And that?
It's a website dedicated to seeking joy in life, specifically in motherhood. Intentional living, if you may. And that life philosophy? Well, you need to know a bit about me to know what I write about.
My life and how it relates to joy? I've had a decent share of challenging, nitty-gritty, time in the storm days. You know those days? Those are the days where you just want to pull your hair out and you don't know how to pull up your boot straps and you simply feel overwhelmed. Real days.
Through all of this the I've learned the value of living a life loving the little things - the moments - tucked in the fabric of the everyday. And in that is a quest to live joyfully and fully. Now. In this moment. No more waiting for things to get better, no lamenting the time lost, but rather finding joy in everyday - even when the everyday doesn't look perfect. It's in choosing to life today to it's fullest, being thankful, and above all grateful. Gratitude is a choice and is something one must learn. And so on this site it's a celebration of the little things, the moments in life, that matter.
In diaper changes, paying bills, doctor visits,schooling, cooking, gardening, parenting, cleaning, working, laughing, organizing, crying, praying, and in just well, everyday daily life.

Because that's my heart.
It's a finding joy loving the little things embracing the everyday life heart.
