What Makes You Feel Like You?

I am a loyal reader of Glamour Magazine and recently got around to reading their January Self Expression issue where they posed a question that I decided to ask myself…“What makes you feel like YOU?” I’m sure my answer will not shock you…

My answer would be a combo of : Having my FAMILY around + Having my MAKEUP on

After giving this question some thought, I knew it wasn’t as simple of an answer as putting on my favorite pair of jeans. Because those jeans wouldn’t feel very good if I couldn’t run around with my kids in them AND it wouldn’t matter how good they fit if I had a bare colorless face!

All of these pics are from Valentine’s Day yesterday, which ended up being a really great day filled with love from all of my family plus it was a really good makeup day:) Even the lady at the McDonald’s drive thru complimented me on my lip color!! There’s nothing like a random compliment to brighten a girls day.

So when it comes to my husband and my kids, it’s them that make me feel like the me I want to be! I found this inspiring love note off of ToriSpelling.com (which on a side note, is really great, I LOVE her even more now than I did during the 90210 days!) that sums up how my family makes me feel when I’m around them…
