As I lay here.

As I lay here in bed, ready to close my eyes to usher in a new day, I’m overwhelmed.

Overwhelmed with joy, overwhelmed with love and overwhelmed with gratitude.

Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m absolutely overwhelmed with the expectations, the fact that I have dental work happening tomorrow, financial strain, scheduling, planning, homeschooling and wait what am I making for dinner on a slim budget this week?!

But yet, here I am. Full of peace. Joy. Laughter. and I really shouldn’t be. I should be fixated on those things above.

Or should I?

I mean, regardless of if I fixate on them they will happen. Ready or not.

I’ve often written about coming out of the fog. Getting my pink back and really starting to feel like myself again.

While I know that I’m still a work in progress…as I lay here I feel contentment.

And that is the greatest feeling of all.

About Me

I’m Jess, a wife and mom of 6 that hides behind this blog screen. I’m a color, giltter, sparkle fan, shopaholic, comfort fashionista, dance instructor, and self proclaimed old “vintage loving” soul, who believes in living LOUD and in your true Vibe. Follow along as I figure out life because I’m just here doing the very best I can. Often you’ll find me on the sports field, at a dance competition or taking spotty mirrored selfies of my wacky boho fits.

While I’m not here to rewrite Hemingway, I hope you’ll find a giggle, or a smile somewhere in these posts.

Thanks for stopping by!
