LIFESTYLE: 4 TIPS FOR RAISING A TAURUS DAUGHTER

#HolaQueens


My daughter has a very strong personality, but she’s also very, very sensitive which I admit a lot of the times, it upsets me. It has been a little difficult for me to understand and learn her sensitive side.

My casa is filled with nothing but Taureans, my mom, brother, dughter and me. Let me tell you it has been a challenge understanding our personalities.


Most of us have more of the stronger side of the Taurean personality, but on the other side my daughter seems to be a bit more on the sensitive side of the sign. 

I wasn't so blessed with the sensitive side, which is hard for me to understand sometimes because I have a very strong personality lol




She can switch pretty quick to the stubborn side, yet I feel like her sensitive side outweighs more the other one.

This sign is so sensitive due to the fact that Taureans rule by their five senses, sight, taste, touch, smell and sound!



Since they use all five senses, every experience for a Taurus is more intense. 

I often question my daughter sensitivity, which is often mistaken by being chiquiada (spoiled) we often miss that Taureans sees, hears, tastes, smells and ‘feels’ all at the same time.

Understanding some characteristics from the sign is where I have learned to manage my daughters personality a bit better.

I want to share with you all four tips for raising a Taurus daughter, being a Taurus my self I know this one right here is challenging.




1.    Be easy when it comes to changes.

Taureans have this thing that once they have found the right routine for them; it’s very, very hard for them to make changes. Any changes require a lot of preparation so they can easy into it. Please be cautious if you're trying to switch routines, it is not going to go very well if you make sudden changes.

2.    Punishments are not your best option.

Now this is a hard one, I can tell you that growing up I was very, very stubborn (main known characteristic for a Taurus) I remember my mom will punish me a lot, and not only that I will feel the powerful love of the belt, yet I would still not get the point and it will only make my attitude worse, and my stubbornness to follow directions will flourish more!

The broken record technique is a good tool for disciplining taureans. If they don’t listen, continue to repeat the same boundary or rule over and over again (without losing your cool) good luck with that too!

 It’s a very tough situation for us moms, but even now my mom shares how she learned this method with me, because she knew that the only to get through me are sometimes letting me cool down, than go over what she needed me to do, and still till this day. 
I have found my self in this particular situation a lot with my daughter as well 😢



3.    Don’t be afraid to show them extra love

Other of the main characteristics from a Taurus is their strength, therefore is quite surprising to know how much they enjoy extra love and affection. 
Although they rarely wear their emotions on their sleeves.

 Taureans often desire the need to be shown a lot of love. 
Don’t let their emotionally strong personality scare you, be generous in your hugs and let it be known- OFTEN!



4.    Independent is not always good

The Taurus personality trait shows they don't go around looking for sympathy from others. They knows that they're strong and can take care of things, and they show this characteristics early in age. 
They are strong believers in eating their feelings to avoid worrying the people they love. Although being independent is one of the best feelings, focus on constantly reminding them IT’S OK to ask for help, and in order to stay sane we must ask for help!


 I often run into this problem with my daughter, and not to mention myself, but little by little I’ve learned to ask for help and she has definitely improved as well.


Have many of you moms have Taurean daughters?

If you have more tips share them below, I'd like to know!


Love Always,

LIFESTYLE: GRANBURY TEXAS

#HolaQueens


How many times have you guys heard that Texas has the most bipolar weather everrrrr?!

 I bet a whole bunch of times huh?

That is such a true statement, during January we went from, rain, ice, tornadoes to amazing sunny days.

In particular I was in love with how amazing January 16th was.
It was such a beautiful day, the sky looked amazing.


Since the day was beautiful, I know I wanted to do something that involved being outside.

I decided to head over to Granbury, TX. 
Granbury, is only about 40 minutes from where I live, so we headed over to the town.


This little town is everything for me, it's old school and out in the middle of nowhere, which I love
The town is not saturated with fast food restaurants, stores which where we live is over saturated with everything you can imagine.
I enjoy to do things that get me out of my ordinary life, seeing different things is one of my greatest pleasures.
Their downtown is so small but lovely, with a few restaurants and local shops.


Each time we head that way we usually spend our time at the lake, they have a small "beach area" with sand and dock. 
Which we usually play for a bit and even dance.
This day we spent a few hours just sitting and admiring how beautiful the day was.





Love Always,

LYFESTYLE: Household Chores with E-Cloth Flexi-Edge Floor & Wall Duster *

#HolaQueens

With the whole back to school madness, homework and regular mom chores, sometimes the household chores seem to get a little behind. 

Which leave us mom's with a great opportunity to implement some responsibility into our little ones by having them help with some chores.

KIDS FASHION: Last Days of Summer

#HolaQueens


We are only a few days away from Fall, and the DFW area still feel like a 1,000 degrees out side!

One of the biggest challenges when it comes to our kiddos, is dressing them up during hot days.

 You may be wondering why, well they just want to linger on a T-shirt and maybe some cotton shorts, sometimes just their underwear. Yeah that's how hot it's here in #Texas

LYFESTYLE: Dallas Arboretum

#HolaQueens

Hello September!

I don't even think I should mention that our months feel so much more like days, should I?

I hope all you mamis had a productive August!

A couple of weeks ago, I was able to to get out of my comfort zone, of course all because of my daughter and my friend, not really because I wanted to.

My friend Erica invited us to the Dallas Arboretum (in real life I don't know how to pronounce that word)

LIFESTYLE: Sundance Square

#HolaQueens


Being a single mother has been a blessing for me, and no I am not lying. 

Although sometimes it can be overwhelming I find it as a blessing. 
You may be asking why is it a blessing but yet I find it overwhelming, well that reason it's because since I am the main source of income, I always have to be working.

LIFESTYLE: Fresas Con Crema

#HolaQueens

¿Cómo están todas esas mamás trabajadoras?

Cada día se hace más corto, y cada día se vive muchísimo mas ajetreado.

Una de las cosas que me gustaría cambiar es aprender a vivir menos apresurada, usualmente pasa porque siempre dejo todo a último momento y luego ahí ando toda carrereada queriendo acabar todo junto.


¿A caso soy la única que vive su vida así?

¡Espero que no!
Si no, la verdad ¡necesito ayuda para cambiar ese mal hábito que tengo!

Con los niños en vacaciones, trabajo y una que otra cosa que a veces uno tiene que hacer (como tomarse una siesta je je)

Hay algo en lo que quisiera enfocarme un poquito más: Esto se trata de pasar más tiempo productivo con mi hija.

#HolaQueen's

When it comes to Festivities, I am not the best to follow them. Well, what I actually mean is that I treat them more as regular days and it's bad I know it, specially having a kiddo!

I have made myself a promise, and that is that I want to create a bit more traditions for my cheeseball, I want her to be able to dress up for holiday's and special events like everyone else, as well as celebrate those special occasions.
