All tape & glue....
that is how I feel lately.
Pulled in many wonderful directions
and so there is little time left for blogging.
But just in case your wondering all is well.
You know how someone will say something and it really sticks in your head?
For me that often happens when someone is showing a vulnerable part of themselves.
Misty Mawn (amazing artist) said at an art retreat last May that she was "all tape and glue".
That stuck for me.... I loved the visual. I loved the honesty.
That while I am here, seemingly put together, I have done so with much help, with much tape and glue.
I have been feeling pulled in so many directions. Wanting to create, both for Serendipity7 but also to get in the art studio and create art. Wanting to have real moments with my kids and not be chasing my tail in the grind. So hoping to slow down a bit...
Since my last post in April...
there have been
soccer games for 3 boys, baseball, school ending, a trip to FL, summer school, an art workshop,
a trip up to Minocqua for a grown-up weekend, days at the pool, days at the boat house, visit to MN, 3 birthdays....Drew turned 9 May 18th, Judson 11 on July 1st and Tessa 3 on July 1st too!
A birthday party, family visiting, a baptism & becoming god-parents to sweet Parker and Cooper,
potty training, regression and more potty training,
and a huge landscaping project here at home.
phew!
Its a lot and the part of me that wants to document it all just doesn't have it in me at the moment.
I am really wanting to be present.
Hopefully, I am documenting these moments in my mind forever....and less here.
Maybe that is just where I am at....overwhelmed a bit and allowing myself to just be.
So, here is what I have to share today.
Life is full, it is good and I continue to try and find the balance
ha, ha!
so you have photos to look at here is our sweet girl, who is growing way to fast.
Today I took these sweet photos in the Ethiopian dress we purchased for our sweetie while in Ethiopia. I can hardly believe it fits her now!
geez. how did that happen.
