Hey!


Courtney here from I Can Be Many Things! I am so happy to be guest blogging today. Sam is such a wonderfully positive person. Her blog never fails to put a smile on my face! This is something that's a must in my books!


So to introduce myself... I am the mother of a beautiful vivacious little girl. She takes up most all of my time and we have so much fun. I would rather let the house fall down around me and have the best day with her...than have a clean house. I have become obsessed with fashion blogs--I love finding inspiration from real girls who lead normal lives. It inspires me to work the wardrobe I have--and has helped me cut down drastically on my shopping. I am a classically trained Opera singer, and I love to record pop songs in my spare time. I am a songwriter and a voice teacher.
My most recent video is a cover of Adele's Someone Like You:










But the most important part... I need to stop, take a moment every day to think positively. And smile.


Here's what made me smile this week: pumpkin spice lattes... watching the leaves fall off the trees... finding your favorite skinnies on sale at Gap... then finding the perfect cable knit sweater to match and wearing your new outfit home from the mall... rekindling a relationship with my sister, who I haven't spent time with in a year... this 14 year old rapper "astro" on #xfactor... hearing my daughter say she loves me, and giving me the biggest hugs... how she finds my hand before she falls asleep and places it on her cheek.

What makes you smile?
