Recently, as I have been taking on more things, my life was starting to get a little, lets say, chaotic! Over the summer I have started a blog, a business, plus some other side ventures. I kept going to the store and searching around online for something to keep all my appointments and notes, plus, all of Stella’s social activities. This was turning out to be a harder task then I had originally thought. I wanted something sheik and cute but also functional.
So, I continued to send myself emails with ideas and appointments, so I could write it on the calendar, by my fridge, hoping I did not get side tracked when walking from the office to the fridge. I know it is only a couple of rooms over but let me tell you, a lot can happen in those steps, and if so, the appointment was lost!
Yesterday, I had a coffee date on the downtown mall in Charlottesville. After I thought I would let my daughter run and do some window shopping. As I was walking and Stella was running ahead of me, she all of a sudden veered left and ran into Rock Paper Scissors. Slightly panicky I ran after her before she could do too much damage. As I walked in a remembered what a fabulous store it is! I had not been in one since we lived in Miami.
So as I tried to control my 21 month old from destroying the lovely and well-kept store, I started to browse around. I needed some birthday cards anyway. As I searched the shelves filled with elegant but simple stationary and the most sweetest hand-made cards and journals, I tried to keep m daughter under control and occupied with my cell phone. It really is worth the trip just to check everything out. Oh my, I am getting side tracked! So I happened to look to my right, as my daughter so nonchalantly knocked over some stamps, and saw zebra print staring at me in the face. It was love at first sight! I found exactly what I was looking for, for so long, but could not find…….the MomAgenda! This desktop agenda has it all. A monthly calendar and a weekly planner that has room for up to four kids activities, plus space for yourself. It has space for vacation planning/ideas, birthdays, party planning, and so much more. In the beginning it has two pages full of wonderful family websites and some great shopping ones for moms!! It really is wonderful. It fits in my bag which is great, so I can never be without it. If you are one that likes smaller bags, there is a size for that as well. It really is fantastic for any mom or mom to be!!
Usually I am so nervous when Stella is running free in stores like this, but this time she was a step ahead of me!
