welcome to my creative and happy space. i hope you love it all!
All in journal
this week felt very in routine, full of reading (finished the school for good mothers, and oh my), watching friends (because we were both beat), and coming up with some fun plans for spring and summer. we decompressed this weekend with my favorite pizza place, rom coms, more friends, and of course football.
and somehow it is already february, which feels surreal. in so many ways i feel like it was christmas yesterday, meanwhile i’m counting down the days to warmer weather and baby boy’s arrival.
these january weeks seem to go by in a total blink of an eye, especially the days it feels like we’re still hibernating.
we’ve had the best summer, visiting families, taking vacation time, and showing off as much as summer has to offer to our girls. from bethany beach, to lake placid, and back to the beach, we’ve run the gamut of finding any water to cool off and splash in, any quiet space away from the sticky, humidity that is maryland, and for maya to try any and every summer fruit she could get her hands on.
I consider myself incredibly fortunate in my life; one filled with a loving and whole family, friends that I’d walk through fire for, a husband who shares my dreams, and a sweet baby and puppy who remind me to keep building that life. I’ve also learned that fortune of that nature comes with an immense amount of respect for not only the peaks in life, but also the valleys.
Ultimately, vulnerability is grace. It’s letting yourself crack wide open, and doing the same for others. Quietly showing up, with love and support; you feel the good and the bad and find moments for growth, while finding beauty and grace to see the world through that lens.
