Elephants 🐘

.

Elephant symbolic meaning: This deals primarily with strength, honor, stability and tenacity, among other attributes. Also thought to symbolize luck, fortune, protection and is a blessing upon all new projects.

.

March 2017. I sadly was informed at 12 weeks that I had miscarried. It was one of those experiences that I recall felt like the worst thing at that time. We discovered this 3 days before a planned family vacation. Going away was actually the best thing for me. It was an escape that I needed.

.

While away we stopped at a store. Walking past the baby section set me off on a little emotional spiral but I spotted something that seemed to bring me a sense of comfort. A super soft stuffed elephant. I don’t know why but I liked the comfort it seemed to bring me and I bought it.

.

FAST FORWARD 1 year and 2months later. My Rainbow Blessing *Olivia Faith* graced us with her presence. While on a random shopping trip with my family…my husband picked up this canvas piece and asked me what I thought. It immediately brought me back to that stuffed elephant.

.

A full circle moment. Knowing everything is ok. It was like a kiss from my angel baby and made me want to squeeze and love my little Via more!

I am 35 yrs. old -a Wife and Mother to a Beautiful Boy and my Rainbow Baby Girl. I am a dance and fitness instructor. I own a fitness studio where I offer a variety of fitness classes in the evenings. I recently have become a FULL TIME Fitness Coach after 3+ years of working as a Day Care Assistant after having my Son and leaving my Emotionally Taxing Case Management Position. Fitness is my passion! I love to work out on my own AND with others! Throughout my both of my pregnancies I continued to work out on my own and with Beachbody programs, live my dream of being a work from home mom (for most of the day), and teach at my studio (and other locations) in the evening. After the birth of my son I have worked hard to get my pre-preg. body back. Shaun T's T25 was initial program and then Tony's P90X3 BOTH which I loved the short affective times because with having a newborn baby that was EXACTLY what I needed. I know and understand the self discipline it takes to achieve your desired goals and I am still on that path and have my struggles as everyone else does! I love to offer my support to my clientele with group fitness classes I offer in my community and I feel we work as a team all together to HELP each other. I LOVE offering my support via the web too as I REACH other people that I can't physically see. IT IS AMAZINGLY rewarding and I can't imagine NOT doing what I do! Im currently on my postpartum journey once again and so GRATEFUL and BLESSED to live this healthy lifestyle, lead by example for my family, and support others on their journey too!
