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

Becoming a mama has made me a kid again , my son is only a year old and In this last year he has taught me so much.  I used to be so silly and goofy ALL the time and as I got older I started actually growing up . As I started having more responsibilities and the stress of life my kid like self just started changing and I really didn’t realize I had lost it until my son was born . All of a sudden I started being silly again making up goofy dances, making up all sorts of little fun songs for him , crawling around at the playground chasing him pretending that I can’t catch him ( he loves that ) .  I made up this song called “I’m the dancing turtle” along with a dance and I end up having to perform this song and dance for him when were at the store or in a restaurant , I catch people looking at me ( I mean how could you not look ).  I also made up this diaper changing song that I sing to him almost every time I change his diaper and yes even in public restrooms. My son loves to dance (

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

It's true you can be anything you want in this world but always choose to be kind.  Kindness means being Friendly , generous & considerate and this quality will truly get you far in life. Some people in this crazy world may say kindness is someone who's weak but that is simply un true. Being kind requires courage and strength.      A kind person has there eyes open and to be active when you see someone in need, for example when you see someone being hurt or bullied by someone else, to be kind means to step in or get help if the situation is a dangerous one.  It is not ok to not do anything.  You have the power to help change someones life with kindness.  Maybe you know someone thats having a bad day a simple smile or nice message could turn there whole day around and trust me its the best feeling to know you've changed their whole day and instead of it being a bad one it might just be one of the best days. Help to motivate and encourage others in all they do,  think ab

 What are some things that have had a major impact on your life?  We have all had something happen to us in a good and positive way that has had a uplifting effect on our life, & sure we have also had things happen or even people you've allowed into your life that has also had a negative impact on you as well.     Let's think of all the positive things or people in your life that have impacted us in a wonderful way!  I've been very lucky in my life to have met some mermazing people that I know will be a part of my life always, some of these people came into my life very unexpectedly but I believe that everything happens for a reason and a higher power placed them in my life or me in there's for a reason, People you have in your life should be positive influences for you, meaning they should make you smile, bring joy in your life and not stress. Being around them should bring positivity into your life.  I know we can choose to surround ourselves with good positive

      Following your dreams whatever they are can be a challenging thing to do.  Whether it be traveling the world, playing in a band, starting a business you've always dreamed of doing or getting that dream job you've always wanted.  All of us have dreams and it's so easy to just keep going through the motions of daily life, and then one day you'll wake up and wonder why you never followed those dreams of yours.  The good news is its never too late to go after what you want. If you don't at least try to make what you've always dreamed of come true you will never truly be 100% happy, trust me on this I know. It can be very scary to make a life change especially when you get comfortable , I know this because i'm doing it.  Im finally for the first time in my life making my dreams come true and I dream of that day when I can do this and only this and not have another job to go to, but at the same time its very scary cuz I think to myself  " well what if

    Mermaids have  the special gift of connection, Meaning they can connect with anyone they think about. Imagine thinking of a friend or relative who lives far away and wishing they were right there with you. When mermaids think of someone they can feel the connection with that person like their right in front of them and can also heal from a distance. They can feel if that person needs healing and can do just that. In our world we can do they same. we can connect with others on all levels even if there not close by. We as well have the power of deep connection and healing. Spiritual healing is so powerful, we all have a god we believe in and pray to, It's having that belief and faith that will help in the healing process.     I'm also a big believer in crystal healing and mediation. My meditation I call mermaid meditation... one reason is because I am a professional mermaid and before I enter the water I do a 15 - 20 min meditation to clear my mind and to connect me be

    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&
