i’ve never seriously pretended to be everything and a bag of chips (well, at least not in the last 3ish years)…and I’m not perfect . BUT I try to be as good as I can get myself to be in whatever ways i can muster up on a daily basis. We’re all broken, [...]

i just finished reading this article. Read it. I’ll wait (even though it is long). Done? Good.

2. I love who I am, who my kids are, and the places we have been together over the last few years. It has been hard, but seeing the outcome [...]

i think it is interesting that sometimes you don’t find out the way people will fit best into your life until you try them on in one way and realize they don’t fit. then, just thinking about them in a new way makes sense and feels so much more ‘right’ than any of the [...]
