As explained earlier about T1’s weekly stay at Nan’s, on her 2nd week, she made Mommy some paper jewelery from cut out magazines, then rolled them using a thin chopstick and glued together to make little paper beads. Awesome!

She excitedly presented me with 2 boxes, pink and purple. Wow! I was thinking to myself……they even came packaged!

One paper necklace and one paper bracelet strewn together with intermingling pearl and plastic beads. No QC, the Hubs said when he saw that the necklace wasn’t symmetrically aligned with the same beads on both sides. T1 said, “That’s the way it’s been designed!!” Well done, girl. You go teach your boring Dad.

I had to wear them immediately, of course. The good thing is that because I am allergic to costume jewelery with cheap metals, I was able to wear these with ease. The down side? I had to be extra careful when washing hands.

On top of making paper jewelery and their legendary 3 hour swim that’s caused Uncle Ben to turn into a Burmese construction worker, T1 also made the best that I’ve ever tasted cup cakes. Wayyyyyyyyy better than every cup cake I’ve ever tasted. If the ones at BV cost RM5, these were worth RM10, and I’m not being biased. Just coming from an experienced cup cake taster. Thank you, Nana. These really tasted so good.
The decoration though was another matter. T1 insisted on decorating the cakes herself as well, so on went the uneven icing (which is ok) but I really don’t like eating rainbow rice and rainbow stars. Yuck.
But because the cup cakes were so, SO glorious, I overlooked the rainbow bits of sugar. In fact, I ate 4 all at one go. Nom, nom, nom....

She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.
Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.
She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.
A beautiful life without limits.
If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.
Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.
Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
