As I sit here on the couch, still wearing my pyjamas. I start to think of what else O could be doing. I’ve been contemplating on how to start a blog and start blogging. I was told by many I’d be very good at this and public speaking because my story... the good and the bad will speak to people. The honest truth of what has happened, what is happening and what is yet to happen. So I’ll be starting soon and hopefully you’ll read it.
Beyond Mom’s was chosen as the name because as women we are above and beyond . A mom doesn’t necessarily mean you have children , you can take it as your a mother to many through teaching. Your a mother through adoption, kinship, foster and many more ways to describe a mother. Women were created to not only mother, but to nurture. Anything we do.... we were born to show our emotions and live through them. I know many women who struggle with infertility and feel less then a woman. If you fall into that category ....... I want you to know you are not alone and even tho you personally cannot create...... you have probably done more by showing your a nurturer in another way and will find your way to fit your version of a woman.
As women I truly believe if we got passed our own egos and worked together.... women would rule this world. We are actually pretty incredible human beings. We are able to endure the pain of 42 bones breaking at once and be completely fine within a few hours. We probably go through 10 emotions or more on a day and yet still fine sanity. Women crave balance. We crave a sense of worth and stability. We have proven way more then once we can do just about anything as long as we put our mind into it.
So back into Beyond Mom’s ! Which I pray we flatten the curve by November 9th for our first annual event.
I created this non profit with the intent to help raise money for families of kinship and foster children and to also raise awareness for the lack of foster homes within our community. I plan to expand this province wide and then ultimately Canada wide.
I’m using my platform as Mrs Galaxy Windsor to make myself herd. It starts with the children, the best generation. By doing our part in leaving our community better then how we came to be. I’m not saying have children of you don’t want any, I’m not saying adopt a child if you are not ready or cannot take the responsibility. I’m trying to say help in any way you can. Spread the word to as many people as you can in order to help the 250 kids currently in foster care and help the families of kinship financially so kids can stay with families if possible. Kids are taken at any given time of the day or night and with the drug epidemic , it’s happening more and more.
My ultimate goal! To give these kids hope! To break the link between childhood trauma that could lead to mental illness and much more as we see happening within our own city.
Why I help the homeless..... because they are people to. Because I once was heavily involved in drugs and by the grace of god and a mom who never gave up on me ..... I got clean! Drug users , the homeless (some don’t even do drugs) they were once born, with cute little feet and a cute lil baby bum.
The bible says to treat thy neighbour as thy self. Even a smile 😃 could help someone recognize 🙂
Beyond everything ! Be safe , be kind , be you
