Short & sweet.

I just wrote a huge blog, explaining how I need to go easy on myself, not care so much what others think, and then I erased it, because I need to realize that I don't have to give the world an explanation for every feeling I feel.

Yesterday I went & tried on wedding dresses for the first time & it was awesome. I can genuinely say I wasn't thinking about how I have a gut lol, or that my skin looked awful. Standing there in a white fitted dress, with a veil, I truly felt beautiful.

I feel like I've had a lot of epiphanies lately, in a really, really good way. I need to go easy on myself. Worry less (as much as I possibly can with the way my brain works) and pursue things I love. I think I'll try to write a book, and not worry if I fail, & as cheesy as that sounds I'm excited for it. I can't wait for this summer & the next chapter in my life.

Here are a few of my favorite finds as of late:

Vintage shot glasses.

 vintage goblets.

 vintage oil lamp. Love the color.

Painting, on a Friday night. I'm a wild one.

 

here's a little peek from yesterday. Not the one, but so much fun. :)

 

 

Autism Awareness Day.



No day is the same as the one before. Some days I come home crying or am furious & some I can't stop laughing. Something as simple as the kids making eye contact with me, saying my name unprompted or even hearing them sing along with me during circle can bring tears to my eyes, and I never had appreciated such small gestures before. These kids will always hold a large piece of my heart.
