Ella is becoming quite an independent gal. She knows exactly what she wants and LOSES HER S**T when she does not get it. (That 20 month leap, am I right.) At least she can make a decision and stick to it. Can’t say the same for me....or most adults. (I have the hardest time making small decisions. I listen to my gut for the big ones- it’s usually right, too.)
It is my absolute goal to make sure my kids can make healthy and good decisions for themselves, efficiently, effectively and successfully.
The past four years have been tough for a lot of reasons. Lots of things changed for the worse (not naming any names, getting too specific or getting political for once in my life) and, as always, some things changed for the better- there is always good, you just have to look. The past 10+ months have obviously been a challenge for everyone in the world for a variety of different reasons. My only hope is that I’m raising my kids the right way, so that when the time comes, they can stand strong in the face of adversity, they will stand up for what is right and always, always, ALWAYS, stand up for the underdog. When my kids are grown and I’ve done my job, I always want them to remember one thing: We rise by lifting others. Set the bar high. And be the GOOD, the LIGHT in the world. We need more of that.

Obviously just being super casual in my new combat boots and not forcing my engagement ring into the pic, either.
