Daddy's Girl

Dear Diary,
I love when Jeff takes the girls out for their own special date night.  Tonight Dad and Jessie had a special dinner at Asaka, then stopped by 31 for an ice cream treat.

My husband and I feel privileged to live in the United States of America.  We both have the same rights.

Hope

Dear Diary,
I think I've always been a hopeful person.  Having hope gives me a feeling of purpose and meaning in life.  I have hope that my children will do well in school and essentially in life.  I have hope that my marriage will last forever.  I have hope that my faith in God will get me through life's challenges.  Having hope is a beautiful empowering feeling that gives me confidence and optimism.  Hope that everything is going to be ok, helps me take the necessary to steps to make it happen.  I can't imagine life without hope... it's a gift as big as life itself!

Make America Great Again!

Dear Diary,
Donald Trump takes the oath of office to become the 45th President of the United States tomorrow.  I'm excited to watch the Inauguration and hopeful President Trump will unify our country, strengthen our economy and secure our borders.  He seems passionate about doing what's best for our country and I love his unconventional ways of going about it.  Good night, Good luck and God bless!

Yes He Did!

Dear Diary,
Jeff gifted me with a gorgeous Chanel Wallet On Chain.  He surprised me in front of the kids on our way to dinner at Avenue Italy on Christmas Eve.  Thank you husband for the best present ever!  You're loving, thoughtful and very generous!!!

Dear Diary,
Not only is my best friend sweet, funny, smart and beautiful!  She's also the owner of Blush Boutique with boutiques in Calabasas, Thousand Oaks and Laguna Hills.  She spoils me and dresses me only in the best.  Thank you Sherry for this beautiful off shoulder Veronica M velvet emerald dream!
