I’ve been meaning to sit and actually write something good and heartfelt, meaningful and moving for the last few days now. Okay last couple of weeks. Who am I kidding? Since we moved cross country to a fun and beautiful place and have been hosting houseguests while searching for our new family routine. And I love it. I love the energy. I love the challenge of making a home out of a new house. I love giving myself projects… Like finding the light for photos in my new place. Our previous home had gorgeous morning light spilling onto the bed from my room’s large windows, the wooden planks of our living room drenched in floor-to-ceiling window light and the kid’s rooms yielding a wash of afternoon sun. So my picture taking as of late has been few and far between. My bedroom now let’s the evening sun peek through our patio doors and the living room echoes the same, but other than that? It is a challenge… And something I’m excited to tackle. And the writing I know will come soon, I’m working to make time, and I need to make it happen before I’m crawling into bed about to fall asleep before my feet leave the floor.
Just like figuring out how to juggle fitting in special alone time with each of the kids, and pushing that ever present mommy guilt to the side when I have a call come in with a new project or an email asking about one I should’ve already finished… So I bust out a couple hours of work between lunch serving and bottle feeding. I’m learning what new really feels like. I’m learning where to find the light, both literally… And in everything else.
