Over a year ago I began reading and hearing more about rising early. Getting up before the rest of the house, spend the time focused on your needs and what you like to do, connecting where you need to connect. My husband had been doing that for quite some time and knew the benefits. IContinue reading “100 Days of Summer ~ Mornings”

100 Days of Summer ~ Playground Play
My family and I live in Minnesota. We have four seasons just like every where else. However, our Winter lasts twice as long and our Summer is short it seems.

100 Days of Summer ~ S\’mores
As a kid I remember the Summer days camping and ending the evenings around the fire. A lot of times it was sitting there, listening, some talking, but relaxing into the night. But it also meant pudgie pies and s\’mores. I remember sitting around the open bonfire, toasting marshmallows or having flaming torches then squishingContinue reading “100 Days of Summer ~ S\’mores”

In an effort to slow down, savor the moments more, and fully live the Summer months I am doing 100 days of Summer. For me 100 days of Summer is…bubbles.

They bring suchContinue reading “100 Days of Summer ~ Bubbles”

So, during this seasonContinue reading “100 Days of Summer”
Coming to Terms
I knew from the day that we decided to start a family that I wanted to stay home if we could make it happen. My husband felt the same way too. However, we both agreed that if it didn\’t feel right after trying it, I was more than welcome to go back to work ifContinue reading “Coming to Terms”
Tough week, but not why you would think
This has been a long week. Yes, I know it is only Tuesday. But it doesn\’t change the fact that I am emotionally, spiritually, mentally drained causing me to be physically drained as well. For me, this long week didn\’t begin on Sunday. It began on January 26. Let me explain. From the outside, toContinue reading “Tough week, but not why you would think”

It is Winter in the Minnesota. We are closing in on the middle of it and the deepest part of the cold. However, for me, this not why I struggle during this time of the year.

Embrace
At times over the past years I have made resolutions at the start of the new year. But as the year progressed I would end up forgetting about them or finding that it wasn\’t a great fit. Four years ago I came across the idea of choosing a one word motto for the next year. Continue reading “Embrace”
