FIGHT LIKE A GIRL..

Lizbeth Benacquisto fights like a girl... and wins.

She's a mom. She's Majority Leader of the Florida Senate. Majority Leader. She may fight like a girl, but there are forty members in the Florida Senate and she's the one they call Leader.

She fights to cut taxes and balance the budget and she wins.

She fought for the Cancer Treatment Fairness Act and she won. She fought for the Florida GI Bill for our Veterans and she won. She's fought against the expansion of Medicare and stood up for local control of our schools - and she wins.

Lizbeth has fought to protect the unborn - and she wins.

In nine days, the people of Southwest Florida will go to the polls in a special election for Congress and they'll have a clear choice. A choice that will impact all Floridians - because the person they choose will go to Washington to either fade into the fray or fight for us all.

I hope and pray they send Lizbeth. She'll fight like a girl - and we'll all win!

I hope after reading this you will stop by and contribute to Lizbeth for Congress. I just made mine and would love for you to join me in supporting Lizbeth for congress.

Woman Crush Wednesday: Ann Lois Romney


Ann Romney to me is a woman of grace and class. Through out the 2008 and 2012 election she was a strong and confident woman who stood beside her husband and supported him in his run for Presidency. Ann Romney is more than just the women who stood beside her husband while he took the spotlight, she is a woman with an education and a woman of strength which is what won her the spot of my first Woman Crush Wednesday post.
Let me first start off by saying if you have not seen the Mitt special on Netflix stop what you are doing and go watch it right this instance. Anyways let me start with the early history of Mrs. Romney. Ann Romney was born Ann Lois Davies on April 16 1949 in Detroit Michigan. Ann and Mitt Romney have known each other since early Elementary school days. The two went to the paired all boys and all girls schools where they lived. The two were re-introduced in 1965 which is when they would begin their relationship. Ann made the decision in her early years of college to convert to Mormonism and did so under the guidance of George Romney, Mitt Romney's father which is where she would be re-introduced to Mitt. In 1968 the pair married and would have their first child by 1970. Ann Romney went on to be a stay at home mother to her and Mitts 5 sons. Ann was criticized by her parents and peers for marrying and starting a large family so young. Ann didn't mind though and became an active member in the PTA, taught seminary to the young children in their community, and was a member of The League of Women voters. Ann planned to go back and receive her masters but children, family, and later health problems would stall that process.
In the later part of 1998 Ann underwent many test and not far before 

Thanksgiving and was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. The affects of MS took a rough toll on Mrs. Romney at first but she learned how to use mainstream and alternative treatments to help with the pain. Equestrian riding was a big help for Ann Romney.
Ann Romney has been involved in many charitable events prior to politics and throughout her husbands political career. My love and inspiration for Mrs. Romney is more than just her grace and poise. Anne Romney is a woman who built a bond and relationship with a man that many married couples will never experience, she built a family and a legacy that will live on forever, and she opened her life and home to Americans so they could see the real Romney's. Ann Romney is a strong woman and a woman I hope to one day become. 

I have shared with you my woman crush and a littler bit about her background now I would love for you to share yours. Comment or email me sharing who you look up to and get inspired by each day I would love to know.
