Wow, so much has changed for me since Mother's day. I can't begin to detail it all in one post. I have to process how, and how much to even share. Let's just say that while I have always been honest about my crazy life, I am not sure I was ever fully honest-- even with my self-- about the toll it was taking on me. I have built a big, full, beautiful, life. I have no regrets. I over spent a bit on that big, beautiful life, and I am not talking about money. I am talking about emotional energy, spirit, what ever words you use to describe the hootspah that keeps you showing up for your life every day. I woke up one day realizing that I had messed things up a little. I was "checking out"on my life a bit. Missing out on the moments that matter. Lucky for me, I know perfection is overrated, and while humility isn't alway pretty, it sure is liberating.
It isn't hard to be the Princess when you are surrounded by Rhodes Boys. Big Family life, Adoption, Faith, and all things girly.
