two years
I am still a normal girl with insecurities, hairy arms and occasional bouts with hemorrhoids. I am afraid of butterflies and wear only white socks. I love being a mom, except when I have to take my sons with me to the grocery store or mention Santa's cell phone number in March. and on most days, I'd rather do some coloring than my writing practice.
it's been two years now since I started this blog, and it hasn't always been easy. yet I hope that this little place of mine has reminded you to delight in the little things, find beauty in your every day life. that it has comforted and made you laugh at times, and encouraged you to keep writing and creating through the most boring, stressful and confusing circumstances.
my mentor recently told me that God takes pleasure and great joy when I am most being myself, when I fully embrace all that I am. and I realized that it's something I'm often incapable of. so thank you. thank you for calling me a good mother every time I mistake my failures, guilt and fears for what I am. thank you for calling me a writer and help me accept this fact. thank you for delivering compounded quantities of support and kindness every day. for allowing me to connect to your lives. and for calling me your friend.
