Did you know that smiling helps release cortisol and endorphins which can help lower blood pressure and provide other health benefits? So go ahead… smile! Hey… laugh, while you’re at it! Laughter is good medicine too, stimulating the heart, lungs, and muscles and releasing stress. We pray you have a blessed day, filled with love, joy, smiles, and laughter. #LiveLaughLove #MomOfBoys

What motivates you to travel? Here are a few things that have motivated me to travel: ✨Traveling as a child. ✨I love languages and culture, and actually majored in and have a bachelor’s degree in International Studies. ✨Working a high-stress job/career in my adulthood where folks don’t like to take breaks/vacation, but it’s very much needed for mental and physical health. ✨In June 2020, at 39 years old, I had open-heart surgery, and I am thankful to God for His healing and the ability to travel the world, creating memories with my husband, our sons, and my mom. Let us know, in the comments below, what motivates you. #TravelInspo

Peta-Gaye The name my earthly father chose for me. Comment below if you know the meaning of your name. Of course, with a name like “Peta-Gaye”, people often ask me about the meaning of my name. Just like the name itself, the answer isn’t as straightforward as some. ✨It’s a fairly popular Jamaican name 🇯🇲 ✨For much of my life, so far, my name has not been one you’d find in baby name books or online searches, and years ago, I looked up the meaning of “Peta” which means “Rock” and “Gaye” which means “Joyful”, so I have told people that my name means “Joyful Rock” ✨Now, to my surprise, look whose name is in online baby name directories!? 👀 [Swipe ➡️] According to @thebump, “Peta-Gaye” means “Blessing” While I know my earthly Daddy named me, I have no doubt that my Heavenly Daddy shaped and wired me to be a blessing AND a joyful rock! Do you see the meaning of your name playing out in your life? Let me know in the comments. #WhatsInAName #BabyNames #JamaicanName#JamaicanNames #JoyfulRock #Blessing

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! With Prendergast being my maiden name, I’ve gotta celebrate too! Yes, the name Prendergast is Irish, but it’s Jamaican too, by way of Ireland. While I haven’t yet visited Ireland🇮🇪, I have visited the “Emerald Island of the Caribbean”… Montserrat🇲🇸… and I know the St. Patrick’s Day celebration there is in full swing right now! Montserrat is basically “Little Ireland” and is called the “Emerald Isle of the Caribbean” because of its Irish heritage and its lush green land. We took the smallest plane we’ve flown to date - a seven-seater - to get there and back! It hasn’t yet been two years since our visit, but I’m here wondering when we will visit the volcanic isle again… after all, we drank from the Runaway Ghaut! 💦 IYKYK 👀 There’s a whole story behind that, and it’s all in our “Tour Montserrat With Us | Tiny Volcanic Island | Giant In Music History” vlog on YouTube. Comment below. If you’ve seen our Montserrat series… and, if you haven’t, what are you waiting for? St. Patrick’s Day is the perfect occasion to virtually visit the Caribbean’s Little Ireland! Links to the vlogs are in today’s Instagram Stories! #HappyStPattysDay #StPatricksDay2024 #Montserrat🇲🇸 #Ireland🇮🇪

WHY THE LONG BREAK? ✨ I had to recoup after a very travel-heavy 2022. The family was tired, and I was tired. Although I dipped my toes back in to create content about the Carnival Venezia when it came to NY in 2023, it was a slow travel year for us, and that was intentional. On our way back to NY from Dubai in December 2022, lil LJ, who was 7 at the time, said “Can we NOT do this for like a year?” See… in 2022, we took him and his brother on four cruises and multiple flights to get to and from those cruises. Add to those four cruises, Allan and I did two overseas land baecations, and I started that year with a solo cruise. If y’all missed any of that, the detailed vlogs are all on my YouTube, linked in bio. We were exhausted! SO, WHY ALL THE TRIPS? ✨ I love to travel, and I want others, especially moms and families, to know there’s a variety of travel options within our reach. I want to show my fellow mamas how to make their travel dreams a reality. SUMMING UP… ✨ I’m hoping this helps manage your expectations if you’re on social media looking at family travel content. Traveling extensively can have a tiresome effect on a family, so we take breaks if needed to recoup in terms of finances (yes, we’ve paid for all those trips you’ve seen so far), energy, and mental space. Also, I’m not just a traveling mom, I am a travel content creator, so I am flying and cruising more than I would ever advise the average mom or any one who’s not a content creator to. I do it to showcase the many options that exist so that you can see different options in action and choose what’s best for you and your family. So, please don’t allow me or any other travel content creator to have you booking more trips in a year than you can afford. That is not the goal. The goal is to inspire you to relax and enjoy life, not to stress you out. ❤️ #RealTalk #FamilyTravel #MomsWhoBlog #MomsWhoVlog #FamilyTravelBlogger #LoveYourTimeTogether

