I am Donae! A wife and mom of three kids, ALL boys! I would love to share with you my experience with living purposefully. Let my life Inspire, Encourage and Motivate you on your journey of living a purposeful life.

I’m in a new space and phase of life in my 40s. I I’m in a new space and phase of life in my 40s. I am so blessed to have another little one join in on our adventures. Can I just say he fits our family vibes perfectly? It’s as if he was born for this.I am incredibly grateful for new life and new experiences once again after 8 years. But this experience didn’t come without a wait. With every passing moment, it can be easy to get discouraged if things don’t happen quickly or in our favor.However, I have learned one major thing on this journey compared to the one I first started out on: life has a way of shifting your focus toward practicing gratitude, rather than wanting someone else’s life.So, I wanted to write about a simple yet powerful topic: LIVING A LIFE OF GRATITUDE, no matter what season of life you find yourself in.Click on the blog link in my bio! 👆🏾#gratitude #livingalifeofgratitude  #agratefullife #thankful #familylife
It’s been a moment since my last blog post. Time h It’s been a moment since my last blog post. Time has definitely brought a new season of motherhood for me after 8 years. So with this new blessing in our life we decided to throw a pool-themed first birthday party, because this newbie right here is fond of everything water. So the theme was so fitting for him.I wrote a NEW BLOG POST, “POOL PARTY-THEMED FIRST BIRTHDAY”, sharing with you tips on how to plan a special first birthday that’s fun and budget friendly.Click on the blog link in the bio. 👆🏾

Have you ever heard of the saying "boundaries up"? Have you ever heard of the saying "boundaries up"? I have heard it so many times but in all honesty, it's true. We have to be aware of our own well-being at all times to be able to be more effective in interacting with others. You can't give from an empty or drained cup. You have to keep pouring into your own well-being then when you're full, you can easily pour into others. That's why when you're drained especially as a mom learn to say no more often than yes. It is needed for your sanity. ⁠

As moms we don’t really get much time to ourselves As moms we don’t really get much time to ourselves when it comes to relaxing and not having mom duties on our hands. But thanks to @bestway_us for gifting us this wonderful Saluspa where we were able to relax the day away uninterrupted! 😇 @tryazon #Bestway #bestwayusa #saluspa #inflatablehottub #inflatablespa #tryazon
Self-care is essential for moms. We do need to con Self-care is essential for moms. We do need to constantly check in on our mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Do not neglect this basic principle. Otherwise, you will constantly be battling in a state of burnout and frustration. When you reach that state, you are of no help to the family you're called to nurture. So don't ever feel guilty about wanting to pour into your cup first before pouring into the lives of others. A healthy version of yourself is needed. ⁠

There is absolutely nothing wrong with creating he There is absolutely nothing wrong with creating healthy boundaries in your life. I used to think that you have to put up with anything for the most part because it's the right thing or "Christian" thing to do. But I'm learning each day that it's rather not the case. Your ability to function at best is always going to triumph. If that means that you must guard your heart when positioned in toxic environments carefully, then that's what it will have to take to ensure your thriving at the end of it all. So be proactive about this and guard your heart at all costs. It's worth it!⁠

We had a great time at Christmas games night with We had a great time at Christmas games night with family and friends! Thanks to @tryazon and @monopolygameofficial for gifting us Monopoly Knockout to try! This game is really a lot of fun. You get to play in rounds, taking turns sliding tokens and trying to land them on properties. At the end of each round, you’ll collect or pay cash based on where your tokens end up. It’s not only for grownups but also 8 years and older can play. It’s now a great addition to our games night collection for years to come! 🥰 #tryazon #monopolyknockout #monopoly #hasbrogaming #ad
Sometimes, I will often hit a wall in my "busyness Sometimes, I will often hit a wall in my "busyness" syndrome and then realize that I am going too fast and doing too much in such a short time.  When that happens, I have to take a step back and analyze my life, and my schedule and start to really prioritize the more important things, while removing the not-so-important things that can actually drain me, instead of helping me to create the balance that I desire for my peace and sanity for the long haul. ⁠
⁠
Have you been to that point yourself? If you have, then you will also know that it's probably time to slow down and to strip your schedule of things that no longer need to be there. Being overwhelmed with life and balance does not have to be the case. Slowing down is much more productive for your life and well-being long term. ⁠
