It’s a big day in our household today! The toothfairy is visiting for the very first time. This brings me back to all the firsts we experienced so far!
First steps.
First word.
First full nights sleep.
First sleepover.
First book read.
And now I feel myself thinking of how grown up my baby is going to look with her big teeth. It is so heartwarming and heart wrenching at the same time to watch these big milestone moments.
I remember so vividly this long night when I was very pregnant with Avry and Blake was working nights and I ended up sleeping on a lazyboy with Georgia because she needed her mom. Now shes off in kindergarten losing teeth. When on earth did that happen.
Now we look forward to so many more firsts.
First bike ride without trainers.
First walk to the store without an adult.
First dance.
First boyfriend.
First heart break.
I’m dreading and exitedly anticipating these days at the same time.
Children grow up so fast. Dont blink or you will miss something.
I believe in bucket-filling (a little twist on the bucket list). I want a platform to share my artform(s) that already fill my bucket. I have the degree(s). I survived the young child rearing years. I've landed the leadership dream job. It's time to fill my bucket. Focus on what lights my fire. Rebranding this blog (yet again) to meet me where I am at in this journey called life. I will share my creative writing. I will share my photography. I will share my thoughts on this crazy journey we call life. I like to keep it real. I refuse to live up to "the image". I don't use filters. What you see (read) is what you get. I hope you enjoy the read and I will try to balance what I share in a meaningful way. Ultimately, I keep this blog for me. You (my imagined audience) are an awesome bonus!
