Welcome to September!

by - edited

Hello my LCNY fashionistas......welcome to September. I feel like I just wrote a blog welcoming all of us to summer. How quickly time flies and seasons change. I hope you had a fabulous memory-making summer.

The schools are once again filled with anxious students to start the beginning of the new year. The athletic fields are full each night and weekend with excited parents and would be soccer and football players. September for me always marked the beginning of new ...... school, sports, activities, family dinners and routine.

I love all of the seasons and welcome each change with open arms; however, there is something about the beginning of fall and the ending of summer. The change in the sun. The foliage starts to look a little worn. My plants on my deck have just about given me their all......but I am not quite ready to replace with MUMS. The evenings have a chill in the air, the kind where you throw the windows open for a good night's sleep. I believe that in September Mother Nature gives you a final glimpse of greatness just before the trees change and the weather turns.

Sarah and Meghan, our beautiful twins, were born September 12, 1987. You need to know I found out I was having twins a month before they were born. SURPRISE!! The due date for my darling unborn child was October 30th. I started measuring just a bit bigger than the doctor thought I should, but he was not alarmed.

My family always vacationed in August at the shore and a lovely woman approached me by the waters edge and asked when my twins were due. I am not having twins I told her and my baby is due in October. She was quite adamant that I was having twins.....weird ......right? That entire week at the beach I saw twins everywhere. By the time I got home to see my doctor I knew deep down as only a mommy knows that something was a bit different. Sure enough, the ultra sound showed two babies.

On a beautiful warm September day some leaves starting to change, my new mums had replaced my wilting annuals, there was a chill in the air, my beautiful darlings decided they were not going to wait until October. Identical blond hair, blue eyed baby girls came in to our lives. I sometimes wonder if the woman on the beach has ever read my blogs......because she was so right about my twins. That is why I think of September and fall as new beginnings because that is the month I became a Mom...... my best job ever. 😊

So this lovely month of September we get to share with you two 2-hour shows.....September 2nd and September 9th. So, join MBR, yours truly and Carolann for LCNY and QVC's fall fashion fest. You know the drill ... grab your cup of joe and get ready for girl talk, friendship and of course, fashion.

See you soon.

Your friend,

Linda
