Mama Life is the Best Life - by: Mermaid Mama Nicole

I’m a co-sleeping and bed sharing mama and have been since the day we brought our son home from the hospital. My son Easton was born 6 weeks early and when we brought him home he was so so tiny and slept the best when he was sleeping on my chest and to be completely honest I feel the best when he's sleeping on me too. I can feel and hear him breathing so I know he's safe, and that puts my mind at ease.   When I would tell people we co-sleep and bed share I heard everything from "your making a mistake he'll never sleep in a crib" and "oh you shouldn't do that he needs to learn to sleep alone" or "your gonna spoil him, you'll be sorry later ". The list goes on and on. Being a new mama I thought oh no am I doing the wrong thing even tho I feel its the right thing?  I questioned myself as a mom and my husband said " honey your dong the right thing and your a great mom , this works for us and our son, and you know whats best for our bab

   I've always been determined to be my own boss and do what I love while making money.  It's not an easy thing to do or figure out , It took me many years to figure out how I could make a living doing what I love every single day but also make money to pay my bills and be comfortable.   I never went into mermaiding or being a hair stylist having her own little salon from home  thinking it was gonna make me rich ....I just want to make enought to support myself.  To be completly honest I wasn't sure if that was even possible.  I mean how were people gonna know about me if I didnt work for a big company ?  Would people actually call to book me ? What if they canceled ?  I have no big sign on the road advertising my business so how sucessful could i really be ?   These were all questions that went through my mind over and over and sometimes scare me.        Im still very new at this but guess what people started hearing about me through friends and social media, I joined th

     Positive Mind = Positive Life ,  I woke up today and that was my first thought of the day and I'm so happy it was, its true you have to always keep a positive mind even at the hardest times in life.  Lately over the last couple weeks I feel like I've come in contact with people just radiating negativity or going out of there way to make me feel bad and there were a few days Im sad to say it worked and I came home just feeling down, not myself.  It didn't last long witin a few hours I said to myself  " Nicole what they said doesn't matter and don't let them take the positive happy energy out of you because there the ones not happy with themself ."  Then that was that and I tried not to give it anymore of my thought or time because it really doesn't matter and I wasn't about to let them win, the way I felt that day when I came home is exactly how that person was hoping I'd feel for probobly days but I didnt let that happen.    Always keep a

    mermaidnicolelea.com    Mermaids are extremely secretive creatures. They hide from most humans afraid of being captured. I say most humans because there are some very special people in the world that mermaids choose to bond with and sometimes fall in love with.  If you are lucky enough to connect with this beautiful creature you can be sure that anything you tell a mermaid will remain a secret. Mermaids are kind, honest and trustworthy those are traits all humans should have. Have you ever told a friend something and asked them to please not tell anyone ?  but then a few days later you come to find out that they've told your whole circle of friends.  Do you remember how that made you feel? Probably pretty bad and you were most likely angry and felt you wanted to get them back.  That's not the right thing to do, when you find yourself in that situation or one like that always remember to channel your inner mermaid and stay that kind, honest and trustworthy person.  Don&
