It’s a momentous milestone when your child graduates from college. My daughter (my oldest) graduated from college as a double major, so she earned 2 Bachelor degrees. That was a proud time, but she didn’t stop there. She continued her education and we are getting ready to celebrate another graduation. Graduating with honors and a 4.0 GPA she will receive her Masters in Public Administration.
What’s more impressive, is she started a 6 week internship with an agency (will not give the name to protect her privacy) soon after starting school. They were so impressed with her work in those few weeks, they never let her go. She will be hired full-time in an executive position after graduation! She has been working for them full-time and going to school at an accelerated pace. It makes me really proud that she could do all that and maintain her honors status. She is also going to be receiving some very impressive awards from the university in her field of study which is really exciting.
When you think about the work and sacrifice that is put into earning a college, masters, or higher degree, you want to make sure that you honor the graduate and also their achievement. As we draw closer to graduation season, graduation gifts are a topic of interest. If you have a child or relative graduating this spring, Church Hill Classics has gorgeous Official School frames that are unlike anything I have seen before.
I am so excited, about a week ago I ordered one for my daughter’s diploma from their website. Her university was one of the official schools they have frames for. I was able to choose from a selection of frames and then I could customize with mat color, frame color, frame style and more. I chose the Presidential Gold Engraved Diploma Frame and customized with the black suede mat, solid hardwood, rich mahogany frame and upgraded the glass to the conservation UV plus reflection control.
A couple of days ago a huge box was delivered. I had to check it out and I was very impressed. It was packaged very securely and arrived in perfect condition. The pictures don’t do it justice because the flash and the upgraded glass don’t want to be friends, but it is gorgeous! I cannot wait for her to see it with her diploma! I will definitely update with that!
Church Hill Classics frames are made proudly in the USA. The video below will show you how they create these magnificent diploma frames. You will be amazed at the quality of craftsmanship and expert care that is taken to ensure every customer receives a museum quality frame to protect and showcase their hard-earned diploma. #EarnItFrameIt
Church Hill Classics has graciously offered to sponsor a giveaway on Mommy Ramblings! They will be offering one lucky blog reader a code to order a diploma frame ($200 value)! Thank you Church Hill Classics for the beautiful review frame and for sponsoring this graduation giveaway on Mommy Ramblings!!! Open to US residents.

Pregnancy weight gain and postnatal weight loss are subjects that most moms can relate to. It’s amazing how weight gain and subsequent weight loss can vary so much from pregnancy to pregnancy. There are some of my 5 full term pregnancies where I gained very little weight and others I gained a lot. With my 5th pregnancy I only gained 13 lbs and was less coming home from the hospital than before I conceived. With my first pregnancy I was 20 lbs underweight when I conceived and gained around 4o lbs. The day after I delivered, I weighed myself in the hospital and was already down 20 lbs! Since I had been underweight, I left the hospital at a normal pre-pregnancy weight.
With my second pregnancy, I gained about 35 or so pounds but I remember I had to jump-start the weight loss with major diet changes and fat burning workouts. When I started losing, it came off really fast. In fact, it seemed my metabolism went into overdrive and I kept losing weight no matter what I ate. I ended up losing too much and was back down to the 20 lbs under weight mark. With my 3rd I only gained about 30 lbs which was the least of all to that point and the baby was almost 9 lbs. I remember taking him for his two-week check up in my prepregnancy jeans.
My fourth was almost like my second in that I had to work harder to lose the weight but I also was not in my 20s any longer. The 5th like I said was easier but I still wanted to lose more weight so I started an exercise and food plan that worked for me and lost about 20 more pounds.
If you are trying hard to lose pregnancy weight, there is something that may help you get rid of the baby weight faster than diet and exercise alone. FitTea’s PostNatal Fatburner is a 100% natural supplement that is safe to use even when breastfeeding. After you give birth you go through so many emotions and physical changes. It can be a very challenging time, adjusting to a new baby, not sleeping well, not eating well and hormones running wild can make you feel worse about the weight you need to lose.
If you looked into herbal or other weight loss supplements they may have a warning that they are not safe or should not be taken if you are breastfeeding your baby. FitTea’s PostNatal Fatburner is not only safe but increases your mild supply. In fact if you are breastfeeding and taking FitTea’s PostNatal Fatburner you are giving your post baby body a 1,2 Punch! Since breastfeeding burns calories, taking the supplement can double the amount of fat you are burning.
One of the other benefits of the PostNatal Fatburner is that it increases milk supply and healthy antibodies for baby. That means it can help build your baby’s immune system while it increases lactation and lets you burn more fat. There are no stimulants like caffeine or anything hazardous to the health of your child. The supplement is safe, effective and 100% natural. It will increase your energy levels and is a thermogenic fat burner. Before starting anything new it is wise to check with your doctor.
Would you like to win some PostNatal Fat Burner from FitTea? Then just enter the giveaway below for your chance. Good luck!!!
