Sink or Swim?

We are adjusting to our apartment pretty well.  I’ve got Connor enrolled in swim lessons this summer with Ms. Julia.  He is doing okay…but oh my does that kid know how to scream bloody murder!  It’s super embarrassing!  He totally goes CRAZY when he has to float on his back.  Then people start to stare and wonder who he belongs to….I just walk away.  Who’s kid is that anyway???

Ha ha…not really….sorta…kinda….

I got to do a fun photo shoot this past weekend for my friend Sarah and her apparel line WakeMeUp Designs.

We’ve been shopping for school supplies & that list is very specific let me tell ya.  What kind of pencil has an 18 letter name for the brand?  I’m confused and I’m 34.  Still loving my new job and the flexibility it gives me.  I’m also learning a lot and it’s challenging in others.  Overall I’m just feeling very blessed as of late and thanking the Lord for many blessings.  I woke up this morning to check my Facebook feed and one of my good friends I met through blogging years ago, Leslie, had passed away yesterday.  I’m just devastated.  She was so beautiful inside and out and Heaven indeed gained an angel.  She used to laugh so hard when I would say she and Stephen looked like “Barbie & Ken”.  Such a wonderful friend and my heart and thoughts are with her husband and her two small girls.  God I pray your hand over this family…

A GO FUND ME account has been created for Leslie’s two beautiful girls.

It’s times like this that make you realize how fleeting life really is.  In the end we are all only human.  The only thing that makes us whole is God’s love and grace.

Life is short.  The days are long.  Live more, want less, do what you want, and don’t stress.
