May | Currently

settling into some sort of routine again just in time for Fire Season to fully hit and disrupt the normalcy we are finally finding

feeling so incredibly blessed for the extra time with Berke and the privilege to fully follow our shelter in place orders while others have no other choice to be on the front lines

hoping other people that have the ability to think of others and act in ways that keep their fellow humans safe

thanking those doing the hard work every chance I get

dousing all the things in all the Thieves Cleaner

so freaking happy to have amazing, and clean, products for our home

working on a new project that I am super excited about

printing so many photos to get ready for it

stoked our driveway was redone and we don't have to worry about it washing away again

chasing the kids out of the culvert daily

celebrating 5 years with our boy 

wondering where time has gone

doing our best to make him feel special while maintaining social distance

loving my mornings again now that the plants are blooming and the birds are singing again

eating the best chocolate truffles I bought myself for Mother's Day

making a plan to FINALLY finish my chair project from over two years ago 

watching the 2019 Little Women movie and not loving it

reading Friendship Bread and a ton of titles by Lisa Jewell

liking those a lot more

listening to all the "made for you" Spotify playlists extra loud

journaling as much as possible as I work through some unresolved trauma

diffusing a new favorite blend: Thieves, Stress Away and Valor

helping the kids with little lessons each day as Kindergarten nears

loving all the little random things they remember leaving no room for rote memorization of letters and numbers
