About me

Location	Maryland
Introduction	I enjoy writing about our days as a family doing the simple things that make up our life. I began this as a way to retrain myself to focus on every day, even the plain ones; not just on the weekends or special events and plans we have a few times a year. I had fallen into a funk analyzing all the things we didn't have, the places we haven't gone and the millions of things I plan to do but never have enough time for. Something had to be done. I ran across my mother's gratitude journal she began when she had cancer and immediately felt like an idiot. Who am I to complain about the blessed life I have with the most awesome people on the planet? So began my gratitude journal, scrapbook, creative outlet... whatever you want to call it. It has helped so much! I find myself noticing SO much more around me. I try to find the good in all our activities and muster up creative ideas wherever we go. So I keep writing and chasing after my kids with the camera. Maybe one little idea or craft in here will make someone else's plain day special. And that's enough for me.
