Happy Mother's Day!! Cheers to you..... the "Mommy-Accessorizers"

It was just recently that my sister and I were talking about how well she tends to always have her son with her with every trip she makes or every move she makes. Personally, having two kids doesn't help to follow suit but I still do my best to exemplify her because I think it's great to have your kids as your 'side kick'. What better way to know and train your kids but by having them as your best 'personal accessory' ? We laughed at the thought that she went everywhere with her 'boyfriend', 'side kick'..............her ACCESSORY. 


It's so captivating how mothers instinctively sacrifice their schedules, time, and work to include their kids in their day-to-day activities (with out the help of anyone else, even baby sitters). From mothers who make it a point to travel with their tots on long destinations, to mothers who decide to include their tots in their shopping sprees and mothers who I know, often times take their kids with them to work. Mind you it's not an easy task, especially dealing with the 'terrible' twos and threes!! So I give them much respect. It's one rewarding lesson we all have to learn to do as mothers. We need to learn how to wear them well


But you see, just as we yummy mummies take time and are detail-oriented in choosing  the right bag, belt, so is it a skill accessorizing with our kids. Its important to make sure the kids have the right bling or the right shine to them; the right shade of color to match what we're wearing; the right detail. So while accessorizing with our kids, make sure that they look the part too - comfortable and cute. Our kids truly are the best accessories because they coordinate with every fabric, color and texture of our clothing, our whole being. Our accessories 9 times out of 10 define us. They also tend to reflect your personality and preferences. So let them strut their stuff because they make you look smashing in the process. 


So on this mother's day, it is so befitting to congratulate all my mothers who perfect the art of rocking the right accessories - their children. I sincerely wish you all the best today on Mother's Day and even more importantly, each and every day. You're truly awesome! Nada MC, Abo A., Felicia , Monica A., Ewuraama S, a special congrats to you and to my greatest fan, my sister Akua - Ethan is one lucky guy!
