Beautiful Beginnings

 
In our lives, we will always encounter new beginnings. Our entire childhoods are marked with wonderful life experiences, with new discoveries at every turn and corner. We are constantly entering unchartered territory; from primary school to high school, then the wide open field of University, beginning a career...marriage...motherhood.
 
There is something purely magical about beginnings...about facing life fearlessly and forging forward excitedly, about embracing change willingly and effortlessly. There is something purely euphoric in this journey of constant change and perhaps the most beautiful, rewarding and life altering; albeit the hardest; is the beginning of a journey as a parent.
 
I love beginnings...and I love being part and sharing the joy of someone else's beautiful journey. From weddings to having babies, I absolutely LOVE celebrating the magic that is a new beginning in life!
 
I was recently invited to a Baby Shower; to join in the celebration of a friend preparing for her first baby; and it was the prettiest shower I have ever attended! Lot's has changed since I have had kids, and perhaps the biggest change is in the way we celebrate. From décor and detailing, to the radiant mom to be...everything seems to be so much more fabulous!! But not enough for me to go down that road again ;-) HaHaHa