Happy 9th Birthday, LJ!!! My baby boy… our baby boy… we love you more than words can express. From loving to hug and cuddle with us to winning the Spelling Bee in your class three years in a row, and winning the school-wide Spelling Bee this school year, to being super smart, funny, and expressive, every day… LJ, you are such a gift! May God continue to bless and keep you, guard and guide you, and teach you His ways that you may have life more abundantly here on earth as you fulfill your God-given purposes! You are a kind, loving, brilliant young man, and I look forward to learning and growing with you, son, as you make this world a better place. I’m proud to call you my son! Love you forever! ❤️❤️❤️ Cover 📸: @sequoyahdanielphotography Outfit/Sweater, Shirt, Pants: @poloralphlauren #BirthdayBoy #BoyMom #LoveYouForever

I’m a work in progress, trying to strike a balance between working and being ambitious to achieve my God-given goals and purpose while also simply and wholeheartedly trusting God and being free to rest when needed. Can you relate? 🙋🏽‍♀️ I think it interesting that these YouTube numbers [Swipe ➡️] show that, even in my pause, in my being still and posting no new content, God ensured that there would be increase for me still! I see You, Lord, and I release all control to You, for it has always rightfully belonged to You! 🙏🏽❤️🙌🏼 Truthfully, Social media can be too noisy at times, and I’m not a fan of the noise. Ask my family… living in NYC, the city that never sleeps, and with my two sons being full of energy, the fam knows that I love to sneak away to a quiet room and close the door. Being on the go all the time may have been attractive to me in my teen years and early adult life, but in these fabulous 40s of mine, I savor my quiet time. To me, social media can create a feeling of pressure to say something all the time, and that isn’t me. I’m the type of person who will be quiet if I have nothing to say at the moment… I’m not one to say something for the sake of speaking… but, when I have something to share or say, I will. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Now, I’m here with things to say… I will share more with you this week about why the long break and managing expectations moving forward. #ThankYouGod #RealTalk #FamilyTravel #LifestyleBlogger #LifestyleVlogger #TravelBlogger #TravelVlogger

Hey fam, new and old! 👋🏼 If you’re new here, WELCOME! If you’ve been rocking with us for a while, THANK YOU for being here and sticking around, even through this recent long pause in content. I am/We are back, babyyyy! Let me take this return to the content scene as an opportunity to re-introduce myself! Drop a comment if any of this info is new to you or if we have anything in common. My name is Peta-Gaye… ✨Friends call me Peta. ✨I love Jesus 🙏🏽 ✨I’m Jamaican-born and raised 🇯🇲 ✨I’ve lived in NYC 🗽 for decades. ✨I’ve visited every country in the Caribbean and North America, as well as a number of countries in Central America, South America, Europe and Asia… with more loading… ✨I’m a full-time working wife to Allan and mom to our sons, AJ and LJ. ✨I’m the founder of My Cruising Family, LLC. ✨I started creating content years ago to show others the many possibilities for travel, especially, but not only, through cruising. ✨My content focuses on travel, motherhood, lifestyle, and faith. ✨In June 2020, I had open-heart surgery to repair my mitral valve, and in October 2021, Allan also underwent surgery. We take these experiences as huge reminders to be grateful and to live our lives to the fullest! I am that mommy friend who shares, listens, and encourages. One way I encourage is by sharing my travels - and although I’ve traveled solo and with my hubby, most of my travels are with our family, so you’ll see me (wife/mom), Allan (husband/dad), AJ (son/brother who just turned 13 years old in December), LJ (son/brother who turns 9 years old this month), and Sharon (mommy/grandma). OUR CRUISE TALLY SO FAR: ✨Peta-Gaye: 18 & counting ✨Allan: 15 & counting ✨AJ: 14 & counting ✨LJ: 12 & counting ✨Mommy/Grandma: 10 & counting FLIGHT TALLY: Way too many to count!
