Cupcake Night with the kids.

Tonight I was bored from being trapped in the house because of the snow, but it's not like i would have gone out if there was no snow...lol I'm a indoors person. but anywho. I baked some yummy cupcakes for the kids. I'm working on making butterflies with chocolate, I still have to keep trying, they didn't come out the way I hoped. next I will do Hello Kitty chocolates for cupcakes...I'm going to make this work for me.

Oh yeah, I will be working on designing my blog soon. Trying to make it fit me, I like the sky and the green grass but it's not ALAYA, it not what i am and it don't say Alaya.

SNOW SNOW SNOW!!!! 14" of snow today and it is going to snow again Sat Jan 29th 2011 the day of Elijah European Lunch+ice cream, I may have to do a rain check. I hope not but oh well we will see.

Snow day,

Today was a nice snow day, I didn't do much today, I went to work and came home and cleaned up the house. I should have baked some cakes or something. not much of a dreamer today that's for sure...lol

It's 7pm nd the snow is falling from the sky, the news says that it will  be 10" of this stuff, I wonder if the schools will be open...lol. My son and I will go out and shovel peoples sidewalks for money, I wonder how much we will raise for his fundraiser. Elijah don't like being cold so I'm not sure how long will plan on doing this, but I hope he goes with me.
I will let you know how it goes.

How amazing

Today was amazing, just the other day I was making cold calls to see who was coming out to my son Elijah's European Lunch + Ice cream fundraiser event to family and friends. Just be told that they had to work or could not make it for personal reasons, I was getting a little down because I booked a place and will be having a host from the Princess House collection come out.

Low and behold, I get a call from my council woman for my district asking me about the European Lunch+Ice cream fundraiser, She wanted more information about the event. I was so blown away and so filled with joy. She told me that she will tell the people in her office and her friends about the event to come out to the fundraiser. Then after that I got a call from my son's Leader from the people to people and she is meeting me at the Olive Garden that day with other parents of Student ambassadors, and on top of all of that my mother calls me and starts asking me about the time and where this event will take place so that she can invite her friends.

I just thank the Lord for everything because I know that with out faith you only live in fear, I live in faith, hope and believe in the Lord.

Now I just Hope that there will be enough sets. :) I'm sure there will be.

Olive Garden 83 City ave Bala Cywyd PA. all are welcome. Jan 29th 1pm - 3:30pm.

Getting things in order

Hello Blog readers,


Today was a cold cold day, not to sound like a Dr.Suss story or anything but it was.
Today I focused on how many People will come out to My son Elijah Fundraiser event at the Olive Garden. So far I think 7 people are coming out of 30 invites. I'm hopping that those who did not reply will still show up and support Elijah. I think as a child we need to see that we are doing something wonderful by seeing a group of people come out and show that they care. He is a shy child but sweet and respectful. I know that he will do well here in the USA and in Europe. He has always been a wonderful person.
I hope that someone is reader my daily Bolgs and relize that being a mother who wants something wonderful for her child is welling to do what she can.


I will be planning a trip to Dorney Park soon so stay posted if you Live in the Pa area, This will be a group effort from the Student Ambassadors from PA. 


If you would like to support my son goal to go to Europe with the People to people student ambassador program, You may come out and learn more about Elijah Chisolm and enjoy a Lunch and Ice cream. Plates of food and Ice cream will cost $30 per person. and there will also be a host there from the Princess House Collection. Anyone is more then welcomed to joy us in the wonderful event. If you plan on coming out to support his fundraiser the event will take Place at:
                              Olive Garden 83 City ave Bala Cynwyd PA time: 1pm until 3:30pm

Dreaming again :P

Let me start off with allowing you to get to know a little about me. I'm a mother of three children and I live in the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia. I grew up in this city. I was in LD classes all my life, But i never felt like i belonged in them. I didn't learn very much in school. my classes was small and the teacher gave up on us many times. Sometimes the other children would not listen and I believe that is why most of those teachers gave up on us. I sometimes wonder what would have become if the teachers didn't give up so easily.

I have always been a dreamer, I never really lived out my dreams, I wanted to own a daycare center then i wanted to start a nanny agency I always dream of traveling the world, and taking road trips ever year, but i don't know why I just don't do it. I always stop at the dream. This time for my son I not stopping at the dream of seeing him live out his dream to travel to Europe. I am going to make it happen. This will be the first dream that I turn into some that becomes real, I will turn from a Dreamer to a Doer.

We did car wash and lemonade sales, we also sold cupcakes and Cakes. Now I'm trying to Host events.

Today I'm a little down because of my son fundraiser events are not going as planned. I am hosting an event at the Olive Garden for him to raise money and out of 30 invites only 3 people said yes to coming. I'm not sure how to make these fundraiser events work. I thought having family come out would be a great way for the family to support my son. My son is going away to Europe for 20 days with the People to people student ambassador program. I don't have a very good paying Job but I'm blessed to have it. That is why I'm doing the fundraiser, because I don't make much money to pay for it my self. Other wise I would, but doing these fundraiser is helping my son realize how to save money and working hard can pay off in the end.

My son Elijah is 13 years old and shares the same dream as I do. That is to travel that world. He is getting a wonderful head start if we get up that funds for him. He will go to London, France, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands and  Switzerland for 20 days. This trip is going to cost $6,499 and it has to be paid by May 1st 2011. If you would like to help him out just let me know. That would be great! But I'm sure with our Luck so far that won't happen. But it was a great try :)

So far we Raised over $2000 in the past 6 months. But if you think you can really support him just call The people to people student ambassador program at 1800-669-7882 and let them Know that your making a donation towards Elijah Chisolm  I.D# 10084708 delegate Tuition or go to http://payment.peopletopeople.com Thank you!

If someone could donate $1.00 we would be so happy to know that someone out there cares.

The people to people is a educational program and will help him in the future when he is ready for college he will have a wonderful chance of going to the college of his choice. Going to college was something I wish i could have done.A donation of any size would help him go a long way.

If you would like to learn more about the program go to www.peopletopeople.com and learn more about this Program that Allow children and teen travel the world to learn about the world we live in and become an ambassador for our Country.

Do you have any wonderful IDEAS to help him raise funds? We have $4000 dollars more to go. That does not include spending money for him when he goes or his passport.
 I will keep you all posted on his fundraising events and how he is doing.
