Little Marlo. The absolute reason for my everything. The thing that draws me closer to the simple perfections in life that would otherwise have gone unnoticed. The little person that keeps me rooted in the “me” that I love most. This little bug keeps me grounded. She’ll never have any clue just how much I love her until she has a bubba of her own. I appreciated and understood my momma so much more after I met Marlo…. 🤔Though it definitely made me wonder why on earth I don’t get a phone call from my mom everyday just because I’m so wonderful in her eyes, haha 😂 And also Gotta give a big momma’s day “thank you” to my kind, incredibly thoughtful, loving (and patient) husband. I could not have been blessed with a more gentle human who is such a driving force of a human. I’ve never met anyone with more motivation and “get it done” mentality, who also has a heart full of compassion and vision. These two were exactly what I needed, exactly when I needed it. And I’m so grateful for how much growth (through ups AND downs) the both of you help me to achieve. Thank you God for my Family.

Just settling into our new home!!! Slowly but surely it’s becoming ours, especially as Marlo makes her mark on it with blueberry smoothie smears 😂. It has so many quirky details (like this window) — the house was built in the 1880’s!!!!! So cool to know that so many other families lived their own lives in this house… Such an incredible thing to think about… Makes me think about the families after us who will be living THEIR everyday lives in this house — they’ll never know Marlo’s little stomping pitter-patter down the hallway, but it will have happened. Makes me think about all the other people’s little “Marlos” who pitter-pattered down the halls…. In the 1800’s!!!! So stinkin’ cool
Time to Hike! when I was growing up my mom used to take me hiking every single day just before sunset and those are some of the best memories I have… I still think back to them and how much I learned and how much she taught me… each day another life lesson that she would talk about on the hike… the simplicity of it all warms my heart. chasing the sun up the mountain before it dipped below the other side. It’s a bit of a nostalgic memory, but doing it all over again but with MY little girl is just everything.
My momma sent me this a little while ago of my 13th birthday. Lol, and little Grey. 😂
And Japan III There’s more but it’s just too much 🙂

I have to make a post about this Indian Restaurant in Melbourne —Baahubali It. Is. Divine. We’re moving out of our current house which is within the delivery zone and within driving range which is a tragedy when you’ve tasted how incredibly yummy this food is. After packing up the last of everything, I made it a point to have this as my last meal in the empty house 😊. Marlo and I sat in the empty living room on the ground and probably would’ve fought each other over the naan if I hadn’t ordered two. We always get the chicken Saagwala and this might’ve been the best one yet. Even Marlo loves it (shoulda seen her happy little spinach cheeks after ☺️) I don’t know what it is about it, but it just tastes like “home.” Anywho…Just want to celebrate a little restaurant that deserves recognition, And a last perfect little happy moment before the next chapter of our lives 😊
🥹 my sweet sweet husband walked through the door and gave me these beautiful, bright, happy flowers… Just because.
