Life is full, ever changing, and at times just plain wild. There are two things that remain constant in my life. A love greater than the things around me and coffee. In the past two years I have gotten married, attained a bachelor's degree in elementary education, changed jobs three times, bought a home, and the greatest of all...had a son. In between each of these rights of passage were several cups of coffee and little decisions, some of them great and some of them not so great. I've had moments where I absolutely hated myself, and moments where I saw the true beauty and goodness in my life. What I've learned is, no matter the outcome it's best to embrace life arms wide open. To not stuff the feelings. To not ignore pieces of myself, but to attempt to accept and celebrate each part. I don't claim to be perfect at this but I know the choice to do so will lead me to my best self. Not only for me but for my son, my husband, my friends, and the world around me. I've started this blog to express a more vulnerable peice of myself, I hope as time goes on it encourages you to do the same.
