Some Guy's do...

My son, Nick, is a very well groomed and well dressed young man. He has always took pride in his appearance, as well as in his education.

As a teen, Nick always looks at his best, dresses very handsome, and gives his all in his performance at school and in himself. He has a very sharp look that stands out.

Lately, especially within the last two years, he has given alot to being into sports and fitness. He is in track, where he loves to run his best and makes high goals and achievements for himself. He is also in basketball and in football. He loves to see how much better he can get at each practice and at each game and works hard to get his strength, energy, and his endurance up.

One thing he does besides daily exercise, daily runs, and routine practice, is weight lifting. He has really worked hard on strength training. At school ,there is a great workout room for the students to use. At home, he has bought different weights and work out equipment to workout with and use.
I am very proud of Nick for his great decision making of wanting to achieve such a great fitness in himself.

SOME REASONS FOR STRENGTH TRAINING ARE:

increased muscle strength and endurance
protection of muscles and and joints
strengthening of bones
improves blood pressure and cholesterol level
boosted metabolism
improves self esteem
~ Keep up the pride.

Radiant You! ( your teen)

Your Radiant teen is wanting to start wearing make-up. She wants to shine and sparkle. This can be fun and exciting, and of course very girly, indeed.

Your teen is growing into her beauty and discovering herself as a young lady.

She wants to look and feel like a cover girl of a magazine. This is all a normal part of growing , just as driving, dating, and graduating from high school.

Being a mother of a teen, when my daughter, Stephanie ,began asking to wear make-up in the third grade, I let her ease into it. She began with some lip gloss. In forth grade, she added blush, and a light lip color. In fifth grade, she added some light eye color that would compliment her beautiful green eyes. In seventh grade, I went ahead and let her be more daring with mineral foundation, a light eye liner, and mascara. She wore it pretty and wore it nice. She was responsible with cleansing her face and taking care of her skin. But, more than that she kept the phrase, less is more...

The main thing a mother can teach to this exploring teen , is that it is important to remember to let her kind heart and awesome personality shine through. For a warm smile will bring out a true radiance that one cannot put on or buy.

Ten ways to Feel Sassy

1) One thing to always do for yourself is enjoy a bath time, at least once a day set aside a time
for you to take your own peaceful bath. To enjoy your bath even more, try a special bath salt ,or a bubble bath, and another good tip is to lite a candle with a nice soothing scent. A bath is my must, I take one after dinner while everyone else is settling into the evening. ~Helps you mind, body, and
soul.


2) Put on some nice lotion and body spray, I love Victoria Secrets ANYTHING ..all of their
fragrances are amazing. You, will feel sassy, indeed.
~ i do love one of their newest Pure Seduction, wow! Seduction is right. : )

3) Go ahead slip into some sweet sexy panties, I love lace and silk and I usually wear the
color of panties that match my PJ's or clothes. I just do , it is fun and I like to match.


4) When washing clothes always wash with your favorite softeners, for me that is Downy.
Soft clothes feel so good, and they really smell great . If I need to save I buy a more reasonable
laundry detergent.

5) Paint your toes~ if you do not have time for a pedicure or the money, then paint your
own. Pretty toes feel pretty and at the same time you just pampered yourself . I love all the different colors. I am on a budget, so I get a pedicure every four months and other than that I paint my own. I do have to admit though that I am an O.P.I. snob, but I buy them when on sale.

6) Use a good face soap, so that your skin can feel at it's best. I have tried different ones, my
favorite one is great, cheap, and a keeper, I use Clean and Clear's blackhead clearing scrub.

7) Along with cleaning your face, a good moisturizer is important for great skin. I love any
of the moisturizers from Avon. I am a big Avon fan, I find it to be reasonable and good .

8) I do wear a little make- up, but more than makeup's beauty , a great smile on your face and
great soul is recommended ... your insides DO shine through!!

9 ) Drink plenty of water! I do love to drink a coke and also coffee, but in between I drink plenty of water. It is good for you and gives your skin a great and healthy glow!


10) There are a number of things that I could put here, but I am adding this one a great sheet set of
300 count or, mine are 500. Your body will thank you for the great sleep,and so will your
looks, and your husband. ( he will sleep great too...)

When Does the Sass Begin ?

For me the sass I am sure was always there as a child, teen, and as an

adult. As a mother of five, I am very thankful that it is still here with

me. It is who I am and without it I would not be me. I am a very

sassy and classy woman with very Girly ways, I love dressing up and

fixing up. Wearing cute clothing and pampering myself in smell goods

and bath and body products. And just feeling a sense of being a female.

Being a mother of three girls, I must say that they have definitely got this sauciness down from the

get go. I do believe they were born with it and growing into it. It is in everything from their little

personalities to their mannerisms. It is even in their laugh and giggles.

It is okay to be sassy as long as you remain classy. You can act sassy without being snobby, and you

can dress sassy as long as it remains classy. Remember to always cover the three B's ; your boobs,

your butt, and your belly......funny , but so true! ~ Keep the Class
