about teaching my child or guiding him. It’s about sharing something together – whether it’s books or something else. It’s the bond.

♥ Instability and the Great Stretch: All about my own personal growth and the lessons that come from being on the road.

Inspiration!

♥ Back to (the wrong) school: Seth Godin is probably one of this generation’s most incredible leaders and thinkers. After this post, is it any wonder I love him so?

♥ Scientists Turn Brain Visual Memories into Video: Yes! I’ve been talking about turning my dreams into movies for re-watching for decades! THIS might mean we’re finally close!

♥ Milagro Girl: Have you met the new girl in town? Alicia and her beautiful message are both beautiful and inspiring.

♥ Faster than the speed of light? Scientists have found particles faster than the speed of light! FASTER! This is incredible and seriously freaking out the scientific community, who apparently still hate finding out they don’t yet know it all.

♥ Entrepreneurs: Please Don’t Puke On Me. Love, Ashley. Yup. This pretty much says it all.

♥ Online Marketing Toolbox For you entrepreneurs out there, Dave Navarro is sadly closing up shop. He’s offering all his workshops for the donation amount of your choice! Can’t make a donation? That’s okay too!

♥ Labor of love: Teen doula helps young moms through childbirth Oh my goodness. This brings tears to my eyes. If there is anything a teen mom needs, it’s most definitely the love and care of doula and friend.
