Elayna Fernandez ~ The Positive MOM
I have learned that achieving JOY, FREEDOM, and MEANING in life is a journey, rather than a destination.

The last Sunday of July is Father’s Day in my home country and August 10th is my dad’s birthday. I miss my DAD. He is my HERO in so many ways. He always finds a way to LIFT me up, CHEER me up, replace my tears with GIGGLES and SMILES, and help me see my …
As a Caribbean island native, I love coconuts and I especially love coconut water. Not all “young Thai coconuts” come from Thailand. 🙂 In my home country, the Dominican Republic, you can just pick young coconuts wherever you may be, and when you buy them, they are so inexpensive because they’re everywhere!
