Just when I felt like I was in the swing of things and posting here regularly, I realized I needed to step back and have more "free" time in my evenings. I had posts planned~ it's World Breastfeeding Week, and I wanted to talk about that, but it's actually why I've been quiet in this space. I've been dealing with some nursing issues for a few weeks now that require I rest, and for me that is quite hard to do. I always have a mental to do list running in my mind, and it's hard to slow down and turn that off.
This quote was on the minimalist blog I follow (for more inspiration read becoming minimalist, he's amazing!) “This is your life. Are you who you want to be?” - Jonathan Foreman
I've been thinking a lot about how I want my life to be, and how I want my children to view life. I don't want them to be rushed or stressed, so it's essential I don't model those things. We have some vacation time coming up, I'm looking forward to campfires and the soothing ocean waves. Hopefully I'll be healed soon, in the mean time I am enjoying these moments, for they are my life, and all I have.
