blessings of this community

there are really no words to describe this deep, rich, beautiful community of fellow bloggers & instagram friends that i have the privilege of sharing life with everyday. even if we are sharing life miles & miles apart.

today i simply want to say thank you.
every evening when luke & i sit down to dinner & share our days with one another, i always have something to share about you. emails of encouragement flooding my inbox after i shared a bit of my struggles with all of you. a beautifully-crafted package to brighten my day. a simple text message just to say “hello” & check-in. gorgeous, inspiring photos of your lives. blog posts that bring about a change in my thinking & way of living.  an invitation to share the weekend with you & a bunch of other amazing ladies.   
i often have a hard time sharing my “online life” with my day-to-day life, or “real life,” but this community is worth sharing! it might seem a bit odd from an outsider’s perspective, but to me, you all are a bunch of inspiring, amazing people who i call dear friends. thank you for challenging, encouraging & inspiring me each day! 
love,
natalie
