in 2013, i am choosing to spend more time blogging. this was a big step for me because for some time, i wondered if i had anything to add to this blog community & if my time was best spent writing here.
i finally decided to take a chance, believe in my story & share it with you regularly. i am choosing to write to you every monday, wednesday, and friday. this little routine has inspired my creative life & opened many doors to deep friendships & new opportunities.
i am not sure where this little blog will take me, but i do know that the time i spend writing here is valuable. it allows me to record our lives in such precious detail. this space also reminds me to seek beauty in even the simplest of moments. it has also taught me to find joy & share it with you. this space, i hope, is a safe place for us to share our ideas & find comradery along our own life journeys.
a friend once told me that my blog wasn’t real life & seemed too perfect. that’s maybe true; i’m not quite sure. what i do know & can promise you, though, is that our house is dirty most of the time & i often rush around without taking a moment’s breath to notice the quiet around me. luke & i disagree, sometimes we spend money we don’t have & we struggle in too many ways than i care to count.
when i do allow myself a few minutes to sit down to share my story here, i remember the goodness in my one wild & crazy life. it might be just part of our story, but i believe it’s the most precious.
i blog because i want to find beauty in the everyday. thank you so, so much for following along.
love,
natalie
