Lent / Boys

For the season of lent I'm adding in some extra quiet space in my mornings. I'm also off of Instagram, which is, of course, a very typical thing to do, but always worthwhile. I love Instagram and the people I connect with there and the inspiration I get, but a couple times a year my brain needs serious space from other people's social media lives.

Here are some things I would have posted lately...



Glimpses of the sun! Outdoor time! Granted we spent 10 days of February in the Florida sun, but it's lovely to get the first taste of winter coming to an end...



Sweet Soren...getting scary close to being one. Already acting way too old, trying to do things his brothers do, and is a little too brave for his own good. He's going to be so much fun and such a liability this summer!




I'm trying to take more pictures WITH the boys...even if they are just selfies. These are the people I spend my days with right now and I want to capture that, even if the pictures don't always show the reality.


So far I'm loving 2019...I finally feel normal from postpartum stuff. I've done some hard work for brain health and spiritual growth and I'm seeing some of the benefits of that. And have been dreaming and making plans for the future. This might not sound like much, but after last year, it feels very good and energizing.

love that you're getting a little extra quiet - it does the brain good, doesn't it?

Very thankful you are coming out of the fog. Best feeling. Good work.

I told you this on Instagram (not sure if you checked it), but that B&W pic of you and Ira is stunning. I love it so much.

Ooh, so happy I checked this and got to see "what would've been on Instagram..." :) So happy for you for the positive changes in 2019 so far. May they only continue. And Soren sitting in that car is making me do a double-take. Growing up and loving it.
