“I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”
things have been just a bit silent around here as we readjust to life once again.
nothing much has changed or anything, but i feel like it's something that needs to happen in our little house from time to time.
just a little step back to figure out where we are with everything, and how to live our days out well.
the kids are growing and changing and becoming more and more of their own little people by the day. we're praying over and considering what might be best for us in the ways of business ventures and collaboration in the search for that creative-work-life balance.
we're researching serious diet changes and the implications it will have (or not have) on our family and budget.
but really, we're just trying to live and breathe and push into each other. freshly aware of the quickness of the days and the short-lived moments of this life.
because i need to remember more often that this life is fresh, full of changes and failing and learning and growing.
it's been refreshing for me to start to realize and embrace the fact that i need these seasons of reorienting to pepper the rest of my days on a regular basis. to brainstorm and evaluate how our lives should look, how to best serve those around me, and how to love them all well.
as always, i am always open to suggestions. life as a mother of two little ones has thus far not often ceased to bring new challenges.
but these days, i'm starting to expect it, and become more expectant for the growth that follows.
and for the grace to get there.
love.
I love this. Not enough families do this.
