Back Again


Goodness, it's been awhile. I decided to dust off my little corner of the internet, give it a new name, and focus on what really matters: snippets of joy. Regardless of external circumstances over the past few years, one thing remains the same – finding the good in the every day. 

It's easy (at least for me) to get overwhelmed with the to-do lists, the pile of dishes in the sink, the "when it rains, it pours" of it all, and I find that searching for that silver lining is what keeps my spirits up day after day. 

Life has continued to chug along since I last visited this space, most excitedly that I'm engaged (!) and in the midst of the final stages of wedding planning. Of course, there has been a certain amount of anxiety when it comes to putting together an event of this magnitude, but I'm comforted by the fact that at the end of that very special day, I'll be the wife of a man who makes me laugh day after day.

Despite the big things that are happening, it's those tiny things that help keep my heart happy. Savoring a latte on a weekend morning, sinking into bed for a Sunday afternoon nap, jogging a little longer than I did the day before, silly Snapchat exchanges with my dearest friends. 

Here's to celebrating the little things! More soon.
