We’ve had a lot of life this week-Elle’s first ballet recital in a 1600 seat auditorium, her preschool graduation (above), the second phase of a kitchen remodel, a bon voyage, a memorial and an anniversary. I’ve been crying on and off for most of it, some tears of sadness but most of joy. Now on top of it all, Coco turns two on Monday and also starts her first day of camp/preschool leaving my home child-free for the first time in five years. A whole twelve hours a week! My cup runneth over is an understatement. I’ve taken a lot from all these events and celebrations, the jist of it is-family, family, family. It’s hard to keep it together and some days I wish I was an island, but when all is said and done if you don’t have your family, you don’t have much. So hug your kids, water your plants, kiss your partner, call your girlfriend, make a baby, take your pup for a walk, visit your neighbor. Whatever kind of family you have, nurture the hell out of it-no man is an island.
So sweet! Congratulations to your little girl. 🙂 I can’t imagine how thrilled she best have been… and you too!
And great advice by the way — the time you have to invest in FAMILY can be overwhelming and tiring most of the time… but in the end, It’s always worth it! 🙂 Family is love, no doubt. <3
Latrina, I totally agree. Worth every exhausting moment:)
You really have been through a lot this week. A lot of big changes! So proud of our littles growing up! xo
