From The Vault

Today’s post is a throwback to the original alohilana blog from way back in 2008, affectionately known as vault posts. It’s been edited for clarity and relevancy, but the message is timeless and worth revisiting today.

My Girl Is 4!

Hey y’all, HEYYYY! It’s Monday and that means, well, it’s time to crank out another week of excellence, obvs. Today I’m struggling a little with my big mama emotions, though, y’all. My sweet little girl is 4 this month, and I’m absolutely reeling in devastation over how quickly it all happened. I know, I KNOW,

Podcast Junkie In The Making

Hey, y’all! Can you believe it’s Monday already? We had an insanely busy weekend, so I’m actually not mad to get back to my weekly routine. It’s probably not a good thing that the workweek is calmer than our downtime, but hey, that’s how we roll. So I’ve got a question, internets. Do y’all LOVE

This one’s from the vault, y’all! Edited for relevancy and clarity, but every bit as true as when it was published on the old blog back in 2008. It’s speaking to my heart today – and hopefully it speaks to yours, too. “If you greet only the people you like, are you doing any more
