Fun Time With My Son & A Ford Escape Review

Inspiration, Video / By Blanca Stella / 3 minutes of reading / May 10, 2012

When people ask me what I blog about, I usually say I blog about inspiration, motivation and leadership with the heart and about sharing special moments with my son. I am not a mom blogger because he is now a 6’2″, 190 lb. man, but the biggest highlight of my entire life has been being a mom to my only son who is now 19 years old. He is one of the biggest inspiration of my life and my happiest moments are random moments that make him happy.

Recently, Ford let me test out the Ford Escape for a few days. The car was delivered on a rainy Saturday while my son was studying for his final exams at FIU( Florida International University).

Blogger Friends & Friends of The Heart

Inspiration / By Blanca Stella / 3 minutes of reading / April 23, 2012

Last week I attended Hispanicize conference. It was a massive event with about 800 attendees, many of them bloggers. I was able to catch up with two bloggers I have had the luck to meet in person at several conferences before, Denisse Icaza of Ahorros Para Mama and Mirna Arce of Ahorros Con Cupones.

Denisse was one of my roommates at Blogher in August, 2010 in my first blogging conference I ever attended. It was fun to spend a great deal of time getting to know her beautiful, sweet spirit and to learn everything she was doing with her blog.

This smart 13 year old spoke like an adult describing the retina screen. “Pretty techy”, I thought. OK, his dad is in the computer business, but his review brought a smile to my face while I was videoing Dylan. What a cutie! Don’t you think?
