Mean it truly, sincere heart.

When given the question "What inspires me," my mind started racing because in this mess of the world I find inspiration in the most simple things. It's the simplicity of holding a brand new baby girl. It's the feeling I feel when I'm wearing a adorable outfit or a new pair of shoes. It's dancing in the rain just to make life seem just a little bit better, for even a moment. It's the one song that comes on the radio or from your iPod that makes you just want to dance. It's the song that captures the deepest feelings in your heart. I can't imagine a day without laughter and I surely cannot think of anything more inspiring that a warm smile from someone you love. It's the way my heart races every day on the way to the mailbox to see if there is a letter in there for me. I just love each moment I am blessed with.

MY first day of being a senior was one I would like to forget. It was foggy at the senior breakfast which made my hair a big fluffy MESS. I pulled my hair up and tried to hide from everyone the rest of the day(haha). Then I get my schedule and I have a missing class right in the middle of my day. Joy. Then I ended up getting awful cramps. Sadly I want this day to go away. Bubble bath night? OHHHHHH yes.

Knowing thy IMPACT

One day I'll get around to sharing the story about how I applied for and got my new job. I have to say that it most certainly is 100% credited to my Heavenly Father and his plan for my life. Often we don't see the things we need in life until things are put into our path that lead us in a different direction. For the purpose of this post I wanted to share some thoughts being on the outside of the beginning of a new school year. This is mostly for my teacher friends and those who start teaching this year so if you get bored, please do yourself a favor and stop reading. Being a teacher is a tough gig. Daily we make thousands of split-second decisions and impact people in ways we will never fully know the extent of. John Hattie once said, "know thy impact." Each day you'll strive to be better than the day before. You'll hope and pray that your babies (students) will learn something more than just "things." We'll hope and pray that they learn how t...

Dearest Utah

My dear sweet Utah, What an amazing three weeks you've given me. You always will be my home away from home and I will always be grateful for my summers spent with you. Utah, you teach me a lot every single time I'm with you, and this year you've given me much to be thankful for. You have taught me that family is never that far away. You have taught me that life in itself gives great challenges, but those challenges make me stronger. You have taught me that one of my most favorite things is seeing my grandparents hold hands while walking together. You have taught me that the mountains are the most beautiful place in the world. You have taught me that the stars are so much brighter when you are actually looking for them. You have taught me how much I am blessed to have such amazing friends back home. You have taught me that it's okay not to look your best every day. You have taught me that Law & Order: SVU is a slight addiction shared by my cousins and myself. You ha...

COVID

The world of COVID-19 has been a world I never imagined possible. While this time has taken away so many things I am grateful for the things it has given me. I've found my new normal and for someone who loves structure that has been a huge relief. I don't feel the need to do as much. I don't feel as rushed. I dropped my ipad on the tile today and cracked the screen pretty badly and I didn't even cry. Things have become things and my trips to Target don't seem as crucial anymore. I've been sewing. I thank my grandmas and my aunts for their love of sewing that is now ingrained on my heart. I watch a lot of TV. I do a lot of cooking. Who knew?
